They didn’t. Because Brown accused a woman of being a bigot, when maybe she only expressed bigoted views.
And as for the bacon sandwich… well, I’ll try to eat one more chaotically, but I might not succeed
I would like to suggest that things might not be quite this shit if Brown or Miliband had won an election
It’s always “Mr Bun the Baker” that does it for me! 🤣
Happy Easter @sturdyalex.bsky.social, Christ is risen!
I’m just waiting for you on FT this weekend. No pressure… ;)
You are Gareth Keenan and I claim my ÂŁ10
@mrjamesob.bsky.social may I propose “Osbourne’s Axe”?
A razor would seem to be far too much of a precise instrument
That is so wonderful
A guy in New York sees a sign advertising “Piss on his grave for $10”.
He eagerly pays his money, only to be told to go to San Francisco.
“What? They buried him in California?”
“No. That’s the back of the line.”
He blocked me because I pointed out he should have made sure he had the Johnson interview in the bag before the Corbyn one was broadcast in 2019. Not that it probably would have made much difference, or indeed been for the better if it had
“This president that you spoke to, Mr President: is he in the room with us now?”
@sturdyalex.bsky.social pedantry alert 🚨 although Royal Mint coins are legal tender, a shop is well within its rights, to refuse coins as payment. They can accept payment in whatever form they want (not that it would be a good business model.) Legal tender refers exclusively to court debts.
“Ya want some?”
If I’ve guessed correctly, “tvättbjörn” is a wonderful word for raccoon!
In every relationship, there is one person who loads the dishwasher like a Swedish architect, and another
like a raccoon on meth.
How strong (or “strong”) is it now?
I was on a train from Leuchars to New Street, and the buffet car was closed “for operational reasons”.
I found an Indian restaurant near Darlington, phoned ahead, and they met me on the platform.
I tipped well!
Wasn't David Davies holding one of them round the wrong way so the EU could see it too?
Gotta be honest, didn’t have “Ed Davey goes after the Reform vote” on my bingo card
I thought, for some reason, that was Ian Lavender until I zoomed in!
What does the US flag code have to say about (incorrect) Stars and Stripes tattoos?
They’re in the pay of the regime in so far as if they’re not seen to be suitably supportive of said regime, their residence permits might not be renewed so easily…
Didn’t know the Green Party had any MPs in the North East…
@mrjamesob.bsky.social I broke a bed late at night once (no sniggering - I just sat down heavily on the edge). Not having enough books at that time I got the jack from the car and jacked it up solid overnight and then the building maintenance fixed it the next day
Wonder if Liz Truss is considering becoming a republican again...?
@mrjamesob.bsky.social A man and his son are in a car accident. Unfortunately, the father dies at the scene, but the son survives and is taken to A&E.
The surgeon looks at the patient on the table and says, “I can’t operate on him; that’s my son.”
How is this possible?
Is that not an episode of Blackadder the Third? ;)
Growing up about as far as it’s possible to be from the sea in Britain, some of my earliest memories are from the seaside (well, Weston-super-Mare, which has sea for about 4 hours a day)
It’ll be Rob Brydon rather than Rob Beckett, but yes, I’m afraid you’ll still have been shafted Mark
Who's writing this nonsense; there is no way that Trump managed to use "chagrin" correctly.
