The last UK Prime Minister to actually survive a full term was David Cameron, during his coalition with the LibDems (2010-15)... over a decade ago

The last one to serve the full term from election to election after winning a majority in his own right was Tony Blair (2001-05)... over *20* years ago

Just want to acknowledge and appreciate Robyn @ntsonline.bsky.social and the team who contacted my agent to let me know I wasn’t successful on a recent audition. It means so much to get a response and is still rarer than we might like, so I always want to laud positive experiences from the rooftops.

‘It’s sick’: Trump administration uses mascot called ‘Coalie’ to push dirtiest fossil fuel Cartoon lump of coal with giant eyes was spotlighted by US interior secretary in X post saying: ‘Mine, Baby, Mine!’

'We've got a new character to promote fossil fuels - we're calling him Coalie.'

'Coalie? What about Oily and Gassy?'

'Oh, it was his idea.'

I want to laugh at it but sadly it’s true.

Man who bankrupted a casino also runs successful arts centre into ground in less than 3 months. And yet, somewhere in the heart of Trump Cult Land, people still believe he’s a good business man. And not a sex offender thief who stole virtually every cent he’s ever had by grifting and/or intimidation

An online newspaper obituary of Catherine O'Hara at the weekend said 'she left behind two sons' and I think I deserve some kind of a medal for NOT commenting: 'No, it was the same son twice.'

This is terrible. It is also an opportunity for certain journalists to finally speak up with a *fraction* of the courage the people of Minneapolis have shown. It is also instructive that Lemon is Black. Woe/pox etc upon white journalists who don’t freak out about this.

I think at this point the UK has accepted Paddington as the Death Bear, collector of souls. So, I think as a nation we should start smearing marmalade on the eyes of the dead and whisper “fare for the crossing”. It’ll feel weird now but, in three of four generations, no one will question it.

If you look at the killing of Alex Pretti from multiple angles, it looks like murder, but if you look at it from one very specific angle, it also looks like murder so who knows what the truth is? 🤷‍♀️

As a Scot, having seen our football team triumph in a way many of us couldn’t have dared to hope for in recent times, it genuinely hurts me to say this - we must boycott the World Cup. They are murdering people in the streets. Attending feels like acceptance or complicity.

I'd just like to apologise to George Lucas for thinking that his tale of an evil politician manufacturing a trade war so he can achieve absolute power and murder whoever the fuck he wants was a load of absolute bollocks.

Now we're stuck with Emperor fucking Pumpateen.

NEW: NEW: Standards commissioner finds Nigel Farage committed seventeen breaches of MPs code of conduct.

He failed to declare £333,000 in outside interests (more than 3x MPs annual salary)…

Please let the other leaders just corner Trump round the back of the building and fucking leather him. Just beat the tar out of him and then send him stumbling out, bruised, pantsed, showing his flabby, pathetic arse to the world’s media. All bets are off now anyway.

The Prime Minister rises to the global political moment and gives a speech of intelligence, insight and gravity.

Unfortunately for Britain, it's a different Prime Minister.

Old adversaries
Sir, Your obituary (Jan 19) of Mr Justice Blofeld rightly referred to his fine sense of humour. When he first sat in Winchester a barrister called Richard Bond stood up to open the first case. Mr Justice Blofeld began to stroke the white ermine on the sleeve of his High Court judge’s robes as if stroking a cat. He then said with a smile: “We meet at last, Mr Bond.”
