replied all with my order for team lunch tomorrow (carbonara-based workplace bullying events are up 500%)
surely not, I was reliably informed that passing any kind of pro-worker legislation would mean that poor beleaguered big business would never be able to hire ever again
While I am firm in my belief Starmer should go, and soon, isn’t it weird we’ve got sucked into a side argument over the process for a security clearance for Mandelson, the turning down of which had nothing to do with Epstein? It’s the British political class at its worst, I think.
Button-up (or down tbf) shirt and black or blue jeans for me imo
an ode to keir starmer, whose political career ended as it lived (being dragged kicking and screaming to do the thing that was obviously going to happen from the start)
xavi simons why are you, a spurs player, whipping off your shirt in the 78th minute like that isn’t going to manifest the most inevitable late equaliser in the history of the sport
reminds me quite strongly of the “we need to project virility” briefings when they’d just won - it was sending a message that it was *their* party again
Sorry but it is genuinely creepy that this (engaged,36yearold) guy spends his time getting angry that Gen Z women are "intolerant" for not wanting to date someone who supports a sexually abusive, racist misogynist who is destroying the fucking world and making it more expensive to live as we speak
I know he’s also gay but let’s also not lose sight of the huge fucking dogwhistle that is “at odds with family life” about a LGBT+ club
sleepy apex of suburbia embankment apparently!
They wrote that the operation of the club [which is next door to Charing Cross station] in its current form was “fundamentally at odds with family and community life in what is a residential neighbourhood”.
jail! jail! actually jail!
ME: [wincing, covering up Starmer's ears] sorry, do you mind not talking about politics around Keir? He doesn't know about scary things like nuclear war or poverty or Peter Mandelson and we'd like to maintain his innocence for a bit longer
KEIR: my father was a drill bit
ME: that's right Keir!
fishing my membership card out of the landfill to cut it up a few more times

Zack Polanski: I'm a cool guy having a dance maybe
Jeremy Corbyn: Time for a wee purge
Italian American Gnome: Gnever forget Gnine Eleven, oh!
Sins of the (grand)father DO pass on when it’s funny - little known loophole!
An excerpt from a Times article on Facebook: "No-one should be judged by who their parents or grandparents are," Zack Polanski, the Green Party leader pronounced at a recent campaign event - before proceeding to do just that. "But this is a man who is the grandson of Oswald Mosley and still insists on wearing a black shirt every single time he is on TV." The subject of Polanski's vitriol was Louis Mosley who, by dint of genealogy, is the grandson of the 1930s British fascist leader. And his "crime"? Running the UK arm of one of the world's most successful yet controversial technology companies, which has a £300 million contract to bring NHS IT systems into the 21st century”
This is the second Palantir puff piece the Times have put out this week, why are they so horny for peter thiel suddenly

The Davey pitch to Liberal Democrat MPs is essentially: “if I involve you in decisions, god knows what daft announcements you might come out with” while himself making daft announcements.
Tim Pool’s “Sources tell me Charlie is stable. Please God” tweet but I’ve pasted Jonathan Tortoise over Charlie
well that's not how I wouldve done it [guy who 100%ed kerbal space program]
greatly enjoying the transition from rocket footage to bowling alley animations #artemisII
