It’s Bendy’s birthday! To celebrate I gifted him a great exhibition idea - but he didn’t seem convinced!

I see Farage now hates emigration as well as immigration. The trouble is, he’s a big part of why people are emigrating. Brexit has made the U.K. a less attractive place for everyone.

The current cider fridge offering at the Two Tailed Lion in Leicester. I honestly can’t comment on most of these but I would say that if you absolutely have to drink cider, the Galipette Cidre is pretty good.

Taberna "Pottoka", Zaragoza 🇪🇦 1st visit. Definitely one of the highlights so far. Basque country intruding on Aragon here with Cider, punk alternative tones and a pintxos range for everyone. Activist boozer that's instantly casual, friendly and likable. 👍🍏🍺

I read Caitlin Thomas’s memoirs last year and thoroughly didn’t enjoy it, but like a scab that must be picked.

The broken Fridge has now been laid to rest at Welland Recycling Centre, which means tonight’s is a use-em-up tea, in particular a bit of Grasmere Chorizo which I must say is very good.

‘Labour are still utterly shit scared of provoking the Hard Right and their Little Englander followers by addressing this’, analysis by Mark on his Sofa this morning suggests…
The UK is losing up to £250m a day in lost tax revenue due to the economic impact of Brexit, House of Commons Library analysis for the Lib Dems suggests.

Brexit has blown a "black hole of [up to] £90 billion a year in the public finances" the party says. Even under lower estimates the hit is ~£65bn
