    Sad to hear that Jerry Pike of Atmosphere has died. This is one of my favourites of theirs:

    I'm happy to announce that a Tom Giles of Huntsville, Alabama is due to get his Covid vacation on 17th March at Madison County Hospital, 301 Max Luther Drive, Huntsville. It would be a shame for him to die from not knowing his own email address.

    For once I think has hit the nail on the head here.

    What's will happen next is Starmer's speech will be Milibandised. People will parse individual passages and sentences, and explain how it's all very radical and bold and different and exciting. And the voters will shrug, and go about their lives.

    This is an interesting article but doesn't mention dearly departed Jeremy Hardy who, from his regular seat on the News Quiz, provided the real left wing humour this author is desperately seeking.

    They've still got a massive advantage. Until universities take on no more than 7% from private schools it will continue. The test of success would be that numbers going to private school permanently decline.

    Oxbridge places are the stock in trade for Eton and other expensive private schools. The emergence of a fairer university admissions process means these schools are reduced to businesses trading in snob value.

    Still if they had chosen him, they'd currently be fighting against him. So I suppose it's no loss.

    All this week we're tweeting what asylum seekers and their kids get given to eat by the Home Office in hotel accommodation. Since they're banned from working, ineligible for benefits, and get only £8 a week, they have no choice but to eat what they're given.

    This shames Britain, and goes against everything we stand for as a nation. This wretched food should be changed and improved.

    Starmer's going after Labour-Tory switchers in the Red Wall and NOBODY else. Here are some problems with that: 1) the government is going after exactly the same voters by offering them exactly the same things. But, being the government, they're better placed to deliver them...

    That 10%+ uniform swing for a Lab majority of 1 in 2024 is looking as remote as ever. Electoral pacts with , PR & radical constitutional reform as its glue the only viable strategy Success of vaccine rollout pushes Tories ahead of Labour in the polls

    It is with great sadness we must stop sending our cheese to the EU. Due to an oversight in the Free Trade deal it is impossible for us to send cheese to our EU online consumers. DEFRA has told us not to expect an exemption or change anytime soon. Investment & hope is lost today😪

    On the left £30 of food. On the right what private company Chartwells have supplied having been awarded a government contract to supply for £30 free school meals. Utterly shameful profiteering off some of the country's most disadvantaged kids!

    The Night of the Short Fingers saw many of the US's largest tech companies blocking Trump and trumpist platforms like Parler, provoking a storm of punditry about What It All Means for the tech companies to have taken this content moderation step. 1/

    I doubt there are many outside of Norway that know that the Norwegian pop group A-ha was critical in the introduction of electric car incentives in Norway. I certainly didn't. Read on...

    Of course a Trump spokesperson has no books. She doesn't even know what a book case should look like. She's bought a fake one that's half empty.

    Erin Elmore. Credibility is hard to maintain when you forget to iron the creases out of your bookcase.

    And the silence from Kier Starmer on this is deafening as usual.

    Absolutely no mention from the BBC that they derided plans Labour put forward to ensure all children could access the internet as "Communism".
