Love house and techno and gardening. Everything else is relative, I suppose.

Looking forward to Niven's Womens Hour interview this year about why she hasn't changed her mind on the women authors who were too divisive last year.

@LucyHunterB This is too tempting to not have a go.

Jenny Niven
Considers it a given
That when she talks about "changing your mind"
She means the unenlightened, bigoted kind.

Nigel Farage has just posted

“The mainstream media constantly distorts what I say. You can no longer rely on them to report the truth”

That is of course complete bollocks

Important report from @zeteouk but missing a key point.

It reveals Labour’s Lord Glasman met with AFD’s Maximilian Krah last week. Krah doesn’t just have Nazi views but a r’ship with Oleh Voloshyn, the Kremlin agent who bribed Reform leader, Nathan Gill

Today, my wife & I joined Donald Trump’s hit list. He has directed his Department of Justice to investigate us. They have not found a crime - they are simply trying to find one.

He isn't coming after me because of mean tweets, but because I am considering running for President.

He hates that I consistently call him out. He is simply the most corrupt President in American history.

We have nothing to hide. 

Mr. President, come after me. I am not going anywhere. 

The country is watching.

Trump criticizes Israel's methods in Lebanon:

You don't have to knock down an apartment house every time you are looking for somebody.

There are a lot of people in those houses, and they are not all Hezbollah, that I can tell you.
