If you're wondering how the jobs market is looking, this morning someone knocked on the office door to hand over his CV. He'd travelled from St Albans to do this and we're not even recruiting.

Well 50% is always a worry.

In case you’re missing some joy from your life, The Traitors Ireland is wonderful.

This all sounds perfectly normal to me. Not sure it’s your thirties but the 2020s. Maybe we’ll all get over it together.

I’m sure Charli XCX has done a good job but in another world Kate Bush did the music for Wuthering Heights.

Somehow they’ve managed to make it a worse day for Sarwar and Streeting than for Starmer. Top politicking.

I’m sure he only wants money. Once it’s clear he’s not getting any he’ll go away.

Say no.

We'd all have emigrated to Argentina by now.

He's going to end up having to resign himself, the bloody fool.

Anas Sarwar's only loyalty is to himself.

The implication was that there is a lot more where that came from!

Man in front of me in the Post Office queue:

"What's the most cash you can pay in in one go?"

"How much have you got?"

"Well I've got 8 grand on me."

Someone's had a successful morning.

Looks like everyone whose embarrassing emails and WhatsApps to Mandelson are about to be published are getting their resignations in promptly.

Watching Irish Traitors as a distraction from McSweeney/Mandelson.

60 super bowls. That’s a whole jumble sale.

Robin Cousins commentating on the ice skating mentions his knee replacements. And Clare Balding clearly has a heavy cold. These Winter Olympics are dangerous.

Americans carrying on like Breezy Johnson is an actual name.

I’m in Clapham, where they’ve sold out of tomato, burrata and almond flake toasties. There could be a riot.

Today’s plan is art, art, theatre. All in South London. I should probably get out of bed.

There will be a second referendum.

I have never been to mainland Europe without hearing Volare. It should be the EU anthem.

I understand the opening ceremony is just two and a half hours of athletes pissing insults about Trump into the snow.

Just saw a post with George Clinton citing the Beatles as his favorite band, which reminded me of this quote he once gave me

The poor dears need another holiday to calm down. They’ve been back for nearly a month now.

There are resignation issues and non-resignation issues.

The political journalists seem to be united in their view that Starmer is finished. It’s only fair that when he doesn’t go, as he obviously won’t, they should. We shouldn’t have to put up with this amateur hysterical nonsense.
