I can see the appeal of Reid - he's a classic showbizzy hard man, familiar from daytime TV/OK! magazine, been in a few trash films about Essex gangsters, sort of people GB News viewers consider a "proper lad".

So Nigel hasn’t been using a “proper British” company for his boot (licking) polish…..and he calls himself a patriot

Nargle calls himself whatever he thinks will go down well with his target audience this week. More heads than a hydra - it's part of being a professional con-artist.

Is there a correlation between anti-vaxers and mixed martial arts people? Joe Rogan is big on the sport as well. Are they versed in the ancient wisdoms of the Orient?

Seems to be along the lines of "a grown adult can't kick the shit out of me, so why should a tiny germ?". Along with a bit of "anyone tries to tell me what to do, I'll smack 'em".

I'm inclined to think reduced reasoning capacity correlates with too many blows to the head.

It's also possible that too many 'roids interfere with quiet reasoned contemplation.
It's remarkable how many of the "sport's influencers" have that look.

Chicken or egg?

I think I'm coming strongly down on the side that Joe Rogan is, despite his repeated claims to be an idiot who knows nothing, a fucking idiot who knows nothing. He's on a path of least resistance, speaking to and for other idiots because it's just easier to ignore smart people than babbling lunatics. I don't think there's anything more coherent in his worldview than "if I press this button money comes out".

Given how much podcasting is pushed as a medium for niche interest and deeper takes on things, and it certainly can be, it does prove that the lowest common denominator is still where the money is

If you mean the look, the resemblence between the head and an egg is uncanny.

Extreme hair loss, inflamed sinuses, sunken eyes, shortened neck, flushed face.
They'd call it early onset gammonia - if it were a medical condition.

Colour me surprised:

Showing that gammon tendency to confuse arithmetic and mathematics.

That's the three time table sorted.

There seems to be a bit of a paradox at the heart of the Reform Party because on one hand they seem to be opposed to listen to experts and following the science and on the other hand Richard Tice gave a speech yesterday in which he argued that we need better leaders. It is very hard to see how you can have a better leader if that leader appears to be opposed to better education, opposed to following the science and opposed to listening to experts.

They want them clever, but not too clever. Quick enough for a pub quiz but too slow too see how they're being fucked.

I must be in a good mood as that’s funny. See also dealing drugs.
Nigel’s suggestion could make Wernham Hogg news.

Now Nigel, what might have been a significant factor that is making this all happen, I wonder?

Nige has turned up with a full jerry can. Your move Rishi, leader of a nation or a party manager scared of a two bit fascist spiv?
