I've just sent a slightly edited version of this template to my MP and urge everyone else to do the same. It takes five minutes. The EHRC is not fit for purpose and its Code will do untold damage to community, business and human rights for all. Thanks.

Glorious morning for a bike ride despite the wind. Need to do more, though, as I was out for the count after just 56km. #bikesky #autumnalcolours #knackered

Eldritch house with green moss
Sound of ordinary on the waves
Tiles drip from its roof
Home secretary has a weird look

Was trying to think of a decent pub in SE London where I could sit quietly and read my book and I honestly can't think of any. So I've just stuck a 'sharing' bottle in the fridge and that'll have to do. Yes, I am middle aged. #quietpub #dearth #gapinthemarket

Yeah, I know. FWP and all that. Just got ready for a bike ride and discovered my electronic shifting battery is out of juice. Bellendedly didn't check it last night like a berk. #bikesky #fwp #bloodysram

Every single one of those rent-a-gob wankers who fell over themselves to get on TV so they could condemn the banning of Maccabi fans should be dragged back into the studio to explain to viewers how the Israeli police are now in some way antisemitic. And then barred from TV studios permanently. cunts
