After a surprisingly pleasant telephone conversation with Graham @Glinner Linehan (set up by our legal teams) I am delighted to confirm that Mr Linehan has apologised for his defamatory tweet. He has also agreed to donate a significant sum to a trans support charity of my choice.
With profound regret, Graham @Glinner Linehan has refused to delete his defamatory post. I have no other choice but to instruct my solicitors to take the necessary action against Mr Linehan. Unless otherwise informed, service will be effected on @SpeechUnion.

Heartsick at the death of Sauron, The Deceiver - an outrageously evil and gifted dark lord. He had a unique talent for doing the thing that was obviously evil but then doing it with such panache as to give maximum possible offence - and to all the men of the west. Orcs loved him.

This is... really quite good. It's been so long since I saw effective government communication that I'd almost forgotten what it looks like.
What do you call one of these…

The planet appears to be burning and half of England is officially in drought. Does anyone have any good news today? 😂🤣😂

Wow. Wowee. If Professor David Balls is impressed, then something mightily impressive must have taken place. David is NOT easily impressed. There must be some seriously impressive talent governing this, whatever it is that has taken place.
I’m so impressed. Steve is correct that Piers is correct, this is really impressive.

Count Binface, a comedian with a trash can on his head, is set to be the main challenger to run against Nigel Farage after the Reform UK leader said he'll quit as lawmaker and seek reelection to clear his name over donation allegations.

Spare a thought for Keir Mather today. He’s lost a Father figure, his mentor and his hero all in one.

I today urge @2012Studies to set out a timetable for his departure from his prime parking space at the University of Borehamwood®️. The country needs change, and I’m sick of walking 5 minutes from my car to the office 😂🤣😂🤣😂
