spokesperson for Sadiq Khan: “We are not going to dignify his appalling and bigoted comments with a response. “London is the greatest city in the world, safer than major US cities, and we’re delighted to welcome the record number of US citizens moving here.”
I was talking about this today. I had no idea that it had a name. Some of us can tell AI written content A MILE AWAY.
Oh, it’s been about for years. It’s inferior, obviously.
I remembered Susan Hall then and had a little giggle
I should hope so!
I would fully take it from room to room and pretend to be cabin crew
😍
Honestly America, you've got an absolute fucking moron for President being advised by a heroin addict telling you not to give your kids the medicine that has helped kept you alive all this time. Sort it out cheers.
Never mind the bins, show us that drinks trolley
We’ve been lighting the fire for 10 days!
Nigel Farage claim: "We are not the world's food bank, it is not for us to provide welfare to people coming in from all over the world" Reality: The average migrant on the Skilled Worker visa had a net fiscal impact of +£16,300 in 2022/23. In contrast, the average UK-born adult had about +£800
We have plans to take her to Ireland if that happens.
I feel the same. We have GBNews watching relations and have heard them parrot some of the nonsense that’s broadcast on there. When we suggested that they may want to check their facts, there was a terrible row.
Oh I’m sure she is. It’s interesting that it isn’t mentioned in the piece though.
The bit missing from this piece is that he’s just purchased a mansion… IN IRELAND. Presumably intending to live there. His views on living in the EU are flexible, it seems. www.breakingnews.ie/ireland/bill...
Where do we fucking start though?
I reckon it’s the latter.
Doubt it TBH. You used an umlaut 👌
I’d have written *being paid by Russia* but I think we’re both right.
Imagine ANYONE thinking that Donny will ever meet Jesus…
Also, imagine not knowing how to work YOUR OWN social media platform.
More of this nonsense: youtu.be/W1L6UdGO7XU
‘Answer me one question love, where’s my Clint?’ is one of the funniest lines ever written.
Also, he thinks that ‘asylum’ means that the people are insane and in insane asylums… rather than that they are CLAIMING asylum. It boggles my mind to think that people actually voted for someone like this to be their leader.
He’ll literally go to war to stop people talking about his best mate Epstein.
He’s also just moved to Ireland. Which is in the EU… m.independent.ie/irish-news/b...
😂
😂
Good use of a rainy day on board:
Awks.
Just like 1997
So he can live in the EU but he campaigned to stop me being able to. Right. Horrible man.
He says he still lives in the UK in that article. If he’s moved to the EU… well 🤡
Dyson products are shit and he’s an odious creep. The very epitome of ‘I’m alright, Jack’ www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home...
When I had it a couple of months ago, the doc said that the tests very often don’t work for the new strains. Now the pandemic is over, they aren’t bothering to update the tests. So… it still could be.
This fancy prosecco brand would make a bloody brilliant sponsor for The Trawl Podcast. @jemmaforte.bsky.social @marina-purkiss.bsky.social @thetrawl.bsky.social
This week, we go in search of 'the prettiest village on the UK canals' As always on a narrowboat, the journey there isn't straightforward. This one involves meeting two boats in 'The Narrows ' and the shock of a loud bang from the propeller! Watch now: youtu.be/W1L6UdGO7XU
Thank you! Let me know what you think. I like this one.
This one was fun to film and there’s a bit of actual drama (as well as the usual bickering and sarcasm).
If only, she recorded an album (unsigned, presumably) thetab.com/2025/09/08/r...
That article says that Johnson wanted to send ALL migrants that crossed back to France…
Yep. The Johnson government turned them down. www.france24.com/en/france/20...
Didn’t the French offer this under the last government?
The thing is, she’s definitely had lessons and thinks she’s REALLY good.
If I were Melania, I’d probably also find a hat that made sure that people couldn’t see the look on my face too.
First job: GET THEM OFF X
She’s famous for HOLDING A FUCKING SWORD, so should prob mind her business.
I for one would absolutely love a @quietriotpod.bsky.social special on Nick Clegg.
Trump? It must means ‘fart’ in British.
Janey would fucking love this. Bravo!
cant wait to explain this to my (extremely american) coworkers
👌 Chef’s kiss
Any report of someone ‘orange’ in that list, refers to someone else entirely.

“Inspector Gadget is the only person who can play it in full. Mr Tickle tried but couldn’t get a tune out of it.”
Doing Europe’s last sleeper train that GOES ON A BOAT is one of our highlights of 2025. We can’t wait to do it again!
“Spoil”
Outstanding
Ah. Okay. Sorry to offend.
Take are cuntry bak. I guess I am preaching to choir, but this is good.
Is this where JD Vance stayed when he was in the UK?
Why?
It’s a list of his lies. I hope many people watch it.
Donald Trump is a cunt (Just in case anyone was in any doubt about my feelings).
Horrifying appeasement.
Only surprising because you’d assume she has no friends at all.
FYI It’s Channel 4.
And yet, apparently no free speech here 🤡
I quite like #IOS26 I mean, at least it LOOKS different and I can tell it’s been updated.
And tomorrow, the UK has to host the disgusting monster who started this and allowing it to happen.
They work really well
Tories / Reform
It’s less than TWO weeks since the Home Secretary was telling people to hang England flags wherever they like. 🙃
Daphne du Maurier
Mines not far away from being full. I DO NOT WANT the blue black one.
Yes. Kinda depressing.
Oh! Is it that simple?
Oh interesting! I wonder if it’s connected to the fact that you can only see the Dolomites when it’s cold?
Of course! I’m sure you’ve been subject to the odd eye roll too.
Ian, it’s the hope that kills you.
They were lovely kittens
Yes. She was the oldest and he was the youngest of the litter. They were inseparable as soon as they could see.
Mum put some puppy pads down and he’s using them. It’s not ideal but at least it isn’t the carpet! He’s also started trying to stop his sister (Jewel) from eating, I think it’s to do with that.
I’d assume it’s similar. It’s to do with the Dolomites and the wind isn’t it? Presumably the Venetians are already in their big coats because we’re already into September?
My mum’s ginger tom (Jester) has recently started to do this
He should be arrested if he tries to come here. You can’t incite violence and there not be consequences.
Quite
Not unless he owns the Daily Mail, anyway.
His daughter hates him. That’s the difference.
LONDON BRIDGE We all fucking knew
I find the climate in Venice very bizarre. Summer just vanishes and then it’s bone achingly cold for months. Having said that, winter is my fav!
They work too!
Jealous!
They stop the heat being isolated around the woodburner and push it up the boat
My favourite thing about spending winter on board
We gave it and lit it. First fire of the season.
Yep. I can’t think of one who isn’t cringe makingly embarrassing
Why are these billionaires such fucking losers?
So he’s NOT being sacked for being in charge of the appalling strategy… but for something that happened in 2017. Okay.
