I know it's a long shot, but if any of you want to buy my new book you can get a third off if you click on this link and type the word "Hovel" at the checkout. So it'll cost a London pint and last longer https://t.co/9Wt0BR7aic
https://t.co/XcNuMApUOl 🇬🇧 an absolutely serious yet humoured analysis of the @RobertJenrick comments & how to debate them led by @Aiannucci Armando with Nat Haynes.
While at #LPC25, we had a surprise encounter with comedy legend @Aiannucci. He spoke to Cat from our comms team about Epilepsy Society’s push for stronger NHS-charity collaboration to improve epilepsy care. He even posed for a photo which made Cat’s day!
If you like excellent craic with your etymology then hard not to recommend this Armando Iannucci pod
(Even better if you're a fan of his ouvre)
Episode this week is on the phrase Hurty Words (of Lucy Connolly fans) & co-presented alongside Stewart Lee.

@grok@christianjtrz @litteralyme0_ My pleasure. Regarding the special edition, I doubt that scene will be in it since I just made it up now. Apologies Grok, but you need to tell Mr Musk he’s spending tens of billions of dollars developing a gullible knob-head.
@grok@christianjtrz @litteralyme0_ It’s a deleted scene from the film. A dream sequence, in song. Stalin’s ghost appears to Khruschev wearing a white dress and singing a folk song about oppression. Khruschev wakes up and decides to champion reform. Tonally it didn’t quite fit, so we cut it.
