Simon Evans always ‘likes’ my tweets to him but I guess he’s just being polite :-(
I’d mainly be chuffed with Jarvis Dupont, if I were you.

Amazing how malleable you can be around what is and isn’t racist when you’re on the left.

The fact is that j was only ever tolerable because his batshít lefty craziness seemed like a bit of a joke and a relic of a bygone age. Now that there are people out there vying to run the country who make him look like a moderate, it's much less amusing, tbh.Quote:

How does it feel to be hanging out with all us horrid fascists?Quote:

It’s also terrible analysis. Every poll makes it clear that Boris cuts through across a broader demographic than any other candidate. Far broader than Corbyn.Quote:

When people on my side do it I lap it up and I’m sure Jorge’s followers feel the same.
