However my village post office is very small indeed, so they might get a bit snowed under!

Give the post office some fudge to smooth over relations.

Spicy rumour going round that the 29 year old nobody , who graduated in 2015 and has done nothing of any note or merit, that Boris has inexplicably put in the House of Lords is actually his secret daughter

She's his former spad. Which means it's basically certain that he hosed her, probably made her have an abortion, and all while Carrie was pregnant, and now he's paying her off for silence.

That would make him the first PM in over a generation to use the Lords as intended, as a cesspit of nepotism rather than a cesspit of business corruption.

Yeah but you only get £330 per day. You'd have to turn up 5 or 6 times a month just to afford London rent! So much work

Turn up at 8, go in for prayers, spend the rest of the day in the subsidised bar/canteen. Take the occasional bribe from gambling/oil/tobacco/healthcare lobbyists. What a life.

Though the lords sat for 152 days in 21/22 so for full attendance only 48k, maybe not worth it when you factor in housing costs. Do they give you a flat?

My wargaming club meets in the village hall of Brightwell cum Sotwell, the village he's just got his new mansion in, so we now live in terror* of him wandering in. Please do not heap moral choices on us as well.
But the place is cheap for a hall for all day in south Oxfordshire, so we're not moving, even if we do bring the average age of the village down by a decade when we meet.

I'd certainly not turn down a peerage if Rishi wants more working class/precariat representation in the Upper Chamber

No he totally saw a boat in the distance. And because it wasn't covered in union jacks and blasting Rule, Britannia from the foghorn it must be a foreign boat, and therefore illegal.

The streets are extended gutters and the gutters are full of blood and when the drains finally scab over, all the vermin will drown. The accumulated filth of all their sex and murder will foam up about their waists and all the whores and politicians will look up and shout 'WHICH PARTY'S MANIFESTO WILL LOOK MOST LIKE THE 2016 VOTE LEAVE AND 2019 TORY OFFER?'...and I'll look down and whisper 'Ours.'

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 Labour party needs to be a grown up party. Let's be sensible about this: the Tories won in 2019. I am not afraid to do the pragmatic thing - adopt Tory policies and prejudices - to win the next election. That is what this Labour party must do to protect the country from this shambolic Tory government.

Welp, my workroom is now full of a double stack of parcels as tall as I am- for the record I’ve not had this many online orders in one go since Christmas 2021.

All orders received thus far will be shipping out in an hour or two. And thank you again, goons. So very much. Ngl, it was seriously looking like I’d have to fold in the near future and now that’s not on the cards at all!

Going by Wikipedia but she really doesn't seem to have done much of note:

Wiki posted:

Owen graduated from the University of York in 2015, gaining a 2:1 in Politics and International Relations. She worked as an intern and parliamentary assistant, before becoming a special adviser in an unknown role under the prime ministers Boris Johnson and Liz Truss. Owen worked 50% for Boris Johnson, and 50% for the Chief Whip and Parliamentary Secretary to the Treasury, Chris Heaton-Harris. At the time, there was much speculation, given her modest achievements, as to what significant contribution to British society was made to justify the ennoblement.

I could imagine him trying, but I'm not sure it would prove the point that he thinks it would. Other than "boats are capable of travelling across bodies of water" and "nobody can be bothered checking the passports of irl troll Nigel Farage and his camera crew of provocateurs, because unfortunately everyone knows he's allowed here."

It's not like you need a licence to operate a boat in open water (you do in the Thames though, I wonder if he got paperwork for that stunt).
