Still, it's gratifying to learn that Mids' and my clever wordplay has the power to influence professional comedians and to turn heumourless old reactionaries peuce with impotent rage.
Do you think we should stop, Mids? We don't want to become Establishment, do we?

I think you misunderstand. It's just repetitive and boring just like the BBC's comedians. You, like them, should try and find new jokes.

Interesting that Ali Stabbi Ali lives in quite a nice neighbourhood in London and that his dad is an advisor to the government of Somalia. Goodness knows what kind of advice he's giving because the place is a failed state cackhole.
I expect he's a bag man for the current Somali PM's special investment portfolio in London. Nice work if you can get it.

"I think origin will mean Somali born but UK citizen. Heritage will mean Somali ancestors but British born." Yeah, that's what I was driving at. I suspect that he was probably born here though. The Somalian father of the suspected terrorist alleged to have killed Conservative MP Sir David Amess in Friday's horrific knife attack in Essex while meeting his constituents said he had been left 'traumatised' by the shock of his son being arrested for the crime. Harbi Ali Kullane, a former communications advisor to the Prime Minister of Somalia, spoke to The Sunday Times to confirm that his British-born son Ali Harbi Ali, 25, was in police custody following the stabbing at Sir David's constituency surgery in Leigh-on-Sea. It’s so weird they way they say that: “British born”. So British then. I don’t recall Thomas Mair being referred to as “British born”. Anyway pretty sad for the MP. More men.

The line to take is quickly coalescing here. It's all about social media and threats and offensive language. Oddly, Rayner's name hasn't come up once. It's all about the appalling behaviour of the unwashed and there seems to be at least as much time spent discussing St Jo than Sir Dave, by Labour politicians at least. Little talk of the actual murderer. Why would her name come up? You think this man died because a politician was referred to as “scum”. You’re being a complete snowflake (and hypocrite to boot.)

The evil, treacherous BBC have, very cunningly, reframed the Islamic terrorist murder of David Amess to make it about showing more kindness to our MPs.
This would be like saying, after the Manchester Arena bombing, that we really must be nicer to our teenagers; or, after the London Bridge van attack, that we should drive more carefully; or after the Westminster Bridge attack, that we should be nicer to pedestrians on bridges; or after the 7/7 tube butchery, to please be more considerate to fellow passengers on crowded trains.
As if Ali Harbi Ali were just a disgruntled constituent with an axe to grind about potholes in the roads or the price of cornflakes.
No, no, no.
This completely misses the point. The issue is NOT being nicer to our MPs, the issue is Islamic terrorism.
By refusing to acknowledge that fact (in their news bulletins they don’t even mention the words Islamic or islamist) the BBC are complicit in murder. So St Joe killed by right wing fanatic and Sir David killed by British man......

Look, I know you're a bit obsessed in pushing this unhinged view of the BBC (its not new), but this is the second MP murdered in 5 years, many others have been attacked verbally and physically, with only this latest one being Islamic, Jo Cox was murdered by a brextremist remember. So yes calling for greater protection of MP's in general is a very valid point to be making, its called looking at the bigger picture.

They're converting the pier. It'll be the longest pleasure cathedral in the world.

Funny old pier, that one. It's where the locals go to break their necks after getting pissed-up. The water's only about two feet deep.
