Before Nigel Farage and Reform UK tell you he is now Prime Minister, note there are 650 MPs in Parliament and 20,000 councillors in the UK.
Today’s results will likely end with Reform UK having 2500-3000/20,000 councillors and still just 8/650 MPs.
GBNews, the Express, Spectator and Mail will tell you he’s about to be handed the keys to No.10. But it’s local elections, they will all be disappointed.
I like an occasional bit of boxing. Was trying to remember the name of a guy we saw on TV mid 2000s, white north American (Canadian? Maybe Irish extraction?), who was a real journeyman, was never gonna win but not gonna ever go down, bloody pulp by the end. Any ideas?!
Trump on Hormuz so far:
“You have 2 days to open Strait of Hormuz”
“You have 5 days to open Strait of Hormuz”
“You have 10 days to open Strait of Hormuz”
“Help us take Strait of Hormuz”
“We don’t need Strait of Hormuz”
“Open the Fuckin Strait, you crazy bastards”
It’s weird how Trump. an 80 year old man on death’s door is still obsessed with accumulating wealth. We need to start classifying people like this as mentally ill. Like Elon Musk. When is enough enough?
Hive mind: watching the whole of Monty Python & have been expecting a song which I now can't even find on Google...It must be Eric Idle surely...About composers, starts "Franz Liszt was often pissed..." 😂 Surely I havent imagined this!
So many Utd fans discovering that Young Boys play at the Wankdorf stadium...
I give you the greatest of all Young Boys headlines from 2005 when the stadium was opened.
"Young Boys Wankdorf erection relief"

Post script: as an act of self-harm, cajoled the missus to finally get me this for my birthday, so I can relive the endless plod of 90s promo CDs. It is awful and wonderful at the same time.
Rummaging recent wave of 90s indie dredger comps. I still dont own any C... 1s (now up 2 91), but wld kinda like 2, tho Im sure better in theory than reality. Impressive array of names,names u havent heard 4 30 years & total obscurities (Life W/Patrick?!): https://t.co/EP8B02uyho
Also work to be done in dredging late period local Britpop bands...The 2000s in Blackpool had some pretty mediocre entries, with suitably derivative names, inc Mornin Wood & The Stealers (who amused Simon Morris til his death with the fans' chant of "Steeee-lers!")
