anyway, i'm not reading the whole article, is it about her not being racist or about her not shilling for Murdoch etc? she's quite right it would be patronising sexism to assume her terrible opinions are the result of some svengali figure, i'm sure she's capable of having her own terrible opinions for money.

also since we know she consistently lies and dissembles about her upbringing and class background, why should we assume anything else she says is true?

who the fuck puts up with a fractured ankle every couple of years unnecessarily.
Hi dere - football injury written off as a sprain that gets really fucking sore every once in a while and doc thinks it was probably fractured and probably never quite healed but probably not worth the surgery as it always settles down again.

I have a piece of metal screwed into and holding my right ankle together after breaking it really badly 12 years ago, and it gives me excruciating pain. And also I have problems with my left ankle because of it compensating for how dysfunctional my right is. Yet I still walk at least 50 miles a week, without recourse to self-victimising melodramatic bullshit or taking 50 grand cheques off dodgy property developers or bullying pizza hut staff during a pandemic! Fuck off Jess!

if you are wanting an impartial expert to give opinions on modern Russia you are perhaps better off not listening to someone with a history of extreme western chauvinism and a Scruton apologist and someone's whose history books are basically no better than the publishing wing of the victims of communism foundation .

don't know anything about kevin the cat, but as much as I moan about the bloodthirstiness of cats and them constantly shitting in my garden and murdering birds at my feeding station. Earlier I saw a sparrowhawk with a small bird in its talons, screaming in agony as it flew over my head into a garden. And it gave me a proper fuck you and mind your own business look when I peered over the hedge to see it finishing the poor bird off on the grass. But still this was a magnificent creature!

christ that Duffield thing about overcriminalising nitrus oxide ought to embarrass Starmer, but the law + order cop loving tory prick probably agrees. The type of wankers his leadership has emboldened are beyond contempt, this isn't even milliband labour it's more like a particularly horrible 2001 vintage of blairism.
