Did I complain about it? In a serious manner? That doesn't sound like me.

I don't know how serious you were. I was thinking of comments like this:

Is there some way we can smuggle Benway into that wedding? Maybe get him a job in the catering crew, and give him a bottle of Jim Beam beforehand.

Yeah, I probably did write that. I like it now though. Security. Peace of mind. That sort of thing. And I actually enjoy the job i've got now which is always nice.

A more interesting project would be to see if we can get him legitimately invited.

Which in the the racier days of TMO would have prompted a load of posts dreaming up ways to make it happen.

His dad was like, Mayor of Kent or something, so there's got to be some connections somewhere along the line.

Or Vikram could probably introduce Benway to Kate Middleton, and Benway could turn on his legendary Benway charm, ie asking if she wanted to join him smoking a crack pipe in a portaloo.

There's something weirdly sinister about Kate's dress + the pose + the ring in all the engagement photos. William is attempting to marry his mother.

Like Michael Douglas, whose mother was thirty years younger than him, Welsh, and a beautiful hollywood actress.

Exactly.

Actually, look at Michael Douglas's mum:

Rocking that matching blouse and parasol look.

It took the spider three weeks to eat her. Something of a scandal at the time, if I recall correctly. Mind you, pretty much anything was something of a scandal in those days.

Just a flash in the pan, surely. More reasonable minds will prevail. Just like they did in the US in 2016. Surely not a symptom of a broader trend toward nationalism and fascism that would lay a path to a new war in Europe.

Just checking the scorecard here, Informed optimism nil, Schopenhauer one.

The problem is, this isn't something that gets voted for every few years. It will need another referendum and the CONservatives will continue to pander to their Brexit-voting buffoons who got them into government

So, unless another party takes power (which I can't see any time soon due to lack of faith/interest in the opposition, old people still believing the bullshit and voter apathy), sadly this won't be anything I foresee happening any time soon

I'm hanging on to the hope that partygate, Sunakwifegate, and holyshiteverythingisexpensivegste will "cut through" enough that we'll see a change of government at some point in the not too distant future.

Starmer may not be the most exciting politician to have led a party in recent times, but isn't the country sick of "exciting" yet?

YOU IDIOTS!

AET: I wrote this post on a "smartphone" because I am from the future. Wooooo...

It's so lovely to see that some of us retain the optimism of our wonder years on here. Sadly, I'm starting to believe that the masses are becoming the sheeple the Eton overlords have dreamed of since they fornicated with the heads of pigs, like some perverted homage to Animal Farm.

When I did speak to my parents, they seemed to think such shenanigans were easily forgivable, whilst the idea of a Marxist Labour government was beyond comprehension, even though when questioned about what a Marxist was, my mother couldn't answer that. It's the same as in Russia - people want to be told what is what. No one wants to think for themselves - they simply don't want that responsibility. And it's for that very reason, not matter how my dear UK friends who are fighting for their kids futures, alas I think it is a futile attempt.

The world is fucked kiddies, utterly, utterly fucked.
