Well .....*Obi-Wan Kenobi voice* hello there!!
It's been a while!!!!! ( my fault I know)...I managed to get more involved with the local Labour Party in my area- and I got myself elected as the branch secretary for my ward. (Whitefoot ward in Lewisham) So I've been busy with that and also doing an OU PPE course.
So that's how my time has been going. How about you guys? What's been going on in your life?.
The first casuality of Brexit appeared to be the price/ availabilty of Marmite, Persil, Flora and other goods owned by dutch brand Unilever, on the aisles of Tesco. At first it seemed that Tesco would have to pull said products on it's shelves as it refused to agree to the price increases demanded by Unilever as a result of the falling £.
Thankfully that all seems to be sorted out now:

So what else happened? Oh yeah. Nick was out campaigning for the Lib-Dem Candidate in the upcoming Witney By election a few days ago and he said this :

Also Paul Mason has been going batshit on Twitter over the past few days, even moreso than usual, and why? Because the S*N managed to record a conversation he had while at conferance this year:
https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/1972471/paul-mason-jeremy-corbyns-celeb-guru-admits-he-wants-to-oust-hapless-lefty-as-he-doesnt-appeal-to-the-ordinary-brits/ The most infuriating about this- ( aside from the fact he's calling everyone a "scab" and inciting twitter lynch mobs on various people) is that he was calling for Anna Turley to be deselected for not showing the appropriate amount of respect to Jeremy Corbyn- and in this recording he essentially admits the rebels are right.
Ah well.....
OH! Don't forget that this Saturday Ed Balls will be performing the Paso Doble on Strictly Come Dancing. I expect GIFS people!!!!
