Dignity Is Defiance
Living with a disability means waking up every day inside limits you never chose — and then watching strangers debate whether those limits are “valid enough” to deserve help.

And the cruelty is that none of these debates happensContinue reading “Dignity Is Defiance”
Was Jeremy Corbyn Harshly Treated By The Media?
Imagine Jeremy Corbyn walking into the newsroom like: “Morning everyone!” And the entire press pack responds: “Ah! The threat to sandwiches, flags, and everything we hold dear has arrived!” Half the papers treated him like he’d personally tried to nationalise their kettle.

Iran Accused Of Smuggling Spies Into Britain
Imagine the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps sitting around a table like: “Right lads, MI5 is watching the airports, the ports, the embassies… So what’s the plan?” “Small boats.” “Small boats?” “Yep.

The Buck Stops Here
Keir Starmer is fighting to cling on in No 10 today as he tries to blame the head of the Foreign Office for the Peter Mandelson vetting scandal. The Cabinet minister insisted Sir Keir had no idea until Tuesday this week that Mandelson failed his security vetting, saying that was ‘beyond unacceptable’ and Sir Olly had left hisContinue reading “The Buck Stops Here”
A Country That Is Run By Old People
People of a particular age in the UK are deemed unemployable, yet people in government who want to run as Prime Minister are not deemed unemployable. Why is that, I wonder? Apparently, there is no upper-age limit for employment because that is protected by the Equality Act 2010 against age discrimination, but if you wereContinue reading “A Country That Is Run By Old People”
