Shame. He’s a good man. We’ve been told that all our foreign and domestic issues can be solved within two years, after decades of neglect and underinvestment. No one is ever going to be given a chance to […]

That’s probably boosted Starmer’s chances of clinging on, to be fair.

I had a brilliant idea in the long slow queue for the Gents before the show. Introducing an ‘Prostate Enlarged 1cm or Less’ aisle would massively improve the flow. So to speak.
