wow that's impressive, cameron is being interviewed by cumberbatch playing cummings was my first thought.

Also

Lots of news around yesterday, but important this doesn't get missed: Tory MPs 'less likely' to help black people to register to vote, UCL study suggests.https://t.co/4Of17bLqQD

lol that doesn't really change my assessment

does "fantasy" imply things that the respondent has not done because i have questions

I think we all have questions

I know a LD & they have him bang to rights tbh

"Sex with a sports star" in Theresa May's fantasises they always finish with a post-coital offer of a knighthood

Have we done this yet? Should be unsurprising to everyone here and I'm not sure about the numbers but it's getting some traction.

Big scoop from @Byline_Media - extraordinary amounts of money amounting to £8.3bn placed by Boris Johnson and Vote Leave backers on a no deal crashout on 31 October #DisasterCapitalism https://t.co/VvFutCmKwt pic.twitter.com/WvV2D1d1NA

Very dark part of me suspects that stories like this aren't so much ignored, it's just that they make Johnson and No Deal slightly more popular among the plain people of england

xxp can we identify lanyard prick in the background feels like he's a) very ridiculeable and memeable b) some tory boy prick who deserves it

We could but that’s TM’s husband right beside her

Wait for a second there I thought the lanyard guy was former narnia actor skandar keynes

that's Curran of the Tom persuasion

This is a counter to that story posted by Matt:

"the vast majority of fund managers in our data set were not simply unlucky, they were genuinely unskilled"

lines you read in an adam curtis voice

I believe several studies have shown that totally random investment choices/choices made by monkeys pointing at the financial pages make more money than investment choices by fund managers.

Alexei would be at home on our thread

more power to the talentless unfunny shouty wanker, but I'm not clicking on that!

It’s funny. He lives around the corner from me, and gave me a communist bike once.

he gave you a what now

Xp
When he used to ruin episodes of the young ones when I was a kid he taught me an important lesson : all stand up comedians are not remotely funny and bad.

I should have known even the Tankie’s Tankie wouldn’t raise a smile around here.

I have seen the communist bike and it is as described.

More Maoist than Stalinist iirc

the other night i heard a joke from his current Radio 4 show about Idris Elba as James Bond and it made me give a little chortle and then i thought about ILX and i felt bad

If we’re talking communist bikes, how about the time the Telegraph paid someone to dissect an image of Corbyn getting on his (communist) bike?

Every time I've bumped into some of his R 4 stuff in recent years I feel like he's even more unfunny than I remembered him

Of course the Telegraph zoomed in not once but twice on both crotch and gnawed-at-saddle xp

I’m not going to cast aspersions on the person who commissioned that article, but I think it’s fairly obvious they had a weird kink for that image, going by the number of times it appears in the piece.

Mark Steel is another comedy dud the broadsheets hired to write something rambunctiously chortlesome about Corbz as well

i can only say that by some small degree the 80s SWP stand-up crew are at least morally preferable to today's angling-for-my-own-panel-show-about-centrist-biscuits-on-Dave stand-up crew

mark will be along shortly to correct me as to the precisely delineated ideological alignment of 80s stand-ups

a friend of mine is mates with a comedy writer who once got hired to write some material for Gryf Rhys Jones who apparently said he didn't want anything less than "rambunctiously hilarious" so they do have industry standards!

"sorry, I can only do you rib-ticklingly mirthful at best"

I'd say if a comedian was complete tory I wouldn't care if they were funny, but the most "out" tory comedian right now seems to be Geoff Norcott who makes that shtick his entire act and he's a poisonous alt-right pimple alright.

if a comedian was funny i wouldnt care what they were rly

nb theres like three funny comedians none of em tory afaict

and one of them was cancelled by the bbc for being too weird or something.

last two darragh posts both correct

If Corbyn were a true communist he’d be riding an Orbea (Basque Workers Coop bike manufacturer)

is it 5 or 10 years since 'I hate stand-up' became the new 'I don't even own a TV'

i don't have netflix

i don't even own a stand-up comedian

not hard to pwn the average comedian

stand-up is the pits vs I once injured myself with rambunctious laughter during a Dominic Holland set at edinburgh fringe!
