Good riddance Twitter. Trying to get a drama-free current affairs fix here instead. Not a bot. Fuck AI.

The young people now coming of voting age have literally known nothing but nastiness and incompetence from the Tories. Their living memory is austerity, Brexit, culture wars, and the corpulent, selfish greed of the pandemic government. You won’t change that bad feeling by more of the fucking same.

I don’t understand how these fools can be so wrong after that election thrashing. I posit that the relentless culture war crusades they embarked upon over the last decade are a major contributor to why young people think conservatism is for cretins and arseholes.

Haha the absolute state of them. Badenoch and Tugendhat just being awful people. Jenrick *still* blaming Tony Blair nearly two decades on, and Cleverly. Lol. Cleverly. The man with the most ironic name.

Running under the assumption that winter fuel is just a single nugget in a raft of shit that we will see in full come budget day. I get it. There’s a hole. Money has to be found. But it’s a huge fucking farce when you pointedly ignore the continuing Brexit damage all around us.

Alt: Gif of Fran from Black Books theatrically ignoring her boyfriend. Like British politicians ignoring Brexit.

Had #Grenfell Tower been a luxury apartment block housing wealthy people, I'm pretty sure that the prosecution and conviction of those who enabled the disaster would have happened by now.

I know people make a living from Twitter. They've built brands and followings and carved out niches. I get it. But whilst the sentiment of “I’m staying on Twitter to fight for it!” is very noble, I think it’s a fundamentally flawed understanding of the algorithm on that platform.

The mid-level management team at an abattoir that butchers competence and decency.
