I'm a tad concerned with Eton hiking its fees. If parents can't afford to pay, then how will us, 60M plebs, get a supply of talent-free self-important prats to run the country?

Woman of the Day police officer Lilian Wyles born OTD 1885 in Lincolnshire, the first woman member of the CID in the Metropolitan Police and one of the first women officers to take statements directly from women and juvenile victims of assault. You have no idea how groundbreaking

Dynamic pricing on ticketmasteruk is a disgrace. 8 hours in a queue for Oasis tickets only for them to cost £500 each when we finally get to the front of the queue. Not paying a grand for a concert. 🖕

This is *lovely*. Since moving to a rural village I am very lucky that I now have good friends 20/30+ years older than I am. Here’s to sleepy towns.

Jean Hatchet The only reason a 51 year old man could qualify for the Olympics is if he entered the women’s race.

I’m laid up with flu and everywhere aches but this has had me low-key Muttley laughing for the past 20 mins. This woman is FUNNY

This awful case is a good reminder of why feminists have always urged police to take “minor” sex crimes like voyeurism and upskirting seriously. bbc.com/news/articles/…

Tremendous advocacy for libraries by Jack Reacher Books on BBC Radio 4 Today 8.20 just now. Birmingham libraries critical to him - and friends who became an engineer and a doctor. Worth listening to. And as he says, it must be centrally funded because no rich person can donate enough.

Trans ideology is a GIFT to all these misogynistic twats who like to preach about being on ‘the right side of history’ whilst also putting women in their place. Spaff off about being ‘inclusive’ all you like, The Last Leg, but there is a women’s category in sports for a reason.

You can pay for and store images of children being sexually abused and you won’t get sent to prison even if you are caught. So where is the deterrent? You know we live in some kind of hell when the male orgasm is valued so much more than actual children’s lives. #HuwEdwards

He made, received and stored “indecent” images of children and he walks free? Every child sex abuser in the country is cheering. The rest of us know the system is utterly broken. #HuwEdwards theguardian.com/media/2024/sep…

FFS. So many people have difficult childhoods - thought generally not as difficult as the childhoods of those in the photographs Edwards acquired bbc.co.uk/news/live/cvgx…

I'm genuinely sick to my stomach of all these people saying how common the crime is & that's why we can't jail the people who *create the demand for child abuse". This is how sex crimes & child abuse proliferate.

Have we decriminalised possession of child abuse images, then? Bc six months suspended is no sentence, really. And the children in those videos were real. So who benefits here? #RedFlagEconomy apple.news/AVXHn2ioyTiysQ…

Nah mate, we know how common it is. Build more jails. Throw them all in. Preferably forever.
