Just so it’s contained in one place so we don’t have to read it in every other thread. Cheers.

I don't want to be nasty but Sid, Oiram, Thor, Dohnut and Perpetually Wrong need to reduce their word count drastically. It is boring as f***. A bit of my soul dies every time I see their posts.

We can do that if you do the same. You can have a group of like minded snowflakes where you talk about each other’s mental health, give out virtual hugs if someone calls you a name, wear different colours for whatever oppressed group you are standing with that day and generally behave like a bunch of wet lettuces. Who knows, if it really takes off you might meet the future Mrs Wumble. A humble Wumble.

Judging by a few war stories and certain cultural references, I have him in his early 50s. Similar age group to yourself.

I actually got a job in one as a kid. That was an eye opener. It was a work of art seeing them cook the burgers with a paint scraper. They used real onions then. There were American Style Franchise Burger Bars cropping up also in 70’s. Hunger Cure was one. They use to put the raw burgers on a conveyor belt and it went GH tough s flame grill slowly whilst cook sorted the bun , sauces and salads. There was one near The Lion
And Key in the one way bit of High Road , think called ‘Starship’ run by English people who got the idea after a holiday in the States. Used to open late after pubs shut.

MSM Messenger could be a good cross party podcast where Darren Grimes, Emily Hewertson, Owen Jones, and Kerry Anne Mendoza discuss the lies in each media and donations could go towards, I guess, defunding the BBC? Not thought it through yet. They could then point you towards Breitbart and The Canary as the only trustworthy sources.

Had many a cow pat from the Starship after the pubs closed, big old burger in a floured bap.
Another faux Wimpey was the "Minuet" in the row of shops near Leyton Green bus garage.

Yes I remember that next to the old Midland Bank, an honest imitation Wimpy. Burgers were almost as good. Was full of Bus Drivers snd Conductors from the garage opposite. The Minuet is still there as a cafe but different name I think.

What if I substitute in Tom Harwood and Toff from All Those TV Shows and get Claire Fox (Baroness Fox!) to host? I'm sure we can get you on board. We can change its name to 'That Won't Win Back The Red Wall!'
