I'm absolutely over the moon for you Pedro, well done for kicking cancer's arse! I wish you all the best with your recovery. Take it easy mate.

It goes by the home address. Sad but these kind of numbers are almost certainly the norm for areas like mine; I don't exactly live in a quaint little hamlet on a leafy lane.

Interesting, I see it breaks an area down into small wards. Mine has 1, but within about a mile or two radius it's in the 50s.

Sunday: 171

Either that or he was just checking his eyesight.

Gove’s the latest politician to be caught Twanking, having liked a gif of a “so hotttt 100” blow job (censored for forum purposes). When you’ve finished bashing one out, Mickey me ole china, d’you fancy focusing on the fucking pandemic?

Saturday: 258

I’ll try Jules Sedney please.

Since when has this been the thread for “the right perspective”?

Sounds like fun.

A good point on the re-opening of pubs:

Not long after Twitter fact-check labelled one of his unhinged tweets about postal ballots, they’ve now censored one of his tweets as having glorified violence. The tweet threatens the Minneapolis rioters “when the looting starts, the shooting starts”

Today’s Page 3 is a stunner!

David Baddiel, 86.

I reckon, out of the two, the older one will get the title.

Friday: 360

Is there a way to do this on an iPhone? I often resize when I’m on my laptop but haven’t sussed it on a phone yet.

Alright, keep it light! I agree though. At the moment I’m in enough of a state at 23 for fuck sake. I’d like 70 years maximum, or whenever I inevitably get dementia, whichever comes first.

Right-leaning comedians are rather pushed to the background, yeah. I do know one comedian (who I won’t name) who thinks Norcott is a prick even before he gets political, no idea whether that’s a widely held view but if it is that could explain his relative silence? I might be wrong here as I don’t watch it, but doesn’t he appear on Mash with Kumar? As for Lee Hurst, I saw him last year. His set didn’t get political once and it was brilliant! But yes, he did go fucking mad and he still kind of is. In real terms though, there’s not actually that many known right-wingers in comedy nowadays. But then a huge number of comics are Poxbridge educated so largely hold pretty uniform views

Oh yes, they‘ve not been bias-free for as long as I can remember, but particularly since the build up to the last election their political team have been in the fucking toilet. As msc said, the comedians lampooning the right is a by-product of most of them being left-leaning, but also probably because whoever is governing is clearly going to be more likely to absorb any satirical flak. Especially now Labour has gotten rid of the nutty bastard who was at the helm during the last couple of elections. Though I completely agree with you about Nish Kumar. That show is all about his agenda, it’s not satire and it’s sure as fuck not funny, not even to a (slightly) left-leaning shit eater like me I have always been a fan of Maitlis’ style however, and, though at times she has let her own views peek through the BBC’s apparent anti-bias shield (predominantly on social media), this case on Newsnight is not one of them. She was merely stating facts and questions that need to be answered!

I think very few people do at the moment

Absolutely fucking raging about this. The BBC’s DG and his politics department aren’t fit to lick her boots. This is what they describe as a breach of their ‘impartiality’ guidelines: So this is unacceptable, and yet Laura Kuenssberg can openly frig herself off whenever Johnson’s about and act as a cheerleader for Cummings, making up sources to aid his side of the story? And Andrew Neil can carry on doing his thing despite being on the Barclay Brothers’ payroll? Largely I love the BBC but when it comes to politics they can cunt off.

Yeah, it's a good one isn't it?
