    Lots to think here about
    If it’s in, let it out
    But overall of course it’s
    Kinda horsist.

    Cheers, Neville. Horses may be figurative of course. I thought I'd come up with a novel corruption of the Shakespeare line but google quickly tells me someone did it before and it's quite ... interesting. I'm just the apprentice!

    A pretty good apprentice I’d say! It’s good stuff... and food for thought. And thanks for giving me hope that I might be a real man as I think tofu’s gross!🤢

    This was never meant to be polemic. The tofu reference is about Suella Braverman's vile stereotyping. Anyone could be saying any line if they think it applies to them.
