Do you want to express yourself?
Do you want to say something profound?
Would you care to exist in a paradise
Where such honest creations abound?
Well, welcome to Twitter
Where you can expound
On your life and its various factors
But try to remember that you've only got

โSo youโre saying the Conservative party are at risk of becoming the bellends?โ
The full version is even better. Iโm actually in tears.

I'm always in Cannock.
I know my town better than anyone. Anyone. From local government to national representation.
You know when Cannock people should have started paying attention? Not when people fleeing war stay in 2 hotels. We should have started paying attention when the sons and daughters of generations of Coal Miners (who in some of my mates cases were literally starving during the miners strike) continually voted for a party that has left our town in tatters.
The town centre is dead, go up to Park Road and see the line of people waiting for methadone as the town battles a major heroin problem, then look at the "shops" which now is vape /barber/poundshop on a loop, and then tell me with a straight face that Cannock voters aren't responsible for the state of the town but 200 brown people in 2 hotels are.
People walking around town in fucking dressing gowns and slippers, local standards disappearing due to the chronic lack of investment in infrastructure and people in our town based on voting for parties contrary to our town's interests has turned chunks of it feral.
And we can't blame "them" because 97.4% of Cannock people are white. But hey, it's the 200 people in hotels fault.
Only a bigot could blame people seeking asylum for the woes of a town which decided that decades of Tory government would make their town healthy, happy and productive but instead has left it a shell of the vibrant town it was many years ago.
Blame yourself for once. Blame your vote. Blame yourself for giving liars, cheats, corrupt officials your thumbs up nationally.
Blame you.
Screenshots below. No asylum seekers were involved in any of it.
@matthewbennett Ok, fair. It just sits uncomfortably with me seeing someone whose opinion I respect, spread their rubbish around. I don't mean to be a dick about it, so hope I didn't come across that way.
(First draft was "I'm not intending to be", I think because "no tengo la intenciรณn de...")
You know your rebrand is shit when the BBC constantly have to insert "posted on X, formally known as Twitter" or words to that effect in their articles.
