- Comment on French newspaper: The British elites always talk about their special-relationship. They claim the americans are their lovely cousins. But do US elites actually respect them ? 6 days ago:
Some US elites absolutely love us and have ‘afternoon tea’, including (inexplicably) cucumber sandwiches. The current crop of wankers don’t give two shits about us and wouldn’t piss on us if we were on fire.

"… a new free speech network… to actually talk about the issues people don’t want to talk about.”
Fucking hell, Liz, you absolute lettuce!

- Comment on I can't believe it 1 week ago:
We didn’t just steal the spices, we stole cooks too. Eg, our first curry house was 1810, run by a Bengali chap. So we didn’t piss about with traditonal English dishes to get our spice fix, we just went out for a ruby instead.

“How much British steel was used in the end?”
“Approximately none, give or take a kg or two.”
“But didn’t you agree to use British steel where possible.”
“Absolutely, and we did. Where possible. As agreed.”
“But why didn’t you use more?”
“It wasn’t possible, I’d like to be clear on that point.”
“Why wasn’t it possible?”
“Chinese steel was cheaper.” - Comment on Blobfish 4 weeks ago:

I don’t hate the guy or anything, I just find his deadpan delivery a little dull and don’t understand why he gets as much work as he does.

It’ll be fucking Romesh Ranganathan, won’t it, because everything made at the moment has to have him in it.
- Comment on Amazon is changing what is written in books 1 month ago:
I mean it’s not an easy question to answer is it? How is my ideological position that ‘nigger’ is not acceptable and removing it makes the book suitable for modern readers any different from someone else’s ideological position that, e.g., ‘transgender’ is not acceptable and removing it makes whatever book suitable for modern readers?
- Comment on Amazon is changing what is written in books 1 month ago:
A punchier example would be And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie - the best selling murder mystery of all time - which was first published as Ten Little Niggers

Those are rookie numbers. 764 mph in a 30mph zone is where it’s at nowadays.
- Comment on Why are headhunters or recruiters so laser focused on getting my resume? 2 months ago:
I don’t have a huge amount of respect for recruiters having been involved with them on both sides of hiring process.
It often feels like they treat it like a numbers game - minimise effort by just throwing enough resumes at a job and hope one will stick then earn your cut. Thats going to earn them more than seriously trying to match candidates with jobs.

- Comment on Wimbledon school crash: Woman rearrested over deaths of two girls 2 months ago:
Hmm. I was present when a friend discovered he had epilepsy when he had his first seizure. It was life-changingly awful for him. He had to give up his university course (chemical engineering IIRC), his planned vocation, and - amongst other things - his driving license.
If this is a genuine case then I really feel for Claire Freemantle, 48. She’s discovered she’s epileptic, has accidentally killed two children, and now it is being implied she did it on purpose.
- Comment on Gig economy firms warned by UK government they may be operating illegally 2 months ago:
Good. Almost all ‘disrupters’ are basically about sidestepping regulations which is what allows them to undercut legitimate companies which are compliant.
- Comment on Axel Rudakubana: 'Evil' Southport killer jailed for minimum 52 years 2 months ago:
Dude’s 18 now so this means he’ll be in prison until he’s 70. At least.
And no, absolutely no death penalty until the justice system can be proven to be completely flawless and incapable of convicting an innocent. And even then I’d say no.
