Gah! I went with the same soundbite but he is pathetically deserving.

You sure you want to nail your colours to the same mast as Kemi Badenoch on this?

Putting your fingers in your ears and going ‘la la laaaa’ surprisingly unsatisfactory.

When I said 'Kemi Badenoch is so partisan, under her the Tories would oppose puppies and kittens if Labour said something nice about them', I didn't mean it literally.

Kemi Badenoch has made a category error when interpreting ‘opposition’, assuming it must apply to every syllable uttered by Keir Starmer.

I will never forget, as a city kid but with relatives in rural Hampshire, a large herd of cows moving purposefully down such a lane towards us (and only us!). My brother and I were actually on our way to help move them from shed to field but the cows jumped the gun. The memory endures decades on.

Inject this Jeremy Bowen piece straight into Kemi Badenoch’s veins. Nigel Farage so clearly frit it’s not worth him even rolling his sleeve up. #r4today

Given Trump's illegal war that is devastating the Middle East and pushing up energy bills, Keir Starmer should advise the King to call off April’s state visit to the US.

A state visit should not be given to someone who repeatedly insults and damages our country.

When I first started out as a journalist I thought it paid to have a background in US history when covering America. Then I thought it would probably be better to be a constitutional lawyer with expertise in jurisprudence. Now I think it would be useful to be a psychiatrist.
