Not wild personal ones?

muscovyduck is still heroically working his/her way through this thread - on page 252 now. There's still a bit of excitement left but once you get past about page 350, after the unexpected resolution (or was it?) of spineygate, the rest is something of an anticlimax.

Well. You could've told me about this in advance. I'd have been happy (and not going out of my way at all) to help out here
I just got a like from the duck from earlier on the thread, I had a look to see where they were up to:

Not sure if that dossier was ever done but the best place might be a Tumblr with a submit button. There's plenty of blogs there already dedicated to stuff like that but based on models and the 1nt3rn3t f4m0u5

Laurie tweeted NOT ONE SINGLE THING about the Sussex Uni demonstration yesterday. For someone keen on protesting, I would have thought she'd have been all over it.

I'd forgotten about the thread foray into Painful Stings Top Trumps at the end of last year

Was there a decent byline in it for her? Was it 'sexy' in terms of column inches? Was Brighton simply too hard to reach from her London abode?
Am I being overly cynical?

To be fair, her tweets have said she's been not very well over the past few days, so even if she wasn't well enough to visit the demo in person, she could have retweeted a few.
And I would contend that there were ample bylines and sexy column inches available for a number of articles.
Sussex uni isn't cosmopolitan or trendy. Plus "Sussex uni demonstration" takes up valuable characters when you're only limited to 150.

Tis fairly radical as far as unis go though. I think she would have gotten a lot of positive feedback had she bothered her arse about it. Oh well, her loss.

To be fair it's on it's on the outskirts at Falmer not near the trendy centre.how is sussex uni not cosmopilitan? it's in fucking brighton...

She's spoken at the occupation so she is involved!
Laura was just on BBC The Papers, they were discussing DS/Grant Schapp's new 'evidence' that nearly a million ESA claimants had decided to not go for a medical/failed as evidence there were too many bogus fiddlers or over-claimers, Penny went off on one and was very incisive:, pointing out the ruthless nature of the ATOS test and that it was designed to make people fail and that people were too ill to through the whole appalling and brutal process, good for her..

Schapp's "evidence" probably includes ESA claimants like myself who were never called for an ATOS medical, just shunted straight into the WRAG group. I know, I should have appealed.
probably would include Bakunin, who got was waiting for them to get round to assessing him for esa when he moved in with me and we both lived off my student finance for a while.
