@lewis_goodall @gameoldgirl Does he pass Hague's other test of being able to lead the country internationally? I've read Sasha Swire's book and it is soaked in entitlement; the risk is that this argument really appeals to those who really believe in a 'natural' class of leaders.

@gameoldgirl Yeah like Farage. Whatever you think of him he’s a nationally important politician. Of course he should be in parliament. It’s irrelevant he’s not from Clacton.
English
Spot on. We’ve come to fetishise “local representatives” far too much, a symptom of our politics becoming smaller and more parochial. What we need is quality national politicians. If they have to be “parachuted” in, and they spend more time in SW1 than the constituency, so be it.

@simon_schama One of Paul Whitehouse's greatest performances.

He's speaking about Lord John Russell - I had no idea about the visit to Elba! This is truly wonderful from Bertie
Michael Warburton@TheMonologist
A fascinating interview with BERTRAND RUSSELL from 1952 that has him talking about his Grandfather meeting Napoleon, and about life in Europe in the 1800’s.

40yrs ago today we played the Wag Club, London, which I knew from my scooter days as Whisky-a-Go-Go. We won 2-0 and got paid £400, the most we'd ever been got. 18 songs played & after we stayed at @GusGregoryPhoto where we drank and listened to this below. youtube.com/watch?v=noWuJp…

The size of this flag that would have flown from the stern of a Spanish Warship in the 18th century shows you that they really didn't fuck about years ago.

I never knew that Grouch Marx and Dennis Hopper made a generation gap drama (!!) back in 1962. Marx is a concerned father trying to talk Dennis out of marrying his 17 year old daughter played by Hopper’s wife Brooke Hayward.

@brianbatescomic I thought it said Europe. I'd have to disagree

2. We ARE continuing under a new name with @dustyslay, @brianbatescomic and me. Same RSS feed, same YouTube channel, same everything else. Still under the @nateland_ent umbrella.

I’m getting a lot of questions about the future of the Nateland Podcast. Let me clear up a few important things:
1. Nate IS leaving the show…

@dustyslay @thejessedaniel Urban hunting, fishing and horticulture. I'd pay to see that.

They should teach hunting, fishing and basic ag/horticulture in high school. Firearm safety. Teach you how to do your taxes. Imagine how capable people would be

@wedusport Big difference between 'get used to losing' and 'get used to being caught cheating'.

@EdConwaySky @SkyNews Read Material World when it came out, just read The Summit, which was excellent, and have now got the 50 Economic Ideas as my Xmas reading.

It's the tip of the iceberg of the biggest econ story of our day.
It'll air on @SkyNews Fri but u can watch the whole thing here NOW👇

@dustyslay You know what I think is really gay? Homosexuality. Controversial, I know, but it has to be said.
English
Weird take but funny wording. I don’t think stand up and podcasts are in competition. Stand up and podcasting are two different crafts. The people that do either of them well are great.
Aspersion Caster@AspersionCaster
If we're being honest stand up is pretty gay and saying something organically funny on a podcast with your boys in real time is a lot more impressive than retelling a story you've been working on for two years

@nytimes Ironic that I can't read that article because I can't sign in because, I guess, of the problems talked about in the article.

Amazon said it was experiencing issues with its cloud service operations as hundreds of websites and apps reported outages.

@dnlbenson @swpixtweets He's been doing a fine job of getting himself sacked all last week. I won't work for anyone else, but look, I am still really good!
