Looking to see if we can beat Yorkshire’s 12th place in the medals table in 2012 🙂

My friend just sent me footage of ghouls congregating and throwing stuff at Southport Mosque. Go home you disgusting pricks. Can't even let children be peacefully mourned.

When a bunch of grinning arseholes rock up blind pissed and coked up to a grief-stricken community just to have a punch-up and torch a Mosque, I’m not sure it’s even technically POSSIBLE to “smear” them, Isabel. They’re the literal lowest of the actual low. They’re BENEATH scum.

Nazi salutes, swastika tattoos, defecating in gardens, looting local shops, attacking mosques, chanting fascist slogans, throwing missiles at everyone & setting police stations on fire, but don’t you dare call them “far right Well, just plain “Nazis” it is then

Tory leader Kemi Badenoch is blaming the Vauxhall job losses on the electric vehicle mandate introduced by Tory business secretary Kemi Badenoch. I wonder if the two of them are related?

Congratulations to my old UNISON buddy Wendy Nichols Unison Nichols on her appointment as an The Labour Party peer. Of course we need a more democratic second chamber, but while we have the system we have it is good to see a hard working working class trade unionist there as a working peer
