She was also very nice to me when I was going through a very low period a couple of years back (missus tried topping herself after PIP nightmare etc and i was on the verge of doing myself in tbh).

sometimes just an encouraging and sympathetic comment from a stranger on twitter can mean something when you are going through shit times.

Frances Ryan is one of the nicest public-facing people on Twitter. People who aggressively don’t acknowledge that DLA/PIP are there for disabled people in or out of work regardless of income are just arseholes.

suzy, Wednesday, 7 August 2019 20:26 (four years ago) link

some people are just incapable of thinking (could stop there tbh) of how problematic it is for people with physical or other disabilities to travel from a to b or simply just exist in this country. I think Frances is saying the media rhetoric has made it easier for nasty governments like we have had in recent times to make the unthinkable quite acceptable, and it has predictably resulted in deaths and disenfranchisement and lowering living standards for disabled people, and nobody cares. fuck these people.

Inevitably she is a Liberal Democrat. Also she has 12 other great songs on her website.

"Vote Leave Break the Law" is especially noteworthy.

On a plane to Romania today I bumped into @CelticFC fans who invited me to join them watch their team play @CFR_1907_Cluj. So I did.@Oedouard22 impressed along with Celtic's discipline and determination.

Great match and Celtic got a vital away goal to take into the second leg. pic.twitter.com/iousSvzoXd

I suppose he has to get himself over to Denmark tonight to hang out with some Rangers fans. I wouldn't recommend it though.

The mirror article about this deserves a Pulitzer


The Labour leader was on his way for a short break in Romania when he got chatting to some fans on the plane.



Next thing he knew he was in Transylvania, posing for pictures in the away end for the Hoops’ clash against CFR Cluj.


The best.

Another fan wrote: “Am so confused why did we just bump inty Jeremy Corbyn outside a swally shop in Romania on a Wednesday night after the fitbaw.”

privatise the bbc

New research shows 43% of UK adults don't pay income tax.

Do those who pay it deserve more say in how tax- funded public services are run?

That's what @EmmaBarnett is asking pic.twitter.com/CTLzpXv7Pa

should disabled people be allowed to speak in public? should the elderly be allowed to vote? do low-earners even have a soul?

the tories spend years yanking an unprecedented number of low earners out of any tax-bracket (I had had years where I've been close to paying no tax for this reason) in order to weaponise it against those same people as "undeserving." No mention in this clip of the comparable amount of tax evaded by the super-rich who are still allowed to dictate everything about how the country is run.

liquidate the bcc, apart from R3 and the in our Time program. Even the weather forecasts are shit and unreliable since the Met Office lost the contract.

I'll keep my thoughts about Josie Jump to myself!

I was talking to some random quite posh bloke in the pub about the bbc and we both were R4 listeners in our 20's in the 90's. I was asking him if the abysmal straight from CCHQ standard of impartiality was there in the Blair years because I eschewed much of the political content back then. he reckoned it was probably just as bad, but i'm not convinced it was, but struggle to remember.

Cummings giving an interview on Sky so early in this game is a bad look for a master of the dark arts. Be interesting to see if Grieve and a couple more are pushed out by his antics.

Labour leadership have been good at stamping the silly government of unity idea and making moves towards the SNP.

Hopefully conference season can be scrapped.

but, yes I have been locked in pubs before on away match sorties with lots of troglodytes singing no surrender to the IRA...

calzino, Thursday, 8 August 2019 10:26 (four years ago) link

As one senior Labour source put it: “Scottish Labour is in dire straits and it appears the UK leadership have decided to write-off the party’s chances north of the Border.

“There’s no other explanation for pulling the rug out from under a loyal ally like Richard in the way they have.

“It looks like Corbyn is laying the groundwork for a backroom deal with the SNP which might get him into power but at what cost to the UK?”

if we get a hard brexit a future independent scotland seems pretty much inevitable anyway, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Barnett was born on 5 February 1985 to convicted criminals, Ian and Michele Barnett. Her father, Ian Barnett, 56, a former surveyor, was jailed for three years and eight months after pleading guilty to keeping brothels with a turnover of more than £2.5m in Manchester City centre, Levenshulme and Cheetham Hill, as well as trafficking women for prostitution. Emma Barnett certainly knew of her parents illegal business as the Police found emails between Mr Barnett and his daughter Emma, talking about his `whores'.

she seems nice

The apple doesn't fall far from the tree, it seems. Have previously had no opinions on her either way but I happened to watch Newsnight last night and, Jesus, she was annoying in a post-Paxman pointlessly confrontational way.
