Dan upon learning of Bidens victory:

I’m hoping the Secret Service know that such a fence can be breached by someone armed only with a Twix

Owen Jones view on Biden

 

I'm a non-believer, but if Hell exists, that man would have a first class ticket there.

A monster who belongs in jail.

 

He seems to have given up any semblance of journalism in a quest for likes and retweets. Interestingly the US left seem to be coalescing around Harris.

Harris hasn't got it yet...does Obama want it decided at the DNC convention?

DNC is 4 weeks away yet, that would leave only 3 months before polling day and surely they can see that another month squabbling amongst themselves isn't going to help.

maybe some think there should be more democratic legitimacy to Harris standing, maybe some would prefer a different candidate. Difficult to see anyone other than Harris at moment though, and as you say need to get on with it.

How the f**k do you get tweets to show up!?

Stevie had to explain this to me too.

 

Paste the link > change the x.com to twitter.com > Cut the link and re-paste > change the rich text to plain text and it should work.

I get that and it's a reasonable argument although it didn't seem to bother the tories when we needed to change PM's all those times. 

 

Whichever way they go about it, they just need to stop the public internal arguments and let Biden turn the focus back on Trump.

It’s actually quite hilarious how little they seem to have on Kamala. She’s very much been in the background for Biden’s 4 years so hasn’t given them ammunition there, and her biggest downside seems to be that she was pretty tough on crime when she was a District Attorney, but Republicans whole thing is being tough on crime. So far, all they seem to have is that she’s a woman, of colour, and appears to laugh a lot…

 

Lots of stuff coming out about how Trump’s whole strategy has been to attack Biden specifically and now that he’s out, they’ve got f**k all. Apparently even JD Vance was chosen as VP because that were so sure they were gonna beat Biden that they didn’t even bother choosing a VP who could bring in undecided voters - they just went full MAGA loyalist instead thinking it wouldn’t matter.

f**k sake, last one just seemed to sort itself out so I was hoping this one would too. 

I sorted that one out for you.🤣 I think the trick is once you've changed it to twitter.com, you then have to either copy it, delete the original and re-paste or cut it and re-paste. When I do it on ios it tells me that it has been pasted as rich text or something with an option to change to plain text. When I do that it automatically embeds it.

      I am very possibly wrong about this but I do think that the pitch you get allocated appears to be related to your time of arrival, (i.e. you get the next one available) rather than the price you paid for a small, medium or large pitch.  They all appear to be the same size to me.

      Liddle: "Drop a small nuclear bomb on Glastonbury to immediately remove from our country almost everybody who is hugely annoying.”   Farage: Free speech!    Polanski: accepts a collaboration on 20 innocuous looking set of photos on instagram but doesn't notice that one that says 'making plans for Nigel' with a guillotine image.   Farage: I expect the MET police to arrest him.

      I take my lad to the local non-league club - Royston Town - not he's 13, he goes there with his mates and he plays in their youth team.  Not many people there - lucky if they hit 800, but lovely supporting the town team.  I've took him to some league clubs too - Cambridge and Stevenage are great to visit and not crazy prices - his first one was Cambridge v Sunderland (I'm a mackem) when they were in league 1, so a great experience for him.  The England matches aren't too bad value either at Wembley - it's just the parking that stings you. Problem is, he's a City fan, so at some point have to bite the bullet and get him up to the Ethiad. Have done the tour, but he'd love a proper game....my wallet, less so!

      Legend Slot candidates 2027

      Said it before, but if Annie Lennox is available next year, then it would be an absolute crime to instead book anyone else. She's rare and legendary enough that you drop all other plans.
