I agree. It's inherently stupid to try and stop a theft when you have no personal stake in it (your employer is richer than you and who cares about a few choc eggs) but sacking someone for one incident seems excessive.
The "Is he dead yet?" energy is quite strong there.
They shouldn't have ever allowed him on the show. I'm so close to switching off the whole thing.
That constant "we're going to have a problem" actually sounds really threatening to me. That guy's so toxic it's unreal.
That man should have never been allowed on the show, he is unbearable.
Such a pit(t)y.
I HAVE THE SAME SCORE AS YOU. BOOM.
I like him already!
Who was he?
This ban is stupid and hurting all women.
Not everything revolves around the US. 🙄
When I moved to London as a German citizen, I was allowed to vote in local elections only but not general ones or the Brexit referendum which in hindsight was a hilariously bad decision not to open this up to everyone living here. Now I can vote for everything and also still in all German elections.

I have so many questions...
And everyone else who has this day in May as it should be.
Oh dear, just when you need to change the name!
I've lived in London for 23 years now. I've lost a scarf once and didn't get it back. I blame Sadiq of course.
That'll probably buy ten e-books.
Some European citizens can vote in some elections. I don't know about by-elections.
But Garage is right in one thing: I'm foreign-born (dual citizen now) and I would NEVER vote for the scrote.
Love it.
How Much I Dislike the Daily Mail I would rather eat Quavers that are six weeks stale, blow dry the man bun of Gareth Bale, listen to the songs of Jimmy Nail, than read one page of the Daily Mail. If I was bored in a waiting room in Perivale, on a twelve-hour trip on Network Rail, halfway through a circumnavigational sail, I would not read the Daily Mail. I would happily read the autobiography of Dan Quayle, 1001 Things You Can Do With Kale, selected scripts from Emmerdale, if it meant I didn’t have to read the Daily Mail. Far better to stand outside in a storm of hail, scratch a blackboard with a fingernail, be swallowed by a humpback whale, than have to read the Daily Mail. If I was blind and it was the only thing in Braille, I still would not read the Daily Mail. Brian Bilston
Today’s poem is called ‘How Much I Dislike the Daily Mail’.
It kind of never was. People were told it was God's will who was king, and if there was a battle that dethroned said king, that apparently was God's will too and nothing to do with a spear through his heart, of course.
You, sir, are an arse.
Got my 500 reviews badge on @netgalley.bsky.social! Now all I need is the auto-approved badge to complete the set. 💃🏼

I haven't ironed in years.
Pretty much, yes. Average life expectantly was terrible and infant mortality extremely high. You had ten kids so maybe two would make it into adulthood. Childbed fever killed so many women.
Thanks, please do this reminder every week!
