When you were being harassed out of the party by Corbynites, journalists and citizens were addressing the rewriting of history around his support for the IRA, Hamas etc. Why? Because high office, like professorship, requires scrutiny.

Was it bent and shit that he gave him the job in the first place? Yes. Is it important enough that we need to exist in the ceaseless flux of 2015-2022 for the rest of our life as Britons, purely because we have acquired the national habit of same? No.

That would make sense if no actresses got chances other than Dakota Johnson. As it is, it suggests the arts have a fixed set of positions that don't fluctuate relative to demand. Which when you look at the sheer amount of content being made, makes no sense.

Jesus christ these people are disgusting. Accusing the Darlington Nurses of wanting to kill people. Demented. 'I guess'.

Of course Jolyon Maugham, who made millions helping corporations avoid paying tax for e.g. comprehensive secondary schools has appointed himself the moral superior of a woman who taught children at a comprehensive secondary school.

The generation of soft left types who grew up with post tumblr Internet and then the actual power of twitter in the tens aligned with a culture and algorithm that backed them up are all on bsky now having chronic withdrawal symptoms from losing that power.

The reason Starmer didn't get involved is because if he did so the entire project of getting labour in power would have been derailed by trans outrage in the party. As it is they got in and Streeting put in place everything terfs had been asking for.

She's an egomaniac and her seat was not won by -her- it was demographics, the labour brand and exhaustion with tories, as shown throughout Kent at the last election. Using a seat won as a Labour MP to endlessly decry Labour for five years is Diane Abbott behaviour.

Honest to god, this fucking country, we have fourteen years of tories and then give labour no time and no chance of making any change. Immediately people switch to reform to give them the fantasy easy wins on problems entirely of reform voters' making.

The fucking Boriswave is a direct result of brexit and austerity, Labour are desperately trying to fix those issues and oh no, we should bin it all off and let the wackier end of torydom have YET ANOTHER go at it all because they'll drown the boats (they won't).

Why wasn't everything sorted within a year of them getting in. They must be SHIT if they can't fix the problems of a country with a fixation on short term solutions to century old problems in a world where America has given up on Europe and our entire economy goes on pensions.

If you can't show a tiny fucking bit of patience you're going to spend the rest of your time on this orb furiously demanding change of a succession of bewildered politicians expected to Make Britain Great Again long after there was any chance of same.

...insisting on using the girls changing room at Oxford Street Top Shop as having opened her eyes and taught her so much. It is so sick. This desire to be seen as right on by misogynist entitled men. By women who have a clear concept on every other type of man. Sick.

A long term smart feminist friend lives there, I talked to her in like 2019 about all the trans stuff and she was even handed about it. A couple of years later and she was completely indoctrinated, praising that grotty guy with the beard who came to prominence for...

Doesn't understand the law but DOES understand what it is to be trans. An ego that could sink a cruiseliner.

Oh my God this is driving me insane at the moment. It's every half hour on BBC and commercial and it is UNBEARABLE. It's a hangover from radio licensing but it means you have 25 mins of nostalgic music and chat and five mins of crushing horror. It's insane.

Taking a decade old thought and interpreting it in a specious and uncharitable way is a central facet of cancel culture.
