You don’t get to stoke the fire at the beginning of the tournament by labelling our anti-racism message as ‘Gesture Politics’ & then pretend to be disgusted when the very thing we’re campaigning against, happens.
Don't know when it started but "so to speak" is now v much a phrase I regularly use. "As it were" is surely just around the corner. Terrified. Need to lay off the BBC podcasts for a while. Denmark abú

Just when you thought it could not get worse, we find that Darragh O Brien, the Fianna Fail Housing Minister is an investor in a vulture fund.

Getting mad anxious about the waiting time to get prints framed once those places re-open. The four walls need to do me a maj gesture or else this relationship is gonna get even more complicated
This is the COOLEST. A Google Earth-type representation of the planet. Every green dot is a radio station. Click any dot to listen in. It’s like cultural teleportation. You could spend hours with this thing… https://t.co/rdEHUUfgvk
