I think this gives too much credit to how badly run the Home Office is. Regardless of political party it is, and will remain, an utter shit show. There's only so much incompetence throwing money at a department can cover up.

If I were still inside your mom I'd make that face too.

Hiiiiooooohhh

Dawn Butler has since deleted the post,

Why am I not surprised it was Dawn Butler 🧐.

The post described the former business secretary as a member of the “black collaborator class”.

Fucking hell. Does she even read what she retweets? Imagine, for a second, Trump doing this. Would we be defending his actions? Jaysus what is she thinking?

“The best thing will be when we get to a point where the colour of your skin is no more remarkable than the colour of your eyes or the colour of your hair,” she told the BBC’s Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg.

I find it interesting that both Sunak and now Badenoch have said similar things about the colour of their skin and the fact they have been leaders of their party not being a big deal. For them they are are British and that's how they identify. Whilst in both cases Labour has congratulated them as being the first Hindu to be PM and now the first Black person to be leader of a party. Don't get me wrong these are important milestones, but I find it fascinating that the people who broke these barriers don't consider it a core identity point and the party that hasn't yet does.

I never saw the article as anything more than a sarcastic opinion piece. They're not calling on the chancellor to reverse the budget. They're not pointing to business opposition. They're not saying anything but haven't an armchair moan in, what looks like to me, a light-hearted opinion piece.

But fair enough if others see it differently. I certainly didn't.

After some twukini

miniminimimni.....twukini!

Ed knows how to write for his audience. He's a shock jock for the modern age.

I feel... and hear me out.... you're taking this opinion piece too seriously. Read it like you'd read a Spectator article (and I very much appreciate you might read the Spectator). These are meant to be tongue in cheek. They're not meant to be taken seriously or over analysed.

Could you imagine being this put out about the guardian opinion pieces?

Honest. I like it.

I thought it was an AI at first 🤖

Are you able to explain what you were trying to joke about?

Easy to sell clicks though.

Go on I'll bite.... Where's the joke here?
