The way that guy bootlicks Sue Gray really feeds the fire of those rumours that she's a spook. He sounds terrified of her, and also tacitly supports her being elevated to one of the most powerful positions in the country, assuming Starmer wins the next election.

More seriously, it sounds like he was going for a "because of Tory misrule, the average British family will soon be worse off than the average Polish family, because Poland are growing their economy and Britain is shrinking theirs", and a bunch of bad faith actors have decided to claim this as anti-Polish racism.

Starmer could have made the point better, but the papers worried about 'Romanian hordes' 10 years ago do not give a poo poo about anti-Polonism and are just playing "aha, the real racist"

This reminds me, it seems the sausages you get at the chippy are actually chicken. I always wondered why I've preferred them over higher quality pork sausages and it turns out it's because it's chicken?

It’s not a rumour lol. Nobody took a loving “career break” from the civil service to run a pub in border country in the 1980s. The fact that supposedly serious newspapers are prepared to publish that spin is objectively hilarious

There is a reason why its usually the last one filled and filled by nobodies.
You have to spend the rest of your life looking under your car for bombs, can't go anywhere without security, and you won't get noticed even if you bring peace.
The only one who did a drat was Mo Molam, and when she helped to broker the GFA Tony Blair swooped in to take the glory from her.
Peter loving Mandelson replaced her, probably the only one who did ever want the job as the high from having peace in NI was so strong then.

0.000% of Communism has been built. Evil child-murdering billionaires still rule the world with a shit-eating grin. All he has managed to do is make himself *sad*. It has, however, made him into a very, very smart boy with something like a university degree in Truth. Instead of building Communism, he now builds a precise model of this grotesque, duplicitous world.

The ponies – whose field costs £120 a month to rent – are eating far more hay over a freezing winter. “We’ve been stabling them at night as well, which requires more hay and bedding,” she says.

Rising food prices have required some compromises too. The pets consume £90 worth of food a month, Saunders estimates, and the family have ditched their Waitrose habit. “That’s been vetoed by Charlie. Now we go to Morrisons instead, as it’s far closer,” she says.

I'd take it more seriously if it weren't the worst rags making the most hay out of it. The same papers that spent decades depicting everywhere east of the Elbe as a teeming mass of Slavic criminals and gave pages of space to Nigel Farage and Richard Littlejohn to present "you're not allowed a job these days unless you can speak Polish, and they hold disrespectful parties on Remembrance Day" as 'legitimate concerns' are now depicting Poland as our stalwart Christian PiS voting NATO allies and Starmer as anti-Polish.

Reminds me of when they turned on a penny from "Miliband is a Marxist Shylock who desecrates bacon sandwiches in his multiple kitchens" to "Corbyn is a Holocaust denier and we have always opposed anti-Semitism."

It's amusing seeing these attempts to sting him after following years of the scorpion saying "just a little further to the right and I won't sting you" but it's still very poor faith presentation from the Express and the Mail (:monocle:)

Neil Coyle previous claim to fame was that 4-5 times a week he'd get piss drunk and tweet a bunch of poo poo.
That, or going out campaigning with his infant child strapped to his chest, which was a totally normal thing to do and not at all because he was being shadowed by a friendly journalist.
