This is too good. It’s like watching someone correct they’re/there/their but turn out to have got it wrong themselves. One of them moments you want to scream WHOS A SMART ARSE NOW EH????

Just pass a new law declaring that we now recognise Kigali as a country and it's a crime to say otherwise.

Therese Coffey is like if they elected the "there are only two colours" person to public office.

She also understands synecdoche perfectly well when using it herself.

Because they're flat out not allowed to be used on the mainland, at least England and Wales. One of Bozza's Genius Ideas as London Mayor was buying three of them for London (costing the taxpayer a quarter of a million) and then having to sell them off after being told that would be illegal.

I did genuinely not know about the Boris bit, idiot supreme. :roflolmao:

Therese is about the most mediocre person to ever make it this far in government. Completely unlovable, too thick to even pretend to finish her university course, and absolutely out of her depth in any personal or professional scenario

What I'm saying is, finally a minister that represents the average Brit

Its funny, you have on one side those who are playing (or think they are) 200 dimensional chess to get into power, like Gove, Mogg, Shapps, Cameron, etc.
And on the other you have Viz caricatures brought to life, and these one seem to get higher placed in the pecking order.

It's entirely DIY health and social care at this stage and i don't think my aunt would be alive if not for my cousin. There are buildings and equipment, but the people working there are spread so thin and so stressed that there is just nothing by way of care anymore

This whole post was shockin, terrible the state things are in. I'm sorry your auntie is in this situation and your cousin is having to do so much of her basic care when there should be enough nurses with enough pay and good enough conditions to be able to provide it.

I think any healthy democracy should allow absolute dogshit ignorant morons to get elected to the commons. Problem is when they end up on the front benches. What was Coffey in charge of briefly? Healthy Living or some ironic thing right?

Yeah its great. I know Paul, the guy who played Jeremy the anchor. It was a right blast to film although lockdown made it very chaotic

apropos of nothing I know, but if you get a chance please tell Paul that he's one of my favourite actors based on his performance in that game, he was loving amazing in it, thank you

We have no compassion and we ask no compassion from you. When our turn comes, we shall not make excuses for the terror.

A new populist left wing party is imho opinion a good idea even if it will be a long haul kind of prospect, but framing it as a regional thing seems very counterproductive. The NIP just fully excludes major potential support bases amongst working class southerners and it's not like 'the north' is really a coherent national identity in the same way Scotland is for example.
