I’m engaged with politics and:

a) I haven’t watched a single one of these tv debates
b) I’m sick of the sound of the lot of them.

Keep your eyes on the prize. As John Oliver said this week, “If a wild badger broke into your home and fucked everything up for 14 years straight, tearing absolutely everything apart, you would think, ‘OK, you know what, we’ll worry about redecorating choices later. Right now, that badger needs to fucking go.’”

@swisslet I would say there is slight flaw though: that presupposes that the alternative isn't also a badger

@zbrown @swisslet The alternative may not be everyone’s first choice. But there is nothing that comes close to the sheer wild-badgeriness of Cameron-Johnson-May-Truss-Sunak

@swisslet not voting Green is a difficult decision, but I want Ruth Edwards to feel humiliated and to carry that message back to CCHQ

@Brennig she has richly deserved humiliation at the polls. 4.5 years of voting with the whip, defending the indefensible and of total absence in her constituency. Her sudden flurry of activity on social media now is just brazen and transparent. Dreadful. I’ve even seen Labour banners in farmers' fields, and I never thought that would be possible around here.

@swisslet as long as your solution is not to introduce another badger....

Which currently seems to be it.
