Farage has no education post 16. He's a shallow rentagob.
Might as well ask a Fray Bentos pie for a legal opinion.

Badenoch has hitched her caravan to Trump.
I'd no more trust Trump than put my John Thomas in the hands of a lunatic with a pair of scissors.

Caring is the least glamorous most important job there is. Respect to you.

A talented lawyer and a lead footed politician.

His critics won't give him any credit but Starmer is NOT rolling over to have his tummy tickled by Trump.
Unlike Badenoch and Farage.

Badenoch (and Farage) have made clear they would have joined attacks that were unlawful and for which there was no thought-through exit plan.

These are very important, hugely consequential words:
1. The UK government does not believe the US action against Iran is lawful
2. The UK government does not believe the US has a thought-through plan for its actions
My guess is that no-one will hear, but that does not reduce their significance.

Wish the working class kids I taught in Teesside had as much confidence in the stuff they can do as Kemi Badenoch has in stuff she can't.

Imagine Badenoch as PM at times like these.
Governing is slightly more challenging than getting Likes on X.

In the event of a nuclear holocaust all that will remain are cockroaches, Tupperware, Keith Richards and....Joe Rodon.
The bloke is indestructible.

Or tell him you'll bring your daughter to his house for the lesson.

Isabel Oakeshott - a graduate of the Andrew Mountbatten Windsor School of Self Awareness.

Here's an idea. Why not tell your daughter's disabled teacher not to risk coming for a lesson and pay him if he's in need of the money?

Trump put Starmer in an impossible position. It's easy for the rest of us.
FWIW I think he did the best he could in the circumstances to reconcile the competing interests.
No one more than me wants to tell Trump to fuck off but that ain't a realistic option.

Farage is Alf Garnett with a nicer accent. He'll soon be saying Greens don't believe in soap and Muslims live on Kit e Kat.
Farage is a loathsome man.

I'm not used to Leeds United not being a laughing stock and being a model of stability.

One does. She won.

The draft for the Vietnam War was a sophisticated mathematical model.
It must be possible to identify the poor sod who went instead of Trump.
Wonder what happened to him.

That would be a canny sack of Tudor.

Badenoch has made a choice. Either act like a mature leader in the national interest or get in the gutter with her mates on X. She chose the latter.
The Tory party of Whitelaw, Major and Co is no more.

A brilliant initiative. Like much of Labour's work drowned out by other events.

Although Harold Wilson didn't see active service in WW2 Healey, Callaghan and others in the Labour government had.
A factor in Wilson refusing UK participation in Vietnam.

I'm a big fan of SOME of his work. The early stuff, the mid 70s mainly.
Much of the rest leaves me cold..

The throwaway "that's the way it is" at the end of Trump's address to the US is beyond obscene.
The only life he's concerned with is his.

My favourite Bob Dylan album. My favourite album ever.
Perfection.

What is it about the obscenely rich that makes them so ugly?

If the weather forecaster dressed as a farmer on Countryfile is a new policy by the BBC will weather on BBC Breakfast be presented by an unshaven bloke in a dressing gown with Frosties all down the front?

The Fulham crowd are bizarrely relaxed. Not for them the neck vein pulsing stress of home fans at Elland Road.

It's a dilemma watching Spurs. You want them to lose but not for Archie Gray to be responsible.
