Sorry, I’m terrified beyond the capacity for rational thought.

Have a 1.5kg steak en route. Could have gone up to 3kg. But that would obviously kill me.

In a similar vein, the data showing that Albanian nationals are hugely over-represented in British prisons ignores the fact that the Albanian population in Britain is heavily skewed toward drug dealers.

Which is ridiculous, as the overwhelming majority of sexual offences are committed by young men. And Afghan populations in the UK are heavily skewed toward young men. So you are not comparing a like-for-like population. 5/

The volume of propaganda pumped out by the BBC—even, as we now know, unto the embedding of government staff inside the corporation—is gobsmacking in itself, but it also exposes the fatuousness of people who obsess about GBNews.

Nut job progressives seemingly dedicated their lives to making feel guilt for empire. The direct approach failed. But damn if they didn’t succeed by just doing their day jobs. Australia, New Zealand, Canada… mental.
Australia’s sex discrimination commissioner has confirmed in senate estimates that men who claim to be women are covered by breastfeeding protections in the sex discrimination act.

Honestly, no offence to London and whatnot, but the notion of Oxford Street as "the nation's high street" is one of the most ramshackle conceits I've encountered in some while, unless it's supposed to be some sort of grim metaphor, in which case, perhaps.
Last night, the nation’s high street went traffic-free - just in time for Christmas.

I just remembered that a shadow chancellor pulled out Mao’s Little Red Book at the dispatch box, quoted form it approvingly, then tossed it at the Chancellor. Feels like I dreamed it. But that actually happened, right?

So… watched Twins with the lad. Wife using hazy memory thought Running Man would be acceptable. So watched that. Then he told me he really likes Arnold. This is good. So we watched Kindergarten Cop. Question is, where to go next.

The lad is 7 now. I don’t want to watch Jingle. Only saw Last AH at the cinema and don’t want to watch that. Though that might be selfish. And never intend to watch the pregnant one.

Thinking Terminator is a bit too much. And Predator defo is. Conan B is borderline for 7. Hmmm. True Lies then I guess?

Not sure why 60 members of a particular faith being killed isn't just a massacre, rather than a 'massacre', but perhaps because they are Christians and the BBC deplores Christianity.

Looking into the Renewable Transport Fuels Obligation and we appear to be importing used cooking oil from Taliban run Afghanistan to make biodiesel.

Social media is indeed screwing things. And I don’t have an answer for that. But good governance and accepting reality over high status opinions would go get over most of it. Can you have that with social media? I don’t know. But the whining politicians in office have a say.
