'I am going shoplifting later, but only in Homebargains, so will only be breaking the law in a very specific and limited way'

Psychopaths and sociopaths taking the p*** out of minorities just about sums it up but Stewart Lee puts a more sophisticated gloss on it: Yep no one with any sense of empathy will surely challenge that. And more from the great man: https://www.stewartlee.co.uk/written_for_money/where-are-all-the-right-wing-stand-ups/ And yet more from Stewart this time aimed at people...
Chris Loder MP and Co: Where is your letter acknowledging the murder, rape and pillaging by British Imperialists?
Chris Loader, the Dorset West MP, has written a letter to the Daily Torygraph complaining about the BBC's decision to play an instrumental only version of 'Land of Hope and Glory' and 'Rule Britannia' at the Last Night of the Proms. Whatever one thinks of the lyrics of these songs...
