All the King's horses and all the King's men, couldn't put Humpty together again.

Always amuses me that the GOP calls/insults it as 'socialised medcine', not realising that if anyone in the UK stood on a platform of 'let's get rid of the NHS and replace it with a US system because that seems to work'; they'd be carted off to the funny farm.

He ran around like he'd scored the winner in the world Cup final. Turns out he didn't.
Mad end to the game.

Great looking stadium.

Isis. Bob.

He's trying his hardest to do you out of a job!

When they said he lacked emotional intelligence, they weren't joking.

Infantino's predecessor was Sepp Blatter, who was booted out for rampant corruption.

Turns out the new broom is in a league of his own.

Absolutely fascinating.
Are you speaking in Morse Code?

Membership is somewhere between 200 and 300k.

Most affiliated voters (via Unions etc), couldn't be bothered to vote for a role that is neither Deputy PM, cabinet member or party chair.

I did vote. - card carrying member.

What an evocative photo.

So young.

And so cold!

Pretty much you Standard Ranch Stash, an underrated album.

And when it came to your pier, Ken Russell had the right idea.

What was it Tom Lehrer said about the death of satire?

Again I agree,

Turn out was fine.

Rgds. Got to go now 5.30 ko.

Sorry Jessica you have drawn the wrong conclusion.

Turnout among party members:

50 to 70% depending on. Membership numbers.

Comparison:
Every year my pension provider invites me to vote for directors and chair.

Spoiler: I don't.

Couldn't agree more. Quite why Jessica Elgot is spinning that line is beyond me.

Climbed up that last year. Got to the top bang on 4pm . At which point the bell rang, and the punters from around the world put their hands to their ears and in their own language said 'fcuking hell that's loud'.

You're missing 'Aspiring National Treasure'. I was always told to list stuff in threes.

Thank you for correcting that lying Telegraph editor on Newsnight, re Trumps polling.

Thanks Frank, appreciated.

Turns out Mose ( you got 99) Houston was parrolled in 1913. Poor Delia was buried in an unmarked grave.

The Horror.

These people are as mad as fucking hatters.

Very impressive, well done!
Hope you got/get home safe .

Whether Mehdi is British or American is, frankly, the least of your problems.

The wines lists will be bobbins for a start.

I was there!

You're right, there's not much. I was there in 23 and I seem to recall they had a video clip of Patti's acceptance speech.
Overall not impressed.
Vasa museum spectacularly better.

Class.
