A week in the life of Lee Anderson

Starts the week filming himself walking around town pointing at homeless people for content, acting like he’s discovered poverty personally while somehow still missing every reason it exists.

Monday: Wakes up furious about something he hasn’t read yet. Goes on GB News to explain Britain was better when chips came in newspaper and nobody had feelings. Later shares that infamous “bacon bum” picture online like it’s the height of political commentary, seemingly more interested in winding people up and stoking division against Muslims than saying anything remotely useful.

Tuesday: Visits a food bank. Says it proves community spirit is alive and well, while carefully avoiding the question why the food bank needs to exist. Later spends 45 minutes in frantic phone calls with Nigel Farage trying to decide which post he should put on X, before finally posting: “The left hate Britain because I had beans on toast for breakfast. Sad!”

Wednesday: Announces common sense has been cancelled. Nobody knows by who. Possibly tofu. Writes another strongly worded letter to the government demanding action on whatever made him angry that morning. Receives absolutely no reply.

Thursday: Blames net zero for the weather, immigration for potholes, and Labour for the fact his Greggs sausage roll was lukewarm.

Friday: Gives a speech about hard work from a taxpayer-funded office, then says people on benefits should “just graft more”. Mentions he’s still waiting to hear back about his letter.

Saturday: Posts a photo of a full English breakfast with the caption: “This is British culture.” Blocks 400 people before lunch. Then backs some grifter called Robert Kenyon, because apparently “common sense politics” now means falling for anyone with a webcam, a PayPal link and a persecution complex.

Sunday: Says he’s being silenced on his national TV show, newspaper column, radio interview and 9 separate social media accounts. Writes yet another letter to the government and immediately complains they’re ignoring him again.

Then, after a full week of telling everyone else to tighten their belts, we discover the “man of the people” — elected as a Conservative MP, later reinvented as a Reform MP — claimed £264,074 in parliamentary costs in 2024/25, around £39k above the published MP average.

That’s £723 a day, every single day of the year.

Not illegal. Not even top of the league. Just very funny from a man whose entire brand is telling everyone else to live on “common sense” and graft harder.

Another hard week defending ordinary people from the elite — mainly by shouting at them, reposting rage-bait from anonymous accounts with Union Jack profile pictures, pretending every criticism is an attack on free speech, platforming chancers, mistaking outrage for policy.

Common sense, taxpayer-funded edition.

I see Question Time has reached its inevitable endgame. It was bound to happen.

The only thing the #Tories did in their 14 years was to hone their skills at lying, cheating, incompetence, corruption and bankrupting the country with @David_Cameron, @BorisJohnson and @Nigel_Farage's #Brexit and trying to break the record of how many prime ministers they could have in one parliament!

When your moral framework is correct this is how kids run rings around so called adults. A right-wing journalist tries to bait an Indian youth into endorsing war between India and Pakistan but is instantly shut down.

Hey @grok what are the odds that I could one day buy this failing social media site for a Keenan and Kel DVD box set and a song?

I have screenshots from the In-home display of this occurrence, and the previous time too. Do I need to raise a dispute with my bank for this time too?

Also, please open ANOTHER official complaint about today's incident.

[🇪🇺 Mark - out of fashion, and a trifle uncool? @FeckOffCup]

To @OVOEnergy . I am absolutely furious. Your app has messed up AGAIN. Same issue as reported in previous DM. Topped up gas account, app said failed. Made 2nd top-up which succeeded, receipts received for BOTH, both taken from my bank card, only 1 payment credited to meter.

A story to put a massive smile on your face today. 😃

There is no dog in the world who deserves this more than Mr Big.

Exactly 2 months ago on the 29th May we found him dying alone in a toilet. He was done.

Well today was the greatest day in his life (1/10) 🧵

Nigel Farage is in Blackpool today. And after a long night, so is this.

Tory MP Philip Davies put a £8k bet on himself to lose. This is what we found when we dug into his and his wife Esther McVey’s finances

[Dr Andrew Meyerson @AndrewMeyerson]

Dear 🇬🇧,

@Nigel_Farage wants you to forget the fact that 10 years ago your NHS was ranked the #1 healthcare system in the world. The best on the planet. France was #9. You don’t need a new system. You need to stop listening to conmen, and reinvest in the NHS.

Oh @merseyflow have sent a survey and want to to know what I think? I'm happy to oblige. And also make it public.

Section 28 didn’t come out of nowhere.
It came from a society where 75% thought homosexuality was wrong.
From a society that feared the sight of a man in drag would corrupt.
From a society that believed ignorance was better for children than any knowledge of gay lives.

@implausibleblog We all know why Farrukh. It's so he can farm it out to mates companies like the ones that make disability assessments. People on deathbed & dying but are judged 'fit to work' because they get paid to decline claims!?
