Citalopram, Mirtazapine, Sertraline, Duloxetine, Fluoxetine, Mirtazapine (again). Lots of talking therapy. Not worked. CTT bounce you back to GP after one 1hr initial assessment. Recommend Venlafaxine. Antidepressants haven’t worked for over a decade. What are you meant to do?

No one has really spent anytime thinking about how the multi-barrelled-Norman-conquest-surnamed columnist class are currently coping. And I think that’s very telling. Call yourself compassionate…pah!

How it started…how it’s going…I thought this may serve as a visual metaphor for what is happening to the far right in France but I’m intoxicated and now doubt it’s aptness

4 Green MPs! Aside from Tory big hitters losing their seats, my favourite outcome of election night 💚

Braverman is absolutely nuts and clearly a sociopath. She will be the next Conservative Party leader

Farage is an MP. Reform have won massively. Labour need to raise their game. The far right are the net beneficiaries of centrist politics

Labour lost Chingford and stopped unseating Iain Duncan Smith because they dropped Faiza Shaheen - shame on them. What could’ve been a huge labour majority under Faiza ended up with a split vote and IDS winning again. Fucking idiots

50p Lee wins - labour needs to look long and hard at themselves to work out how someone like that racist, poverty denying bigot can win in a traditionally working class labour stronghold

Ah, is Margaret Hodge the first to say “white working class voters” tonight? Damn, where’s my bingo card!?!
