I suppose the fact Germany didn’t get hacked to pieces by Paraguay is the ultimate evidence of how bad they really were…

Disgusted by Badenoch. Very glad at Davey’s response. That look said it all.

Ready for Round 2

We’ve had more fun than at first seemed likely. Well done Curaçao. You did yourselves proud.

So… Josh Simons standing down. Not sure it’s entirely altruistic. Maybe feeling a bit cross that KS in Feb was not grateful enough for past Labour Together support? Him and McSweeney both. Still not sure that Burnham is the answer. Not sure what is.

Is it unfair to be p**ed off at tax dodgers in Dubai now expecting our taxes to bail them out? Yes I mean you Pimlico Plumber, Rio Ferdinand and Isabel Oakeshott. Not prepared to contribute to the country that educated them and looked after them when they were ill, but now coming and expecting.

I enjoyed this

Am I going mad this morning? The reason Trump shouldn’t get the Peace Price is because you don’t nominate would be dictators. What he is doing at home should disqualify him for ever.

Shocking to read but essential it’s out there. Not what can I do to help my country, but how can I rip my country off (and yes, he’s my son and I am so proud of his work)

Today is my very own Liberation Day. After hearing Trevor Phillips utter the phrase: “Has JD Vance got a point when he said…”, I turned off the TVand deleted the series link to both Sunday morning politics shows. Quiet Riot and Lewis Goodall only from now on.

Mandelson. Has he spoken with Starmer before making his announcements? Anyone know?

Very happy with Starmer. He’s treated Trump like parent with an overtired toddler. “It’s very special”. (Look how nicely you have coloured inside the lines) If we have to have a RF, let’s use them. I’ve got no issue using golden carriages as bait in helping the country.

Currently blocking any account that uses misogynistic abuse when commenting. Following last night’s bbcqt lots to do. That woman’s views were vile, but disapproval and disgust can be registered without resorting to misogyny.
