Nativist bullshit. By your logic 19th century Jews, Irish, and Italians weren't constituencies. Naturalized citizens ARE immigrants.

Probably does that too.

"The Light Horse of the LSE"? At least Larkin bothered to rhyme it.

I think the fact he leads an openly racist party is more relevant than his saying the quiet parts out loud as a callow youth.

Today he's musing on the enigma of why the English don't learn foreign languages. FFS.

It was waiting for the right messenger. Romney wasn't it.

Ha!

Also, great craftwork and location shooting.

Everything isn't gender. Everything is race. After that, everything IS gender. And if you think everything is class, shit, I can't help you, sorry.

Yep. Dashiell Hammett never told you what records his dude listened to, or what brands he was wearing. Likewise Ross Macdonald. (Who was far superior to Chandler as a writer. Fight me.)

He ran with the Manafort/Assange meeting story, and the "Kremlin minutes of the Trump compromat operation". The Guardian published a four page spread of the latter, never retracted. Just really shitty journalism.

Belmondo + Mcgowan = Josh O'Connor!

The racial coding around "rock" is also a fucking trip.

Up there with "as a socialist, I don't believe in tipping."

Truly the "soft bigotry of low expectations." Speaks to an English conception of class as some kind of biological reality. Maybe David Brooks could take them out to lunch?

The smug, delusional characterization of racism as somehow "unBritish" in this whole story is really something.

Still think it's too long though.

He's grinning like he just fucked it.

Such a beautiful country until Donald Trump invented racism.

Tory scandals are about sex, Labour scandals are about money. Scandals in the racist party are about racism? Doesn't really hurt him, does it?
