Allowing The Spectator to be published in a supposedly civilised society is like a hairshirt to the body politic. We don’t HAVE to hurt ourselves in this way by disseminating this poisonous trash, we can just axe the fucking thing.

Heads up for hacks that Metro are quite likely to stop paying for "Why this thing I personally don't like shouldn't be happening" articles quite soon.

Just reported the social media profile of a man I once described as the equal of Chaplin – for racial hatred.

I try to fight my prejudices, but I have to admit I can't imagine any logical way I could ever trust the judgement of anyone who has ever listened to The Fall. We've only got so much time on this planet.
