At some point, having exhausted all the alternatives, the UK government will have to end this facsimile of effective regulation.

What say you @ofcom.bsky.social ?

The herberts were royally had-over and we've all paid a very high price for this weapons-grade manipulation of The Great British Public.

Time to unpick this mess.

Dear herberts,

enjoying the insecurity the billionaires persuaded you to vote for?

P.S. They're still laughing at you, by the way.

So long as they can make the 'net stupid zero' approach look more expensive to the cash-strapped than the alternative they are on to a vote-winner, despite the obvious hazard.

Ed Miliband is doing a great job as Energy Secretary but delivering cost reduction visible to joe public is essential.

Indeed.

However, looking on the brighter side, 3% swing away from the fully-leaded idiot choice in 12 months says something can get through.

Analysing what IS working & doing more of it must be Labour's mission. Never going to turn the committed herberts but more marginal gains still are feasible.

Wales, eh?

Totally shafted by the Brexit they voted for then, faced with that reality, think: 'You know what, we'll have some more of that'

Never underestimate the stupidity of The Great British Public.

They say you haven't made it in UK politics until you are the subject of a cartoon in The Times.

Larry has definitely made it in this one:

Steel beams don't have to melt to lose structural rigidity. Jet fuel in open air burns at c.1000 deg. C. rising to c. 2000 deg. C. in ideal conditions whilst structural steel starts to soften at 425 and loses most of its strength by 600 deg. C. so it is entirely consistent with what was seen on 9/11

My union sympathies would say that the only way to deal with this preposterous situation is to all boycott the briefings until sanity returns.

One out - all out.

Which is why we need to ignore the herbert hive mind and rejoin the EU as soon as they'll have us back.

We voted leave and it was a huge mistake unless you were going to benefit from 'oligarchy controlled deregulated right-wing state governance'

Hint: herberts don't benefit from that.

Ever.

Dear herberts,

the US healthcare industry, that Garage and his goons want for the UK, bankrupted this hugely successful Hollywood star.

Are you feeling lucky? Well, are you?

In my case, telling my RE teacher 'It's all bollox' got me a detention every week.

Which was very useful as I used the time to teach myself electronics and based my whole career on it.

One for a former Head of DPP to be all over, I'd wager.

Irrelevant from which political party, plotting the downfall of a serving Prime Minister involving foreign nationals?

I think there's a word for that, don't you think?

Even St Swithin only mandated 40 consecutive days of rain if it had the temerity to rain on his day.

Now on Day 42 and counting.

Never mind the fact that the farmers/fisherfolk/manufacturers/exporters/all the rest of us have been economically & culturally shafted because the oligarchs money-making opportunities have been saved.

So that's all right then - Brexit was a success for those who organised it for their own benefit.
