Trampled underfoot by the rise of the right

What a great way to wake up.

Firstly, my alarm clock failed so no yoga for me this morning.

Secondly, Nigel Farage has publicly given up alcohol for January, and either he or the Sun newspaper[*] has invited people to dob him in if they see him drinking a pint. Using the hashtag #pintwatch, which is currently trending on Twitter. Since I tweet as Pintwatch, this does not make me happy :(

[*] I'm not sure, as I'd have to sign up to the Sun website to read the story.

I think you should make it clear that @pintwatch in no way endorses UKIP or Farage. However, if people want to learn how to dance with swords that's the place to be.

I wondered about that. To be honest, though, I think I'd rather not put my head above the parapet by having my username and the hash tag in the same tweet.

And if I don't include the hash tag, it'll just get read by my friends, and I hope they already know I don't endorse Farage :)
