In case anyone's forgotten: In 2020-21 the Department of Health and Social Care bought PPE valued at £2.6 BILLION POUNDS which "is not suitable for use within the health and social care sector."

Slightly macabre thought: David Walliams' legal argument was that if the allegations were published he would do a certain thing. Now that the allegations have been published, if he fails to do the thing, will he be in contempt of court? Or if he made a sworn statement, perjury?

Look, I might have lost track of things in not being so Extremely Online these days, but you're saying that a big part of Andrew Tate's extradition case rests on him NOT owning the @ofwudan account? Cos, well...

On 19 July 2024, I published two posts on my X account in which I made allegations about Mr Mothin Ali being involved in the Harehills riots. I have accepted these were incorrect and I have jointly made a statement in open Court in order to apologise to Mr Ali and correct the record which is below. archive.org/details/JSIOC-MA…

Everything is improved with the Bottom theme tune. Here, Jagger and Bowie get the Bum Notes treatment.

Cutting red tape costs taxpayers nothing. It’s a common sense solution to get Britain building.

If we were all to send Danny Tommo an @RNLI Christmas card simply containing "LOL", it would make a lot of money for a brilliant charity and be hilarious at the same time. Cards can be purchased here shop.rnli.org/collections/ch… Please spread the word.

My brother Kris would have been 53 today. He was a Royal Navy fighter pilot, flying the FA2 Sea Harrier from our aircraft carriers and then the Harrier GR9. He flew 160 missions in Afghanistan. Lieutenant Commander Kris Ward. In November 2018 he took the decision to end his own life soon after his 45th birthday. No matter how well you think your friends and family are doing, dig a little deeper. Be there for them. They may need your help. When it’s too late it’s too late.
