What bit of this is meant to be surprising or a problem? It’s her jobSometime she writes about politics

she does a podcast now with Richard Osman...heard her talking about how she is "obsessed" with clickbait stats and how she writes accordingly to get maximum clicks... matches up
theres different ways to do a job...bit like a politician really, with conviction or playing to the gallery.... on the whole her coloumns dont add anything (but clicks)...she takes pot shots at easy rightwing targets but when she rarely sticks her neck out we get stuff like Corbyn is a dangerous populist in the same ball park as Farage....her one article related to the ethnic cleansing in Palestine is about Jews feeling safe. At least people like George Monbiot do research and add perspective and insightWhat bit of this is meant to be surprising or a problem? It’s her job
I expect her Twitter account is full of replies from horny centrist dads.I think that’s her role though. She’s doing the humorous cunt-kickings while others on the paper do the more scientific takes. Got to have a bit of light and dark. She seems to be one of the most popular columns on the site so it’s clearly adding something for people. Humour is a great way to spread a message.
absolutely. I'd be there if I hadn't binned off Twitter ;-)I expect her Twitter account is full of replies from horny centrist dads.

Doesn’t look like a Guardian problem to me.
Pyrrhic victory. He 'won' on the political procedure front (which no-one apart from politicians gives a fuck about) but made himself and his party look like complete politicking cunts to everyone else. Yay.The guardians "analysis" of the procedural coup yesterday concludes that

Aye, and there may yet be repercussions....and it's not like the slaughter is about to stopPyrrhic victory. He 'won' on the political procedure front (which no-one apart from politicians gives a fuck about) but made himself and his party look like complete politicking cunts to everyone else. Yay.
Yeah, I'm sure that Netanyahu regime will be delighted with Parliament's failure to deliver a unified call for ceasefire; they'll probably regard it as one of many green-lights they'll perceive for flattening Rafah.Aye, and there may yet be repercussions....and it's not like the slaughter is about to stop
a real piss-take of a column from the piss-taker general
I’ve wasted 7,300 hours lazing in bed in the morning. Why can’t I just get up?
For 40 years, I’ve spent half an hour lying around doing nothing each day after waking up. It’s scandalous behaviour that must be stopped, writes Adrian Chileswww.theguardian.com
Well it’s obviously using that phrase to specifically differentiate it from the deaths from bombs/guns. Not hard to understand.
