Constantly changing leaders worked wonders for the Tories in their last 9 years in Government, after all...

My company replaced internal phones with Teams calling. So not everywhere has a choice.

TBH I lost trust in their judgement at the "Corbyn was a good option" line. He was always a terrible, terrible choice to have made and an even worse one to have stuck with.

Also they seem quite lax about dropping lit cigarettes while walking round oil refineries. It's carelessness really.

Oh no, it would be awful if the Government knew my name, age, address, date of birth, employment status...

Jona Lewie's Stop The Cavalry references Christmas directly but wasn't released as a Christmas song

Nice try, Dr Who convention organising guy (it's 100% a guy, BTW). But we're still not coming to your nerd convention. Nerd.

Dude's never heard of the horizontal line, which is weird as "horizontal" has two O's in it so you'd think they'd be all over it

Also it's just so utterly lazy. Lefties journalism by numbers. Starmer has his faults, but he's nowhere near as awful as Farage, yet many would have you believe the two are essentially the same. It's just drivel.

I'm not yet convinced this whole thing hasn't been some sort of performance art piece. It's SO on the nose for how terribly a new left wing party could be setup.

Given the state of our weather in recent years, plus the retail landscape we all live in, these days (unlike C. S. Lewis warned) it’s always Christmas but never winter
