Sean Lock had a rare ability to make the most uncomfortable observations sound absolutely hilarious.
The best comedians understand that being funny sometimes means saying what everyone else is too polite to say.
Drew Lynch turns something that could easily make him uncomfortable into the very thing that makes people laugh.
What makes his comedy interesting is the way he exposes the awkwardness surrounding his stutter without allowing it to define him. His jokes about speech therapy and regular therapy reveal how differently people approach the same words depending on the setting.
There is also something clever about his delivery. He doesn't hide the difficulty of speaking; he builds his comedy around it, using timing, honesty, and self-awareness to control the room.
The real strength here is not simply laughing at an unusual situation. It's watching someone take ownership of an experience that could have limited his confidence and turn it into his creative advantage.
Shocker: a Brit cannot wrap his head around the concept of legitimate justified resistance. And in other news, water is wet.
“There is no force on this planet that is more evil than one that commits a genocide.”
Hasan Piker tells Times Radio why he defends Palestinians’ right to armed resistance, arguing that decades of Israeli occupation, apartheid and brutality cannot be separated from the resistance they produce.

How many times have we all been told how we have record levels of employment? Meaning less people than ever are claiming jobseekers payments.
What a shame that this is even where his focus would be when we have such other more important issues. When families are facing Christmas in homelessness, when people cannot afford to heat their homes this winter, when parents are forced to skip meals to feed their children, when people cannot get a hospital bed, or even a GP appointment, when children are being denied a school place or necessary therapies etc.
The list of massive failures of this government is fairly substantial, but people claiming the dole doesn’t really make the cut.

We want the UK Government to launch an inquiry into any British involvement in Israeli operations in Gaza.
This petition is so close to the 100,000 needed to be considered for a debate in Parliament.
Please sign & share - let's get it over the line!

If only there were a more succinct way of saying “died malnourished in prison”…
Israel to release body of Palestinian teen who died malnourished in prison haaretz.com/west-bank/2026-1…
The ref had a few quid on 3-1. That's literally the only explanation for the penalty decision at the end. Bizarre.

Hey @grok, concise no spin.
Right after Diana’s 1997 death, former MI5 officer Annie Machon reported that Diana planned a global humanitarian campaign supporting a specific country and feared a plot against her life because of it.
@grok: 1 Which country?
2 What exact method did she fear would be used against her?
Country and method only.

Far from being a “human shield” my son was acutely aware of dangers posed by Israel’s loose rules of engagement. Wearing a fluorescent jacket, saw children being targeted by an IDF sniper, handed over his camera and rescued two children. He was shot in the head for his humanity.

This device used by a 4 year old (the kids only way of communicating) was stolen from a car on Temple St yesterday.
It's called a Tobii Dynavox Eye Gaze.
The family is distraught and it's of no use to anyone else.
It may have been dumped in the city centre.

In 1987, the debate over Zionism, racism, and Palestinian rights was already decades old. In 1975, the United Nations General Assembly adopted Resolution 3379, declaring Zionism a form of racism and racial discrimination, a resolution that remained in effect until its repeal in

Almost the entire US media and political establishment wants us to ignore this
Presumably Walters won't be at the club next season, which means we'll need to sign two GKs. Madness.
Kacper Chorazka is expected to join @ShamrockRovers! 🔜
The Polish goalkeeper is set to leave @bfcdublin at the end of the season, with Stephen Bradley keen to strengthen his side’s goalkeeping department next year! 🇵🇱🧤
