No CommentsBack in July 2023, I wrote an exposé of the deeply dodgy fundraising platform - beloved of "alternative" celebrity multi-millionaires such as Andrew Bridgen and Laurence Fox - Democracy 3.0. What I uncovered in this report (a lot of which was paraphrased the subsequent month, by investigative journalists at OpenDemocracy) was essentially that Democracy 3.0 […]

No CommentsIt's one of the most momentous, eagerly anticipated, and politically significant prison liberations ever, right up there with Nelson Mandela, Terry Waite, and Tommy Ten Names. And today, it finally happened: Lucy Connolly, the social media shitposting, totemic political titan of our times, has been released. And how was this great heroine and persecuted people's […]

No CommentsIf I asked you to describe the typical audience for a purple-haired, pint-swilling, anime AI, you'd probably imagine a coven of far-left communists, replete with Pfizer face masks, trans tattoos, and pistachio pronouns (vegan, you see...). So it's quite an improbable twist of fate to discover that this character has, in fact, become the latest […]

No CommentsI'm not being rude here, or making unkind jibes about anybody's festive overindulgences: that's really the name of the venue where three of our favourite con artists - two fake "convicts" and one common or garden conman - recently met for a jolly old knees-up. Beaming over their beers, we have three of the most […]

No CommentsOne of the great things about being a conspiracy theorist is that we need feel no guilt at all about not sticking to our New Year's resolutions, and indeed can feel quite smug about it, since - as all the cool conspiracy kids know - this isn't the real New Year. Celebrating New Year on […]

No CommentsSomeone messaged me the other day to let me know that the now-legendary (once languishing) Lucy Connolly had begun a Substack (thanks J!). Intrigued, I clicked on the link... only to find I had a pre-emptive block! I've never made any direct attempts at communication with Ms Connolly, so I find the block to be […]

No CommentsApart from, “I like your hat, is it real fur, where did you get it?” (thanks, no, it was a present), the question I am most frequently asked remains the one in the title… It’s usually put to me online, so I can’t completely accurately discern tone, but I imagine a mocking, scoffing one, followed […]

No CommentsIt is generally regarded as a universal truth that, when one is a child, to spend too much time watching TV is Very Bad, but to spend a lot of time reading books is Very Good. It is therefore the case that many parents, who will scrutinise and carefully control the content their children watch […]

No CommentsWhen I was at school, my French teacher, Mrs. Mealor, had a bit of a problem with controlling the class, as seems to be an occupational hazard for the tutelage of the Gallic dialect (maybe it's the melodic, lyrical nature of the language, as it seems German teachers have no such problems...). When various threats […]

No CommentsApart from being splendid Scrabble words (I often have a game open in the background, and yes, I'm afraid I do play the computer, a devious and duplicitous rival who knows far more improbable words beginning with Q than I do), these terms would seem to accurately encapsulate what's currently going on in conspiracy HQ...
