TQR

I wouldn’t say I admired him. Being an LGBT+ he certainly wouldn’t have cared much for me, as his aversion to them having equal rights would suggest. So there’s that, he was anti-abortion at all costs, Pro-Brexit at all costs, the list goes on. I’m sure I’d gladly have called him all the undesirables under the sun. I’m sure I did at some point. But none of that comes into the equation. He was brutally, senselessly murdered by a coward who sought to damage democracy. When a tragedy like this happens, it should never be politicised. It’s a desperately tragic incident, very much reminiscent of Jo Cox which happened just 5 years ago. It shouldn’t happen to anyone. Their families shouldn’t have to go through that. Other MPs shouldn’t have to live in fear of being filleted by a stranger for simply doing their job. It’s a very dark day for this country.

I do hate it. It’s two songs that were brilliant, ruined by mashing them up with a generic school disco pop backing track, near Cher levels of auto tune for Elton, and Dua Lipa who’s very much at her best doing her own thing rather than bastardising someone else’s. Fabulous achievement though, can’t take that away from him.

One of the very few things I agreed with Amess on tbh.

Killed for doing his job. Appalling news.

Southend Tory MP David Amess stabbed multiple times at constituency surgery. EDIT: In before some cunt says he’s been made Amess of.

As you can see, people are chomping at the bit to get going on that.

A negative PCR confirms I have this fucking “supercold” going about. It’s not just a Mirror-friendly doom-mongering headline; it’s proper shit.

So, the Covid Report finds that the UK’s response to the pandemic was the worst public heath failure ever. It’s utterly damning conclusions should mean that Johnson and his government are fucked from arsehole to breakfast, via condemnation to decades in opposition. Where’s Sir Keith, Leader of the Opposition? Piss balling about in a lorry.

Brassic, on Sky. Best new sitcom in ages.

Brokenshire had a pretty unpalatable voting record in my view, but 53 is no age and no family deserves this. Shame.

Raab once again proves he’s as sharp as a marble on BBC Breakfast. I hope I’m not being misogynistic by saying what a stupid bastard the man is.

Fucking hell, what a dead set cunt. No respect or consideration for Sarah’s grieving family whatsoever.

Online dating in a nutshell:

I’ve long thought my name was fucking tasteless but I’ve felt the need to stick with it because it was a bit of an in-joke with myself at the time, and rebrands are kind of annoying. Time to change, though. Could I have my name changed to TQR please? And my tag (I promise never to ask again) changed to “A Mystery Wrapped In An Echidna” It’s not a complete change, but, y’know, it’s a bit less unsavoury. Could take on several meanings, too. Typically Quite Rancorous? That Queer Ranter? The Queen’s Redundant? Who knows?
