Haha! No idea! But congratulations!

Are the stills from the programme?

Comported not comforted.

I wonder how much was an attempt to please the Queen and give her favourite a proper job. He comforted himself with outrageous arrogance. It shouldn't have happened.

Just me being picky!

It's good. But not PMQs.

It really is pretty brain-dead kind of stuff. Fancy putting the livelihoods and lives of people on the line for an unattainable ideal.

I did get that....!

Eh? Then you'd get loads of eggs! They don't lay on demand!

Yesterday this blog sought to make sense of the decision to drop the Chinese Spying prosecutions on the information then available, and averred that both the positions of the government and the Crown Prosecution Service did not make sense. Now the government has published three witness statements, the picture now changes. The government’s position now makes sense, and the CPS looks as if it made at least one serious mistake and possibly another.

NEW

What the Chinese spying case witness statements reveal

The Crown Prosecution Service appears to have made at least one serious error, while the government's position now makes sense

By me

Other opinions seem to be very much available!

Whereas when I worked in one (Waterstones, trading as Dillons) you were paid until closing time, but had to keep on serving customers after that. All adds up to a lot of free work and a not very good view of your employer. Rarely buy stuff there now.

Yep. Lots of numbers all in my head.

Won't house prices just go up?

Thinking?!

It amuses me that in one Doctor Who book I have it contains a really long essay dating the story from trying to make it fit other earth bound stories. Their conclusion was something like 2050. And there it was all the time. A differently timed tele-snap would have saved them all the bother!

Thank you. What an error.

What happened?

Please join me in congratulating Woman on her appointment

Article reads: Woman named as Archbishop of Canterbury in historic first The 63-year-old archbishop-designate is married to Eamonn Mullally, with whom she has two children. Originally from Woking in Surrey, she was the UK's chief nursing officer from 1999 to 2004.

This article manages to name her husband before it names… her.

Sounds like a great gig to me...

Intelligent, thoughtful article as ever. Refreshing to read some sense. People have got used to the 1922 committee shenanigans under the Tories and have forgotten how much harder it is to depose a Labour PM.

You clearly didn't read what I said. Disengaging with you now.

The same as if the Tories were in power still. It is a great disappointment to me that there is regression towards trans rights in this country right now. And the arguments are so facile. I have lost all respect for Wes Streeting for eg.

It is actually better, not worse, for most of your list. And migrants and trans is probably the same. (Which is disappointing, I agree.)

But Truss only did 49 days! Not comparable. Starmer has already beaten two post war PMs for length of tenure. And not long before he beats Sunak's too.

You think the above were better served by Truss et al?!!

Giving up on reality. I won't ever give up my membership

Haha. I get your point, but the Corbyn fan club isn't capable of decent behaviour.

Yep. Corbyn never got anywhere near recognising Palestine, because he is a narcissistic idiot who never achieved power. Starmer did achieve power and has noe recognised Palestine. What is wrong with you???!!!!!!
