Check my bank balance today to find a sum of 285 quid with the reference CMA text refund.
A quick google tells me it’s compensation from Nationwide for not texting me an alert to tell me that I’m about to get an unauthorised overdraft fee.
Happy days.

Almost a win at Gammon Bingo.
- Harking back to WW2 ✅
- Reference to feminazis ✅
- Characterising anyone living in the 21st Century as a “snowflake” ✅
- Coming from the birthplace of Thatcher ✅

But no explicit reference to “the PC brigade”? Disappointing grip of the full set of received ideas. Back to your Daily Mail revision guide you go.

I think there is a genuine problem with snowflakes, there's always some cunt looking for a reason to be offended, but that guy is basically whining that it's no longer acceptable to harass random women in the streets.

Is it a genuine problem, or a perceived one majorly bigged up by the media to provoke outrage.

As an example, my missus used to work for the CAB and they used to get a lot of missives about not putting Christmas decs up etc as it might cause offence, however without exception all of her non Christian colleagues and clients thought it was ridiculous that they didn't have the decorations up and thought the British were frankly a bit thick not to engage with other festivals and religions as it would give more chances to celebrate and maybe have time off work.

Its like the stream of perceived poppy bollocks that social media was full of a few weeks back. .

Should concentrate on the real good stuff.

That Muslim woman defending a Jewish family from being abused on the Tube by some bible bashing bigot.

A whole carriage full of other people who just looked the other way.

I heard her interviewed on the radio yesterday and she was at pains to point out that that wasn't entirely true (that no-one helped), several other people intervened to help her out but it wasn't filmed because one of the people who helped her out was the bloke who had been filming up till that point

That'll be worth a few votes now. Kind of backfired.

What kind of person changes their voting intentions in this kind of thing?

Should they be allowed the vote??!!
