He was a secret Marxist all along. The Daily Mail was right!

Just nationalise it already.

Just a little bit, as a treat.

This and the stuff around the ‘single status’ for workers is genuinely quite difficult. For instance, the Writers’ Guild has concerns about how royalties would work under such a status. That’s exactly why the government’s doing the right thing in having an extensive consultation period.

Terrified this will now actually catch on.

Brollywood?

Yeah, free soloing is the one. I climb all the time, totally happy doing anything at any height with a rope but without one? Nah.

I climb to keep fit and because it’s really fun. It’s a moderately dangerous activity, but no one ever says I should consider the pressures on the NHS before I go and maybe fall off a boulder problem and break my ankle or whatever. I think this is just standard fatphobic finger-wagging, to be honest.

There used to be a very similar shop near me that was actually just a front for selling cannabis.

Do you mean where people use it as an adjective? E.g., ‘This house is very aesthetic’ where they mean ‘beautiful’?

Man, I hope she does this. It’s not something a future government would realistically undo.

It’s also not the kind of thing that would be obviously life-changing for anyone but it would be a permanent change for the better!

Bit boring, I thought. Last year’s was better.

I was basically happy with the content, but it needed more hope spots.

I thought we were gonna get away without some wanker this year, but there’s always some wanker.

Problem is that continuing not to invest = austerity. So if he doesn’t announce some new spending or at the very least something that will boost growth somehow, there will be more austerity. Something’s gotta give!

How deep does the rabbit hole go?

Oddly, it’s also true of me and my wife. Maybe I was on to something?

I thought that women drank tea and men drank coffee, because that was what my mum and dad did.

Yeah, it’s not exactly a fun walk even now. I normally go through Soho if I’m in the area even if it takes longer.

I read a while back that the average speed of a bus in central London is 3 (three!) miles per hour.

You are right that they can’t compete directly with online shopping, but that’s not why people go there. Studies have consistently shown that closing shopping areas to through-traffic is good for businesses, precisely because it makes them easier, not harder, to access. Shops don’t benefit in any way from hundreds of cars driving past them!
