THEY SAID WHAT?

-

“As humans, we never learn that all this falsehood and fake news, which is what Trump chose to call it, but it’s all right for him to be fake? And tell lies, and false informatio­n” Game Of Thrones star Conleth Hill. “The Independen­t Group is looking increasing­ly as being completely irrelevant. A futile gesture” Shadow chancellor John McDonnell on the new parliament­ary breakaway group of party defectors. “It is the best day of my life. The cream always rises” Aston Villa captain Jack Grealish who scored the winning goal against Birmingham City after being assaulted on the pitch by a spectator. “Comparing any human to an electrical appliance is not acceptable” TV reality star Gemma Collins after a spat with Dancing On Ice judge Jason Gardiner, who made reference to a refrigerat­or. “I think people are slightly exhausted by seeing women being brutalised on screen. Seeing women being violent, the flipside of that is refreshing and oddly empowering” Screenwrit­er Phoebe Waller-Bridge. “Been struggling a lot. Just feeling super disconnect­ed and weird. I always bounce back so I’m not worried just wanted to reach out and ask for your guys to pray for me” Pop singer Justin Bieber. “The trouble with Labour voters, including me, is that we’re very loyal. I’m not going to leave Labour. Corbyn should leave Labour” Labour peer and arts pundit Lord Bragg. “I think I’d be a good prime minister. Theresa May and Jeremy Corbyn are of a bygone era. There’s an oldfashion­edness about them. Their politics are so ‘70s – it’s hate migrants, love miners. They’re both in this terrible situation where they’re very traditiona­l, very stubborn” Labour MP Jess Phillips. “The dogs suffer the physical degenerati­ve decay that inbreeding creates in order to achieve the perfect specimen imposed on the poor participan­ts” Actor Peter Egan is no fan of Crufts. “It’s not that hard to ignore the attention of women these days. It was in the beginning, but not any more” Singer Engelbert Humperdinc­k, now in his 80s. Women used to throw their underwear at him while he was on stage.
