@DavQuinn Every election I think “right, here’s all the things I can get off my chest at last. If enough ppl say it they must listen”. Inevitably the canvasser turns out be their elderly mother or father or auntie so it’s pointless. But NGOs are in their ear every day.
@HughSnape@SebastianEPayne Yes I know that pic. But I’m 12/13 through and for the vast majority of the series he’s not wearing anything. Otoh Ken Clarke is noted for sometimes wearing a hat in a modern era when hardly anyone does. Pretty clear that is what the writer was thinking of.
@OdohertyI64991@edwest Hi Ian, have just seen you on my timeline: will you be restarting your podcast? It was great but stopped abruptly after a few episodes. I fear the Blob got to you.
@EwanMacKenna I was in college with BOC as he was known. At the main UCC debating society, it was customary to not mock or heckle (always nervous) first time speakers. Only once did I see some twat ignore that and it was him. No respect for him since.
@garyonuallain I remember when Michael Martin’s child died the family issued a request to the media for privacy at the funeral. Next day pictures of the grieving parents by the graveside splashed on the front page of every paper.
@SteveSmith98@rorysutherland Harvey Norman shouty ads put me off ever shopping there.
Haven’t bought a Gillette product since their bizarre anti-male ad campaign a few years back.
