Into the Clegg-averse

It's the free one!

Former Lib Dem leader Nick Clegg now works for Facebook to the tune of eight figures. He has some opinions about Facebook’s policy decisions. As you can guess, they sound like thoughts from a man who’s been hit in the head really hard–which is why Riley, Milo, and Alice analyze a recent Meta appearance in which his Nintendo Wii-looking avatar complains about his headset a lot, among other things. We also talk about the recent byelection in North Shropshire. Hope you enjoy!

Nick Clegg is like Captain Darling from Blackadder, twitches at the sound of his own name 😂

Looking forward to when the UK has three Prime Ministers, three Pretender/Anti-Prime Ministers, and the restoration of the House of Stuart all within the same week.

So Nick Clegg is the representative for a capitalist hell-future in which everyone is connected but not physically and where we can see people from anywhere in the world but never touch them, after his time as leader of the party of 'what if labour but even more wet'? Not sure if I'm anticipating a later bit, but weigh in folks, is the metaverse just the lib dem version of the force?

"The boy who's been so bullied at school, they avoid everyone instinctively" Ah yes, I remember those times.
