He can chair a meeting. He can draft a minute. He can lead a team. He can hold a press conference. He can liaise with different offices. He can stay calm in an interview. He has no idea what is or was going on at any time. He is blissfully clueless, a tabula rasa. A reasonable portrait of a PM.

A report on the witch hunt against Francesca Albanese based on a doctored video attributing statements to her she did not make

As Francesca says, she is being targeted because she continues calling out the hypocrisy of the world for not enforcing international law as Israel commits genocide

Great proposal this. Continues to be incredibly funny and incredibly stupid that for years we've *banned* bus and rail operators "colluding" to make their timetables integrate with each other.
Fantastic to see my Mini Switzerland idea covered by the BBC.

It captures so many people’s imaginations because it’s both obvious, simple and yet - from where we are today - unspeakably radical.

Please share!

'Mini Switzerland' plan for Peak District transport network
The idea would see buses arriving before trains pull into stations to improve connectivity.

If children were more politically active they would be quite pissed to be told that their screen time is “the most urgent public health issue” while the largest measles outbreak since the vaccine sweeps their schools because of conspiracies that the adults in their life believed from social media.

The entire UK diplomatic budget is about £1.4 billion a year. That’s pretty much precisely 0.1% of government spending.

BBC World Service is about £0.25 billion (it should be higher), or 0.02%.

These are rounding errors on rounding errors. Double each and public expenditure wouldn’t twitch.

Mad.

This is probably as close to correct as The Guardian are going to publish. Only ommission is that you don't just have to look at political cohorts to see who Starmer has alienated. He's had a knack for pissing off extremely specific groups of people who won't ever forget it.

He had a wife & child, now he doesn’t have a wife. Hopefully the child isn’t given access.

Will women be forced to marry and stay with these fascists, popping out white children every nine months?

One of the most traditional British stories is of Ambrosius Aurelianus Ambrosius and King Arthur leading a multicultural coalition of people who spoke Greek, Latin and Brythonic as well as other languages, *against* the Anglo-Saxons.
