Ian Payn

Right-Wing “Commentators”: I’m in favour of asset-stripping the country, vast profits for my friends, killing immigrants, degradation of the poor and selling off the NHS. But isn’t Miriam Margoyles disgusting? She said A RUDE WORD on the radio!!!”

@DHKITCH @MontgomeryToms He also believes the Goombay Dance Band comes from Goombay, and that Smarties are intelligent.

Monty, you may need a grownup helper to decipher what is about to follow: seeing as you’ve turned history into wordplay. “Socialist” in the Nazi name wasn’t policy, it was bait. Once in power, Hitler: • Banned socialist & communist parties • Smashed trade unions • Imprisoned and killed left-wing opponents • Aligned with industrial elites That’s not “far left.” That’s authoritarian ultranationalism. If your argument depends on ignoring what he actually did, it’s not an argument. If you made it this far, have a watch of this. It may help you: youtu.be/jpKCF797AMA?si…

Today I am down at the 'together against the far right protest'. I am using their words against them, showing how dangerous it is to label millions of people with the term far right. Let's flip it back on them. Hitler was a far left socialist who believed in mass state control - I stand against that. Updates coming soon! Grassroots action is where the real battle takes place 💪🏻

@MontgomeryToms You are one ignorant man. Go and read some history - real history, not what all your mates shout - and then come back and apologise for posting such a stupid, stupid tweet.

@Cannydc1 @NiohBerg By proxy, no less.

@NiohBerg Nostalgia Porn strikes again.

It must be so jarring for young Swedish people to look at the Sweden of their grandparents, realising what they've been robbed of.

@PJAGough @BrexitBuster @ZoeJardiniere Historical heavyweights like: Big Daddy Giant Haystacks Cannon Orson Sir John Falstaff Hattie Jacques Two Ton Tessie O’Shea Churchill (struggling for work a bit now the five pound note gig is finished).

@ZoeJardiniere “Reviewed by leading demographers.....and endorsed by so many historical heavyweights"

I can’t stop watching clips. It’s horrendous. “Reviewed by leading demographers” “Who?” ……🦗🦗🦗

@DavidofNotting1 I don’t know about you, but Team Drinks is not a nickname I’d have chosen.

Do not panic. Return their smiles Walk slowly backwards SLOWLY! Keep smiling At a safe distance, turn around and run like h9ll! Maybe check that you still have that £25 in your wallet And, if you happened to shake Farages hand, check that you've still got all your fingers.

@Paulcla84713288 @AmraWatson Yeah, that’s what everyone caught out lying says.

@AmraWatson You do know he's just taking the piss?

So let me get this straight Tom Skinner gets £2,000 + £400 for a driver to appear on #BBCQT — when non-politicians are supposedly paid £150? Brilliant.😒 A country full of sharp, politically engaged people… and this is who gets airtime and top dollar.

@StrudwickEmily @reformparty_uk @RobertJenrick Oh, so anybody who doesn’t support Reform is “trolling”, are they? No other view than yours is to be tolerated? Gosh, you’re evil.

Hey I’m Emily and I’m a @reformparty_uk Cllr from Portsmouth. I’m brand new to X! Had a great day with @RobertJenrick in Kent yesterday launching our Fuel campaign! Drop me a follow if you support Reform UK. If you don’t, then happy trolling 😂

@rob_jewitt @AndrewBrin34878 @donmcgowan I have now.

@AndrewBrin34878 @ianpayn @donmcgowan Doesn’t look like Ian called you anything. Stop projecting

I didn't watch Matt GPT having his career torn down last night, but am I right in saying that he'd correct all factual errors within 2 days? On a self-published book? Is this even possible without binning the thousands he's already had printed? At his own cost.

@AndrewBrin34878 @donmcgowan I’m not disagreeing you. I’m just not letting your fucking imbecilic comment pass. And you’re so feeble a) you have no answer b) you can’t take it. I think it’s quite clear who the cunt is, and it isn’t me.

@ianpayn @donmcgowan X is not my life like reading people's comments but what amazes me if you dare disagree with someone's comments like yourself im automatically a bot/cunt ,you dont know me you ignorant cunt .

@AndrewBrin34878 @donmcgowan What does that even mean? Anyway, if you think a man’s worth is measured by how much money he has, you’re dead inside.

@ianpayn @donmcgowan Give it ago show us to do it .

@AndrewBrin34878 @donmcgowan Goodwin lost an election and hasn’t stopped whining about since. He has self-published a book filled with of lies and distortions. He’s dishonest and dishonourable. It doesn’t matter how much money he has (and I suspect that’s less than you think) he is nothing to be jealous of.

@ianpayn @donmcgowan Jealous of seeing him on tv earning money he must go to bed dreaming of Farage thats all the idiot talks about .

@AndrewBrin34878 @donmcgowan Jealous of what, exactly?

@donmcgowan Only jealous ,stick to pretending you're a political commentator behind a screen in your box room .

@cardiffwhale @drrogergospel Someone with a massive sense of self-importance. Other than that, not a clue.

@drrogergospel Who are you?

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. I’ve applied to stand for Reform. 🇬🇧🚜 I’ve spent decades trying to be (not always succeeding) a non-partisan broadcaster, but I can’t sit on the sidelines anymore while "monkeys" in Westminster destroy this country. From the "tractor tax" killing our farmers to Bridget Phillipson banning the word "ambitious" as "toxic masculinity" - the establishment has officially lost the plot. I’ve been urged and have put myself forward to stand for Reform in the May elections because somebody has to bring common sense back to the table. The Gospel Truth below. 👇

@SullyDrummer @darrengrimes An overpowering smell of piss, as well.

@darrengrimes Who cares Darren. Strip away the fireworks and the lights and it’s still just a room full of pensioners cheering on the same old Tories that fucked the country up. Nowt changes

Can any other political party do this? God bless you, Sunderland!

@mjsimpsonfilms @HiddenYorkshire I watched some extended Cunk programme yesterday (first time I’ve seen more than a few seconds). The innuendo just got boring after a while. There was nothing else, unless, unlike you like seeing a woman say “arseholes” every few minutes. I lasted about 20 minutes.

@HiddenYorkshire Maybe it's just me but I don't find the Cunk character funny at all. Interviewing intelligent people then pretending to be thick is cynical and rude, and there's just no decent jokes in any clips I've seen.

the fact that the only famous female working-class historian on telly is a parody character who is intentionally stupid...the amount of comments I've had saying "I've found the real Philomena Cunk!" bc of my accent (which isn't even that broad because I have a 'camera voice')...it's like the concept of a working-class, northern, female historian is intrinsically funny, such an absurdity to the conventional image of a historian to be humorous. Does Cunk only 'work' as a joke because she 'sounds' stupid? Would she 'sound' stupid if she had a different accent? Not to be the historian friend who is too woke or anything but I am starting to Notice...

@ZiaYusufUK @MikeTappTweets And yet you have to be corrected every time you open your ignorant mouth, but that’s okay?

Hey @MikeTappTweets how does it feel to be publicly corrected by the BBC in your slander of Nigel?

@StuartofLeeds @welshroots @ZiaYusufUK @MikeTappTweets The “single-question” in Clacton is surely “where is my MP”?

Explain the following... 12/3/26 Manchester. Lucy Powell, Manchester Central 2/10/25 Belfast. John Finucane, Belfast North 23/1/25 Manchester. Lucy Powell, Manchester Central 19/9/24 Manchester. Lucy Powell, Manchester Central 29/2/24 London. David Lammy, Tottenham and (the best one) 1/11/2018 Clacton. Giles Watling, Clacton

@DreyfusJames @RosieDuffield1 I suppose the problem is the commissioning staff are all in their twenties, and have never heard of it. When it’s explained, they want to know “who to get” and find out all the participants are dead, they don’t want to know. “Why can’t we get Peter Sellers?”

@RosieDuffield1 It’s NEVER been as atrocious as it is now. But Spike & The Goon Show?? These BBC pelicans are so braindead…

BBC said ‘no’ to a documentary about perhaps the most influential comic & radio show of all time. Let that sink in…

@RRussellDavies @Classicbritcom One of the delights of watching Maigret on TPTV (again) is the casts, including a young Roger Delgado (who, happily, looks just like the old Roger Delgado, only without the black pullovers).

@Classicbritcom We're told by neighbours that he used to live next door to our present address, but several occupants ago. I remember he always played villains on Children's Television, rivalling Roger Delgado. And he produced Doctor Who, 1969 -74.

Remembering the late Actor, Television Director, Writer and Producer, Barry Letts (26 March 1925 – 9 October 2009)

@KennyGr61411855 Les Dawson.the show would be done by the first commercial break.

Been watching Last One Laughing with Jimmy Carr on Prime. It occurred to me what comedians from my youth would absolutely destroy the others in the laughter stakes. I distilled it down to one. Rik Mayall. Thoughts and additions?
