Can't read it, paywall.

Really? I don’t pay for it.

As I said, the best books [pieces of literature] are those that tell you what you know already.

That's a slur jess. Reform are fine.
Starmers Labour however deploy Soviet tactics and are well known commies. The Mail is right to raise the "Reds under the Bed" alarm

Can't decide if this is tongue in cheek or deadly earnest.

Just watched this week's Question Time on Iplayer and furious, but not surprised, that David TC Davies managed to drag 'Labour Run Wales' into his answer to almost every question. Even the one about the Rwanda scheme. That man is insufferable.

Roll on the GE so we can see the back of Tories in Wales.

Oops sorry, that was the spectator link. Just what kind of patriarchal bullshit was that? Eeewwww

I just opened a letter to find it was a headed letter from the Rt Honourable Rishi Sunak with some guff and a survey to fill in about my priorities.
Was very annoyed about the wasted effort opening the envelope. What a plonker that man is.

He makes me shout at the radio when he’s on Any Questions. He’s spectacularly thick.

Write General Election across it and send it back.

Got similar from Lloyd Russell Moyle. Did the same thing. Plonker would be a polite description of that putrid woman hating arsehole.

He is odious. Life in Wales is no worse than anywhere else in the UK. Everything is underfunded of course and we have kids going to school with no shoes, just like in England.

I wouldn't worry about it. Few people on here would read a publication that described female academics in the terms used in that link from X.

That was just a grotesque male. Many of them about. God I’d hate to share a changing room with that pervy specimen.

The link I posted wasn’t that one. It was referring to work by a man many folk on this post seen to like.

So Liz Truss' publishers are now having to re-edit her book because she included a fabricated quote peddled by antisemitic conspiracy theorists

Notonthestairs · 18/04/2024 21:45

I'm sure Truss will find a way to blame the Deep State for that.

BIossomtoes · 18/04/2024 21:46

Truss clearly isn’t spoiling the habits of a lifetime. It seems that when she was a minister she made civil servants remove sections of reports that didn’t support her prejudice.

There wouldn't have been much of a book if there had been a fact checking process.

One of the things I like about this group is that you offer new things up to read. I do wish you'd draw the line sometimes though. Grin

A boring week would be a welcome change
