3. betray the public’s trust,
4. and do so without reasonable excuse.

I’m intrigued by point 1. That’s very specific.

Mr. M-W was a government appointed envoy, but was that ‘a public office’?

So this will be interesting. They must be sure they’ve got that test right.

For the avoidance of doubt;
There are 4 tests of Misconduct in Office

To be fair @mrjamesob.bsky.social , I’ve listened to your programme consistently, and to be honest, if your adverts are to be believed, I think Octupus Energy should be running the country.

On this day in 1907, Parliament reopened — two days before the Mud March of 9 February, when more than 3,000 women slogged through rain and mud to demand the vote. No-one got shot.

And looking a twat. Polanski has a brain. Farage’s tissue of flimsy propaganda would fall apart at the slightest scrutiny.

The International Day of Human Fraternity is observed every year on 4 February and focuses on strengthening cultural and religious tolerance, mutual respect, and the idea that humanity is one shared family. It’s a UN‑declared observance.

How do all the wankers who back Farage and the Orange Pantshitter feel about him spitting on the reputation of our armed forces?

I just used to go in the Acca. 😂

Literally only yesterday I was thinking of the time you asked me if I’d rather play for England or shag Miss World. At 13 years old my answer was obvious , but it only occurred to me yesterday that if I’d played for England these days I would have been spoilt for admirers.

That was EXACTLY my memory as soon as it was announced Luke. Bloody hell. Knocked his glasses off. Bloke was talking to his mate at the side of him. Caught him absolutely 100% plumb on the side of his noggin. Chivers was unmoved. 😊

9 years old, garden cane held like a long lance, but attached to bike, down a short 45deg incline, lance hits concrete, snaps, bike and me somersault. The gouge in my shin is still visible and was mistaken by a doctor once for a bullet wound. I'm now 68

The Violence Isn’t Imported. It’s Domestic. Kemi Badenoch’s attempt to blame violence against women on migrants doesn’t just collapse under scrutiny - it actively distracts us from where the harm really happens, and who is actually responsible.

Daily Mail headline £6BN COST OF STARMER'S NEW BID TO SUCK UP TO BRUSSELS

Independent headline 25 November 2025 Brexit costing UK up to £90bn in lost tax revenue a year, new analysis shows Exclusive: Britons also up to £3,700 worse off, leading to calls for the Labour government to improve relations with the EU

It’s exactly this kind of dismal, prejudiced bollox from the Daily Mail that’s got us into the ruinous Brexit mess we’re in. What a moronic response to us rejoining Erasmus and all the benefits that brings. If they’re really worried about cost, they should push to cancel Brexit altogether.
