    It's an odd situation but clearly other issues, otherwise isn't it just the father fucked the son's wife and made her pregnant without actually fucking her!

    Sounds like the worst of all worlds. Unless she's not much of a looker. Presumably if she was hot, he would have insisted on a draught injection?

    Surprised the local council got involved. Seems like a typical family situation for the Dingles.

    To the backdrop of the latest irrelevant distraction new powers for teachers to search for mobile phones, I couldn't help but marvel at the contribution of a listener on partridge (I happened to be checking it was still working). Their assertion that "back before mobile phones were invented, we didn't need them in the classroom" was, I thought, full on self-absorbed boomer idiocy.

    Someone the other day was asserting, amongst other things that we didn't have homophobia back in the 50s and 60s.

    I have to assume that these people are just on the wind up otherwise, frankly, I'd just give up.

    I mean, homosexuality was illegal until 1967...

    I didn't listen long enough to establish if their argument was that homophobia couldn't be a thing because essentially the law of the land was homophobic and legalising unleashed the wokeness of today. It's the only way I could (if forced) try and argue a case.

    You mean, "it was all ok when they kept themselves to themselves"? Not convinced Alan Turing (as an obvious high-profile case) would see it that way.

    The history of persecution of homosexuality by the security services is an almost perfect metaphor for this country....given that many of the persecuting security officers were in the gays themselves.

    Given that they largely came from privileged Oxbridge backgrounds it was presumably okay for the likes of them.

    I thought it recently became widely accepted that homosexuality was in fact invented by Sir Isaac Newton in 1665 when he took a glass prism and held it up to a beam of sunlight streaming through the window.

    Then just when everyone had forgotton all about it, Pink Floyd rediscovered it in 1973 and then again in 2023 and I for one was OUTRAGED.

    Grant Shapps, or whatever he calls himself, insisted that Trident remains "effective, dependable, and formidable.". Despite repeatedly failing to work.

    Not the biggest lie told by a minister this week, nor any week, for a number of years.

    In other news. Dead dogs don't care how old humans pretend that they were.

    Most humans don't either.

    Thank you for sharing.

    As the Cotgrave swingers collective once famously etched in a plaque above your Dad's front door.

    Sam Coates live on Sky asked Galloway about reports of threats and intimidation during his campaign. Obviously he gets aggressive and his supporters start shouting and intimidating the reporter.

    Troubling times.
