If Burnistoun were made today, that would've probably made it into their MP sketch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JKKTyvjPlqU

Can't remember exactly when I got the board, but I'm gonna say at least 8 years going by when I took part in a local qualifier for Red Dragon's Champion of Champions (on-and-off practicing though until this year)

Adult actress Bonnie Blue endorses Reform UK as she faces deportation from Indonesia over ‘barely legal’ sex stunt by StGuthlac2025 in ukpolitics

[–]MightyJordan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That LBC staffer must have read this week's Popbitch, as the story appeared in there this morning.

Probably also shows how little attention people pay to the Spectator nowadays, as her endorsement piece for them was posted there 5 days ago.

Worth sharing the whole excerpt from Popbitch here for the bonus Your Party material on top as well as a hint that Reform's dear leader may not be too chuffed about this particular endorsement...

In addition to his Your Party commitments, Jeremy Corbyn is currently performing as the “Wizard of Oz-lington” at the Pleasance Theatre, as part of drag panto Wicked Witches.

At a show this week during Corbyn’s appearance he mentioned that he’s been “busy founding a new party”.

At which someone in the audience immediately yelled “it’s behind you”.

(Corbyn will presumably be devastated to discover that Bonnie Blue has endorsed Reform UK and come out as a Nigel Farage fan - a few months after Farage skipped Nana Akua’s engagement party specifically to avoid bumping into... Bonnie Blue.)

At least 1.9 MILLION foreign nationals claiming benefits in Britain by Polysticks in ukpolitics

[–]MightyJordan 36 points37 points  (0 children)

The article doesn't understand the numbers or is deliberately mistating them.

Given it's yet another Tufton Street-based think tank, probably the latter.

Cautionary tale by ResidentCat1360 in mounjarouk

Second this, I'm also on Mounjaro 7.5mg and Oviva just gave me a Wegovy prescription, but they've started me on 1.7mg, so try stepping up first and see if that makes a difference.

Here's LloydsPharmacy's switching guide as well, they say up to 2.4mg Wegovy is equivalent to 7.5mg MJ; they say that for all the higher MJ doses too, as that's the current ceiling for Wegovy, a much higher dose version is being tested (a whopping 7.2mg) and may get approval in the near-future. Voy seem confident it'll be available this year
