  1. Speaking of wind-ups, this isn't bad as publicity stunts go https://news.paddypower.com/world-cup-2018/2018/06/12/russia-10k-gay-goals-paddy-power-charity-world-cup/
  2. Or https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-lincolnshire-44480646
  3. I've got Peru to reach at least the QFs and Iceland to finish bottom of their group. Also, this shithousery:
  4. Cheers for mentioning that, had missed it. Caught up on both episodes last night, good stuff.
  5. He doesn't even understand why his own children will end up resenting him in the long run, so let's not tax him with things like this.
  6. (That probably doesn't fit the song, sorry)
  7. CT assumes his kids have narrow horizons, limited expectations and negligible curiosity (which they may well do depending on how they've been raised), so he can't imagine anyone wanting anything different for their kids. Fairly standard Leave voter mentality, as polls have illustrated since the referendum.

  9. As Norman Tebbit said, "I grew up in the '30s with an unemployed father. He didn't riot. He got on his bike and blamed everyone else for talking down the employment market."
  10. It's almost as if rational humans fear things for good reason.
  11. The public voted for gold-shitting unicorns, that doesn't mean Corbyn is obliged to strap on a horn and start straining.
  12. He needed to be a lot stronger on the IRA stuff too, for example. It shouldn't be an issue when there's real problems facing the country, but it's exactly the kind of thing that sticks (and has now stuck, irrevocably) with the middle-England voters you need if you want to actually win an election, and it's unrealistic to believe otherwise. Ditto getting a couple of people on his team who are more friendly to those voters and putting them out there to do the talking for you when necessary. Know your audience, basically. Of course, "if you want to actually win" may be the key phrase here.
  13. Maybe he's resigning so he can go on Love Island.
  14. Some article he found by googling and didn't read.
  15. And Teddy Johnson, Eurovision royalty, as immortalised in Monty Python's Communist Quiz. Sing rittle birdie!
  16. And this is what I want from everything else
