Welcome to the Garyneum, the 13 day period between the birthdays of Gary Numan and Gary Oldman.

Is it one of those competitions where the last one with their hand on it wins?

Me: What do you want to dress up as for world book day?
Daughter: A demagorgon.
Me: I don't think Stranger Things is a book.
Wife: (disappears with cereal packet) and a pair of scissors...

If anyone is friends with any Georgian air traffic controllers, buy them a nice bottle of wine. As guardians of pretty much the only narrow gap still available between Europe and Asia that avoids both Iran, the Gulf, Ukraine and Russia, they are under some substantial pressure.

It is 1991. I am 15 years old. The US has gone to war in the Middle East.

It is 2003. I am 27 years old. The US has gone to war in the Middle East.

It is 2026. I'm too old for this shit. The US has gone to war in the Middle East.

The European Commission have a hard rule: you retire at 65 from official functions.

That should be universal in politics and public administration. Everywhere. You can be an advisor. A part-timer. An NPC. But you cannot be the main character.

That date should increase with the retirement age.

I do feel like our national responsibility to evacuate UK citizens in the Middle East who went there on purpose to avoid paying UK tax is fairly limited.

Labour's swing toward racism is perhaps the biggest unforced error in British political history; burnt their base to ashes and won them not a single vote on the right.

Schools Admissions review announced: Humanists UK urges end to faith-based admissions discrimination The Schools Admissions Code is to be reviewed to β€˜to promote fairness for all families, particularly the most disadvantaged and children with additional needs’. This includes clearer in-year admission...

If schools admissions are to be truly fair...

No child should be blocked from attending their local state-funded school because their family is of the 'wrong' religion or belief.

We welcome this review, and will make sure ending religious discrimination is part of it.

TBF they still get way more play on 6Music than they merit. Don't dislike them, just seem to get played disproportionately often compared to Sleeper, Lush, Echobelly, etc.

How about we do reintroduce capital punishment, but *only* for racism. The Venn diagram of people who support them is practically a circle, so it's a win for society.

Fond memories of working at NTL, woman rang up screaming at me. Her husband in background shouts at her, β€œdon’t talk to them like that. They’re on fuck all”

Then he takes phone off her, and gives me a line which I have used myself since

β€œDo you have a manager you dislike intensely I can speak to?”

Happy 'Former Freemason, 51, found drunk and naked inside a huge pipe organ with a toy gun and remote-controlled police car says he got lost while trying to hand out cheeseburgers to the homeless' Day to those who celebrate.

And, before you ask, I'm 49.

That's shit. I've been enjoying Deb Grant's shows. Hopefully they'll finally sack off Giles Peterson and give her a weekend slot.

I hope every rich nonce in the UK & beyond is brought down because three hours in a custody cell with no staff and vending machine coffee breaks Andrew like a dropped trifle

Isn't that already a Green policy?

One thing I find mind-boggling is just how quickly we went from "live and let live" and "mind your own business" to "get up in everyone else's business in case they have the temerity to be living in a way you don't like"

It's the equivalent to the 'War on Drugs' policy of going after end level users rather than suppliers/importers. Makes no sense, won't work, and can be easily circumvented.

Not sure if Man United owner Jim Ratcliffe will see this being as he literally migrated to Monaco to avoid paying tax in the UK, but we wanted to put this up outside the stadium anyway….
