Hartlepool has gone and made me so proud tonight

I'd like to say they deserve all they get, but coming from a family of socialists with long time friends who are too, I just feel very angry and also complete sadness

You make light of it but I'm thoroughly ashamed to be a Teessider right now having watched that. I knew things were bad but that just floored me. Then I watched that new leaked Pilger doc about the NHS and bawled my eyes out like a little girl. This hasn't been a great day for me. I try to remain optimistic but days like this just make me wonder what the point of it all is. Then I see Angela bossing it on that junior gestapo version of QT and think that there's maybe hope after all. I should probably just clarify that I was both crying and wanking as I typed this.

No foreign person seems available to tidy up this edit glitch, so you'll have to do with me.  I'm almost foreign and certainly a migrant.  Glad to help.

Richard Tice is poisonous.

The town did once vote for H'Angus the Monkey, and his socialist policy on bananas.

If it only took 200 years for them to make peace with our simian cousins (and elect one as mayor), then there's hope yet.

I wouldn't feel ashamed my friend, their guilt isn't your guilt.  These bastards are everywhere.  It's a societal problem, not a Teesside one.

I watched that report and it didn't lead me to think all people from Hartlepool are racist cunts. It did make me think all people in the Brexit Party are racist cunts, but I've thought that for as long as that party's existed.

Well just be aware its everywhere, not just Teeside. So no reason to feel ashamed.
