chip-shop chips aren't thin French fries, more like steak fries! crisps are great in a butty too tho

gravy and cheese is a classic, I'm more concerned about the curry and cheese combo

(obv paneer masala is spectacular but British takeaway curry + mature cheddar? cursed)

How do we get them to spend more time infighting and splintering into smaller and smaller factions, instead of merging back into one big mega far-right group?

I reckon there's more nuance here. The quote I've seen from him on a BBC article seems pretty reasonable:

"So what I'm arguing for is a pause while the other options are considered, because of course we need the infrastructure; it's a matter of doing it in the right way that has a long-term benefit."

He seems happy about the offshore wind farm plans, he supposedly proposed several alternatives to the pylon positioning "including the idea of an offshore grid."

I think considering they're an 184km stretch of pylons, he's not wholly unreasonable to ask for more consideration and conversation about it being done in a way that minimises harm to the environment and the communities affected.

Edit: Had a longer look through other comments and now realise that environmental consultation was already thoroughly completed. Which means Ramsey's request for consultation has already been met, so he shouldn't be able to prevent anything because (fingers crossed) it'll all be environmentally sound anyways?

It's upsetting that people vote for people they don't know anything about. I read up on all the options and met 2 of the people who stood as MPs in my area. The reform candidate in my area just wrote their favourite biscuit in the personal statement section and basically nothing else.

I love that, by his own analogy, he has implied that Tory voters are either rats or children. Hating the image of Nigel playing a flute (or a pipe, I guess?) either way

There must be a joke somewhere about them identifying as "politically homeless" whilst encouraging transphobic ideals so far that they'll vote Reform. Completely bizarre

Freedom of speech is protection from legal restrictions, not protection from criticism from David Tennant
