Johnny Beattie's daughter meanwhile is President of Equity.

there is family around the corner from me with a car sticker on their motor that says something like Ban Stupid Owners - Not The Dogs. And they don't even have a dog!

Good take imo (speaking as a former dog owner).

you just couldn't face your dog anymore after you got into the puppy smuggling game, admit it!

At 93, that's impressive... oh, you mean, John Beattie.

do people really use animal shock collars? that is some degenerate cruelty

There is a non-negligible possibility I am at a a conference with members of the Livestock Worrying Police Working Group at the moment, I will dig deeper.

What's with the purge of left wing twitter accounts? Any media on this yet?

Swinson* reaching peak Swinson by having been drawn as a squirrel squared with this thread going over Mark E. Smith's mowing of squirrels the other night <3

* shame she's called Swinson and not Swanson. There's a Longmont Potion Castle bit about a Swanson begging to retroactively be about her.

xp

Where i live farmers put up notices saying please put your dogs on the lead, there are young lambs and sheep in this field. I respect the fuck out of that and get the subtext that even if your dog is a cutie labbie who hasn't got a bite in him - we will still execute the fucker with a shotgun.

I was talking to someone in the vets waiting room the the other day telling me I should get a naughty cage for my dog #nationofdoglovers

Ugh I don’t think I could ever crate a dog.

oh it is vile, don't get one if you can't care for it properly

Well, blow me down, McDonnell bigging up Gordon Brown and Tony Blair and namechecking Harold Wilson on Newsnight. Newsnight taking a peculiar tack on this manifesto - that it's not radical enough.

Wild-eyed left wing firebrand Barry Gardiner somewhat bemused by this line of questioning.

wild - emma barnett attacking barry gardiner from the left on private schools

crating is not necessarily cruel, though i don't hear of the crate being used for disciplinary purposes, some dogs find it comforting when the owners are out.

at least one member of the cabinet

yeah - greyhounds e.g. tend to like their crates as they're familiar with them from the racecourse

ate my chinese inside. voting tory.

I don't believe for a second any living creature is happy to sit in a cage.

if the bbc say it's not radical then it ain't *Harold Wilson statue gives knowing wink*

xps to calz there are some shit owners out there alright. When we lived in n16 the park near us had deer and people were always letting their unleashed dogs at or near them and some were even killed :(

cutest thing in the manifesto is the bit about reviewing the allotments act like WOW I WONDER WHO WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR THAT

utterly bizarre interview. welcome comrade barnett - let's liquidate private schools

ate my chinese inside. voting tory.

I recently saw Jamelia promoting an event trying to raise money and awareness for homelessness, possibly was bbc breakfast news. She seems sound tbh

If not bbc breakfast, sky or all jazerra equivalent

i'm voting Labour again. The scratchcard I thought I'd won a grand on, only had 3 quid on it. It was a word search one and I'd accidentally scratched the F and made it look like an E ffs!

;_;

Ah no, fuck that :(

fuuuuck

You inspired me to go out and get one of those and I won 6 quid. That’s the labour way

Jesus Christ, Question Time in Bolton, wall-to-wall gammon. Some utter moron arguing the toss about not being in the top 5% earners despite earning over £80,000 a year.

The first two people to speak both agreed with the Labour manifesto in principle but:

1. Rich people will leave the countty.

2. I remember the *70s and we'll have union barons running the country.

(*he looked like he might have been born in the 70s tbf)

yeah we all died of starvation when the rolling stones fucked off to france in the 70's

can't believe I know Jenrick's voice so well, but didn't recognise his face on that quiz last night (even tho i guessed the question correct). What an utter cunt!

calzino ;(

This bizarre goggle-eyed Telegraph journalist on QT saying there's too much respect and reverence for facts LOL

omg Rory Stewart offering support for the fallen while not denying being in mI5

Proper tears in the rain moment finding out TBEUs been ripped up@RoryStewartUK i know you had your differences with @streathamrover but can you ask MI5 to sort this out? An attack on free speech during an election.

Of course I’m on it - thanks for the heads-up - and my very best wishes to #tbeu - what a tragedy - someone will be at the club tonight at 11pm - wearing a club strip and carrying a copy of the Tooting Trumpet - you can trust them.

— Rory Stewart (@RoryStewartUK) November 21, 2019

He is surely MI6 tbfttl.

Lol at least scratchcard fail made for some lols and it inspired me to apply for a provisional driving licence. Cos you need photo id to claim prizes of a grand or over. If you've actually won them that is. But having photo id is seeming increasingly important as we go forward into this new era!

Lol chuka talking about Boris letting the queen down.

Oh Calz, that sucks.

Watching QT. Telegraph woman is actually thick, gammon on 80k miffed at a tax schedule that would have him pay a tenner extra a month got told by half the audience that yeah you ARE in the top five percent (that’s how averages work) Jenrick trying to say faux fact-checking shenanigans are Westminster insider BS despite someone in a Northern audience bringing it up in disapproval, and idiots placing the blame with Labour for austerity. AAAAARGH.

Plus Richard Burgon, who is shite. That's it, I've had enough.

not sure why anyone puts themself through the ordeal of watching QT tbh

Yeah I never read anything about it apart from here and it’s really bad for me blood pressure, fuck watching it

Burgon just gave a good answer re: Andrew and VAWG.

If you think Burgon is shit listen to that oily tory twat getting clapped for swerving a question by talking about heroic firefighters, even though they got blamed for Grenfell

not sure why anyone puts themself through the ordeal of watching QT tbh

That vacuous telegraph columnist barely has a functioning brain. Wtf is she ever talking about
