My modification of standard menu items at the Indian is more creative than Blackpool’s midfield today.

Regarding Britain preparing to send an aircraft carrier.
It would be fucking stupid not to. Even if it’s not needed, it needs to be ready to be used and in a position to be useful. This is not our war. But if we are dragged into it by either US or Iranian actions, we have to be prepared.

Genuinely deliberately not watching any of the #Paralympics following the statement about allowing disabled Russian soldiers to compete.

Well I wasn’t expecting much from today’s match, and at least my expectations were met.
Can’t fault the effort, but no quality, no creativity. Relegation wouldn’t come as a surprise.

It’s March, so you can now eat a Creme Egg in public rather than unwrapping it in your pocket and shoving it all in your mouth in one go when nobody is looking.

Not being racist used to be seen as a positive thing.

Remember the good old days when the worst thing politicians did was to claim for an extra box of teabags and get caught shagging their secretary?

Right. Off to the chippy, then stop off at the footy on the way home.

Farage is a constituency MP. He is not a member of the UK government and has no mandate or authority to speak on behalf of the British people. His opinion is just that.

We need to keep pointing this out every time he tries to use his influence internationally.

BBC’s Saturday Kitchen Live is just a vehicle for promoting expensive wine and alcohol.

If someone is your friend and is determined to do something stupid, you can try and stop them, and you can refuse to encourage and go along with them. That’s what decent people do.

Blackpool Pleasure Beach scraps free admission for carers The theme park introduces a Β£25 charge for carers to accompany people with disabilities.

Can’t wear my most recent #BlackpoolFC shirt to the match today - it’s last seasons third kit, and it’s sponsored by Blackpool Pleasure Beach, who are a disgrace.

Matchday. Can’t be arsed. We’re playing Wigan, so I can’t have a pie at the chippy for lunch. Is a pudding ok, or should I avoid all pie-type stuff and just have fish? Or am I over-thinking this?

They put β€˜Family Pack’ on large bags of Mini Eggs to make you feel guilty. Doesn’t work.

Paul Simon was crashing on my mates sofa in Kilburn while touring Britain. He dropped him at Heathrow on his motorbike when he went back to New York. He released Bridge Over Troubled Water, and my mate never saw him again.

I wish American people world stop talking about gas prices. It’s making me worry about my central heating costs. It’s petrol, FFS.

They were always going to nuke someone. I just assumed it would be somewhere full of brown people.

Well said George Monbiot. It certainly went down well with the audience and not James Cleverly.

He can use his time in detention to reflect. And learn how to spell 'halted'.

I bought some silicone tube nozzles and caps. They were on offer. I have no immediate need for them. They will go in the garage never to be seen again.

There was a 5% drop in turnout, 300 less voters.
Labour got similar votes to labour+independent last time. Reform dropped 200+ votes.
Hard to be more specific as there were two seats voted for at the original election.
