Being brought up to never blow your own trumpet, and taught that boasting about yourself or your achievements makes you an awful person is quite the challenge when trying to get acting work, isn’t it?

Brilliant article about the venomous, venal Yorks. Give it a read.
As Trump rips into Starmer with insults and spite, it is sensible to remember that Trump lashes out when he is feeling vulnerable. This is a good sign, I reckon.
They have made a video making it absolutely clear that they are the bad guys. Good grief.
My favourite movie. It’s often difficult to persuade people to watch it simply because it’s in black and white so they think it’s dated. It is not dated, it is brilliant.
I’m sure that people trying to get back to the UK from the Middle East are having an awful time. Equally, I am unsurprised that those being evacuated by the UK gov are making a massive fuss, complaining, shouting and stamping their feet. The fabled stiff upper lip is clearly a thing of the past.
When the next president takes over from Trump, might I suggest she (or sadly more likely, he) has all the tasteless, gaudy golden ornaments removed from the White House to sell on eBay? The money raised could be put towards restoring the rose garden and the East Wing.
Read a novel. Escape into another world, it is really relaxing.
I expect he has bone spurs.
I do hope Isabel Oakenshot is working out how to evacuate from Dubai back to the UK with her tail between her legs, getting ready to pay some tax.
I expect her next stop will be America though.
Bracing myself for the next ‘poor little me’ article in the Telegraph.
I am not a good chess player, but I would win against Trump. He is too stupid to be able to see even one move ahead.
Idiot thinks he can kill Iran’s supreme leader and they won’t already have planned for exactly that.
Surely we have enough evidence now that there is a despot with plans for world domination in the White House?
World War 3 started some time ago.
It is also on all those dem voters who stayed home instead of voting for Hillary or Kamala
No.
America really does have a misogyny problem. Donald Trump won because Democrat voters couldn’t bring themselves to vote for a woman. That’s the ugly truth.
Keir Starmer gets huge amounts of hostility too. Happens to anyone on the left. Inevitable consequence of decades of Tories stuffing the media with their mates.
Operation Epic Fury. Toe-curlingly adolescent. Does he think he’s playing Fortnite? These are real people you are killing, Donald. Grow the fuck up and stop trying to impress your friends Vladimir and Bibi. They despise you.
Sorry what? Are people being pulled over for not conforming to gender norms?
Just switched off the telly box because there’s a Panorama programme about the cost of health benefits. Young girl whining about how hard her life is. Living on benefits - she can’t work bc she has ADHD. Needs benefits to fund disposable plates and cutlery. Lazy and self-indulgent imo but I’m old.
We’ve arrested Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor. On his birthday. Over to you, America. #EpsteinFiles
Whoever it was, it’s quite obvious that it wasn’t self-inflicted. Maybe one day the truth will come out. In the mean time, Ghislaine Maxwell is in extreme danger. She knows that the only way she can protect herself is by keeping silent.
Warehouses to store people. The inhumanity should shock everyone, but it doesn’t.
Who are we really?
In my teens I fancied the pants off Robert Redford. As I matured it was Paul Newman. The most beautiful man ever to walk the earth.
Do not forget that Epstein died in prison. Cameras were not working. Prison guards didn’t notice him killing himself. Trump was President at the time. If I were Ghislaine Maxwell I would be playing my hand very very carefully.
A woman saying it doesn’t make it any less sexist. You know that, right?
Couldn’t agree more.
Speaking as a long term Labour Party member, I truly believe that there is an historical misogyny problem in the party. There is most definitely a glass ceiling and anyone trying to break it is brought down. Many examples over the years.
When Keir Starmer stands down, whenever that is, for the love of god let’s elect a woman to lead the Labour Party. If we really want a reset, that’s what must happen. No more ego-driven, emotional men. We need a sensible, intuitive, intelligent woman able to connect with other world leaders.
Great example of the Dunning-Kruger effect in action.
