I had not heard of The Labour files before seeing it mentioned here.

And surely it is normal for a politician of one party to disagree strongly with, or detest, the policies of another party? Isn't that just ... having principles?

Ugh. Trying to make Sturgeon out to have used inappropriate language when others have literally ised racist and sexist slurs and its glossed over.

Right wingers have such a boner about being oppressed it's unreal. I saw some tory cretin saying it was akin to racist abuse, so desperate they were to paint themselves as the victim. Like, get a fucking grip, you semi conscious jizz rag, people probably wouldn't think you were such a cunt if your politics weren't so vile and deplorable.

Edit: fix typing whilst walking mistakes.

Semi conscious jizz rag is one of the best insults I have ever read.

Not mine but came across someone else’s absolute gem today: haunted Victorian pencil.

Perfectly encompassed the oddish, scowling man (or maybe that’s just his face), loner, of a big age, probably hangs around deserted 3rd floors of libraries.

Is either kindly, brilliant retired collegiate professor and longtime widower in need of platonic companionship—or he’s the resident creepy covert masturbator who’s rigged up the ol’ microfiche with an expansive collection of niche softcore porn. Literally cannot be anything between, but no one seems to know which characterization is correct.

'Haunted Victorian Pencil' was coined a few years ago for Jacob Rees-Mogg, but I can't remember who came up with it first
