@pete_sinclair The Christmas episode was magnificent. We hunt around for it every December but they make it harder to find!

Lead Balloon is the show I'm most proud of having co-written. It was a joy to work on at every stage of the process, and the performances from the cast were pitch perfect. Only wish it was available on Netflix, or better still that the BBC would repeat it! theguardian.com/culture/2026/m…

Wrote about this in ‘Leave The Capital’, including the fact that ‘Love Will Keep Us Together’ and ‘Love Will Tear Us Apart’ were recorded in the same room. RIP Neil. What a talent.

Neil Sedaka was at a low ebb in the early 70s. The US had all but forgotten his genius. Then he made two classic albums that reminded the world how great he was. They were recorded not in LA...but in Stockport. The backing band were 10cc.

@WhyteleafeEagle I would suggest a Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology degree. You might have to leave the ground a bit early.

It’s the final day of February, so it’s only right that we bless your timeline with Jordan Ayew’s winner against Brighton from 2020. 👌
The Ghanaian Prince had a ‘great day at the seaside’ with his friends. 🌊

@sjsuth @portraitinflesh I think you give her too much credit. She's just a crackpot.
English

@portraitinflesh She did not. This is a sad person crushed by unpopularity scrambling around saying anything to be liked by someone, even if it’s the worst people on the planet.
Someone with dignity would have just left the public eye entirely.

Frankly, even if there *had* been a conspiracy of central bankers to destroy Truss's premiership, then good for them, I say, because this is absolutely fucking mental. It'd be great to know whether she already harboured views like these, back when she exercised ministerial power.

The extreme left are mounting an armed insurrection. My comments on ICE in the United States.

Just got on an @EastMidRailway train at St Pancras to Nottingham. 5 glorious coaches long. With Crystal Palace fans travelling in numbers. An elderly couple (French I think) get on last wondering where their seat is. No seats obviously. BUT I’VE PAID 200 POUNDS exclaims the lady.

@alexmassie Sometimes I want to post something stinging and cogent to explain why these people are wrong. But sometimes I just want to say: "What a bunch of cunts" This is one of those times.

Well, there you have it. Revolting, unserious, cosplaying, fools.

💥 NOW: Pro-Pals march through London chanting “Say it clear, say it loud. Khamenei makes us proud.” Despicable ghouls.

@MartinSLewis So if you're travelling alone let's say in the US and are involved in an accident, what happens if you're unconscious and you can't call the insurance company first to organise emergency care/assistance?

@WhyteleafeEagle If I could get past security on Sunday, I'd get this clip on a loop and sellotape my phone to Glasner's face.

The images of body bags leave no doubt about the brutality of Iran’s repression, and a communications blackout is indefensible.
Across the country, Iranians are protesting real economic hardship, much of it deepened by US sanctions. From the UK, genuine solidarity means opposing those sanctions and the imperial strategies and aspirations behind them.
At the same time, this unrest is being cynically exploited by Netanyahu’s genocidal government as a pretext for military intervention and regime change — a path that must be firmly rejected.
It must be clear: only the Iranian people have the right to decide their own future. No outside power should dictate or interfere.
Any serious politics requires holding all of these truths together.

EXCLUSIVE 🚨: Crystal Palace’s first team squad have caused OUTRAGE, by being pictured on holiday in Dubai just days after getting dumped out of the FA Cup by non-league Macclesfield.
The explosive pictures show the players drinking cocktails and riding helicopters, whilst #CPFC’s fans still wait for refunds.

@perry_j_ableman They should refund me and I didn't even go. I missed walking round Tesco's for that.
