And in an absolute ocean of nonsense, dishonesty & weapons grade incompetence, Jacob Rees-Mogg's claim that reaction to the mini-budget has nothing to do with the mini-budget is bobbing about like a top-hatted turd.

It was on Monday that I explained why the government & right-wing, pro-Brexit media would be ramping up refugee hatred to repugnant & unprecedented levels. For fairly obvious reasons. I confess I didn’t think it would move this far this fast. But here we are.

Doing the same thing over & over again in the hope of a different result...

They are clearly blissfully happy together, a fact that embittered purveyors of bile find particularly galling. But it’s the fact that he’d rather be her husband than perched near the top of our ludicrous class system that really boils the piss of professional forelock-tuggers.

Do you remember when people who voted for & claimed to welcome all of this national & generational damage insisted that they loved it all because it upset people like us? Do you remember how they relished 'Remainer tears' even as the country crumbled? I do. And I *always* will.

The team of public figures taking on the Daily Mail highlights the fact that unless you possess enormous financial & emotional resources, you cannot even contemplate challenging a national newspaper. It is a massive flaw in our democratic framework.
83
Millions of people were persuaded by xenophobic, stupid and/or dishonest public figures that they wanted Brexit, austerity & twelve years of Tory rule. Largely because it upset ‘Remainers’ & ‘Libs’. They have a long way to climb down but the process seems to have started at last.

Truss & Kwarteng pinned the economic health of the entire country on the advice of weirdo 'economists' already proved catastrophically wrong about Brexit. 'Lord' Frost is giving interviews claiming that everything's going according to plan. It's Monday.

I know it’s ‘fascinating’ to track every twist & turn of the Tories’ latest psychodrama but, when you step back from ringside, it’s all proof of how utterly screwed they/we are. The country is in deep crisis & most of their MPs are behaving like it’s an episode of Strictly. 1/2

Are we reaching Suez levels of miscalculation & misplaced exceptionalism yet? Asking for (at least) 48% of us.

Anyway, back to the absolute disgrace of bringing Suella Braverman back in to the Cabinet six days after she was fired for gross misconduct…

First word of his Twitter bio is 'Christian'. He's in for a big shock if he ever reads the Bible. twitter.com/The_TUC/status…

The continuing delusion that Brexit was in any way a good idea has turned the Tory party into a place where stupidity is rewarded & incompetence promoted. This, when you think about it, was absolutely inevitable. It can’t end until someone in the party starts telling the truth.
91
It's as if the speech and the appointments were made by completely different people.
92
What fresh hell is this?

It's always been blindingly obvious that Meghan was a victim of racism from within the Royal household. There may be other reasons for refusing to believe this but I can only think of one: racism. In fact, the louder the accusations of lying, the more racist the accuser must be.

@richardaeden Look it up, I'm not Google. But I'll retweet your question in case other people can be arsed to help you out. The answers might distract you from peddling shite about Meghan for a bit. But I doubt it.

What’s happening now isn’t an aberration, it’s a culmination.

M People singer Heather Small's son is a Labour councillor.

Hunt is now undoing all of the promises that Truss made to become leader *and then kept*. Her position is completely & obviously unsustainable.

Never cross the anti-growth coalition.

Wow. He’s completely together, sorted & clear. Articulate, compassionate, empathetic & at peace. It’s incredible to watch. The maddest thing is that the more he’s boiling your piss, the more you’d benefit from the sort of therapy that’s set him so free. Not even missing Midsomer!
