Watching the Olympics on telly today, grateful its on the BBC. However, do we really need the prolonged solemnity and period of national mourning following the failure of the British pair to win a medal in the curling?
Please, just enjoy the sport.

A hearty "F*** you" to those within Labour who vilified Jeremy Corbyn and welcomed Mandelson with open arms.
Happy with yourselves?

Reform now just needs to recruit Patel, Braverman and Johnson to have the full set of numbskulls who fucked up the country in the first place. Seriously, who votes for these people?

What's the matter with world leaders. Their job is literally to make the lives of their citizens better, so how about spending more time doing that rather than comparing dick sizes?

Its been a depressing few years in UK politics. The Brexit vote in 2016. The election of Johnson as PM in 2019 - bluster, bollocks and the inevitable fallout, followed by Liz Truss and her cloud cuckoo budget. Finally a Labour government, but one with no Labour values. Next ... Reform? Fuck me.

Visiting Seville cathedral today; first impressions - architecture and craftsmanship stunning. Swift follow-up thoughts - I've just paid to admire the obscene accumulation of wealth looted and hoarded over centuries in the name of organised religion.

Everything is wrong.
Fascist populism is gaining power across the world.
Unfettered capitalism is stretching the gap between rich and poor to breaking point.
An elite class is emerging that is above the law.
The media is controlling the agenda.
Time is running out, people.

Simple question: Why is far-right nationalism seen by so many as the answer to a country's problems?
Are there any genuine examples of successful long-term far-right governments?

"Worried about immigration? Starmer says you're racist"
So says the Daily Mail today. A blatant lie. Fuck the Mail and everyone who works on it, and fuck Farage and everyone who votes for him based on this sort of sensationalist shite.

On BBC Politics Live, the Trump apologist repeatedly mentioned the President's use of 'hyperbole' to highlight issues that otherwise wouldn't be discussed. What absolute bollocks. Call it what it is: lying. I can only assume dipshit maga cultists just lap up this shit as 'fact'.

Our government is at this very moment appeasing a self-confessed Fascist. It's not going to look good when the tide turns.
I am a United States Marine and I have just been designated a terrorist by the president of the United States.
I am antifa.
