I'm fucking tired of "liberal" used as an insult. Liberalism gave you the vote. Liberalism gave you equality. Liberalism gave you your inalienable rights. Liberalism gave you free fucking speech. Liberalism is the enemy of tyrants, and I'll be forever proud to defend it.

@RNLI It doesn't matter who these people are, why they're there, where they're going, where they've come from, or how old they are. The entire purpose of the RNLI is to rescue people at sea. Who. Ever. They. Are. Is anyone seriously still pretending not to get this?

Make no mistake. Any hint of deporting the #WindrushGeneration is nothing but a racist repatriation policy. It is lifted from the fascist playbook, and bears no resemblance to any notion of what Britain has aspired to be since 1945. Our government is a disgrace.

As Nick Clegg receives a knighthood, enraging right and left, a quick reminder that the country decided to punish him for going in to coalition with Tories, by giving the Tories a majority on a mandate to slash public services, ruin the NHS and gamble our entire future on Brexit.

There will be no "blitz spirit" as Brexit bites, for two simple reasons. 1. The actual blitz was caused by an unavoidable war against an authoritarian, right-wing, populist cult. 2. Today's issue is being caused by an entirely avoidable authoritarian, right-wing, populist cult.

I don't know what Christmas Day has in store, but if Theresa May throws open the top window at Downing Street and frantically asks a street urchin what day it is, we'll know the three ghosts have done us a solid.

@RalfLittle I love how Our Anthony grew up to become the closest thing Britain currently has to an opposition leader.

To anyone asking how I know, I don't take a census so I acknowledge it's *possible* that I've thrown out a non-practicing Muslim. But given I generally only have to throw out pink drunks crying white victimisation while racially abusing colleagues, I'm happy with my assessment.

No. I won't respect the result. No. I don't respect anyone who stands by their Leave vote. No. I don't respect MPs for blindly leading a crowd off a cliff to give their careers a few more months. Now fuck off and let the rest of us clean up the mess.

A quick message for the disinterested, the apathetic, the ignorant and the complacent portion of Western society. Remember how you've called the German people idiotic/corrupt/evil/brainwashed for letting Hitler happen? Well you're about to find out how that feels.

Walking past the Daily Express on the newspaper stand each day is like looking in to the mind of a relative suffering a nervous breakdown. "Foreign!" "Diana!" "Wind!" "Germs!" "Pills!" "Yoghurt!"

When the press claim victory because a hated shed-dwelling pig-enthusiast says Brexit is a tiny bit less of a catastrophe than he previously imagined, we see exactly how low the bar for success has fallen in Britain, and who's responsible. #StopBrexit

Jeremy Corbyn: "Unseating the Tories is my biggest priority of all. There's nothing more important." The amount of times Corbyn referenced #CambridgeAnalytica during the first PMQs since the company, employed by Theresa May in the 2017 snap election campaign, was exposed: Zero.
