on the train to london and trying to stim over my book whilst listening to radiohead and a group of welsh women have screeched at 100% volume the entire way
Lady in stripes, "It's close between Labour and Reform UK in the polls, and I want you, Andy Burnham, to win"
"The sooner Keir Starmer walks out of Downing Street the better for me and everybody else"

Spare a thought for the Scots. It canโt be easy.
