Day 1 on Adderall: I don’t know about this stuff. My stomach hurts. I feel twitchy. I don’t like stimulants. Yeah I’m locked in but is it worth the cost? Day 2: God gave me ADHD because He knew I’d be too powerful without it. My enemies tremble at the splintering of His Procrustean bed

Manage addiction services and employ- what someone in HR described as people who have - "been a bit naughty" - am very pro second chances. But: a) a factor there that has changed (drugs) b) a lack of the agrivating factors present here c) am not a tory leader finding myself defending the neo nazi.

To be fair, “Councillors and council elections don’t matter” are a load-bearing part of the “Kemi Badenoch is doing well and the Conservative party’s prospects under her are looking good” thesis.

Nigel Farage insisting "I cannot be bought," after being exposed for secretly trousering £5 million from a crypto billionaire, buying a house with the money, and then immediately launching a lobbying campaign for the crypto industry, is quite something

And they are right not to. Effective and good governments need a prime minister who will adjudicate between departments, sell the government's message, and not appoint someone known to have slept over at the home of a convicted paedophile.
