Same pattern in UK polling. YouGov's last big poll on trans issues also indexed respondents' views on other social prejudices, and what do you know - pro-trans respondents were much more likely to recognise misogyny and see it as a problem, anti-trans respondents more likely to dismiss it!

Many years ago I was in a GP surgery waiting room when someone came in, announced to the receptionist that he’d got his stool sample, and handed in a suspiciously large Tupperware. As he left the receptionist muttered “I thought he was supposed to be constipated”

When I had to provide a sample for an H.Pylori infection test, they specified ‘a pea-sized amount’. I remember thinking ‘Well, are we talking marrowfat or petit pois?’

I’m 50 now so I’ve just received an NHS bowel cancer screening kit in the post. You’ve got to wonder about the people who made it necessary not only to include the ‘please do not add extra!’ instruction, but also to put it in bold type

Just feeling the need to chip into this conversation to add that it’s five minutes to midnight and my next-door neighbour’s children are playing a game of running up and down the living room screaming and jumping off furniture on to a laminate floor

She was also sharing a video clip of Farage claiming Zelenskyy is a liar

Yes, I thought that too. Either she’s changed it for attention or her parents were numbskulls. Both seem equally likely.

Oh and of course she’s a Reform voter

Just a member of the public annoyed that a news article about an attempted murder doesn’t have any pictures of the crime being committed

Nothing and nobody sleeps in weirder positions than a) small children and b) lurcher dogs.

Yes! And she was lovely and very grateful. Faith in humanity restored!

It’s the character he plays too - so, so like my dad, right down to the way he behaves in the care home and the weirdly confusing conversations

My dad’s dead, obviously. It would be weird if I was crying about it otherwise.

Just got round to watching Small Prophets and Michael Palin’s character in his care home reminds me SO much of my dad that I might have to have a little cry

Amused at Trump saying ‘We’re not dealing with Winston Churchill’ about Starmer. No, if you were dealing with Winston Churchill we’d have already have been fighting a war for two years before your lot even turned up, you scabby orange dough ball

That reminds me of the time my mum found a stranger’s lost handbag in the street, (containing purse, cash, cards, glasses and keys, everything) and the owner got annoyed that she was expected to collect it, rather than my mum travelling to another town by public transport to deliver it to her door
