Rishi Sunak served as PM for 1 year and 254 days. As of today Keir Starmer has been PM for 1 year and 216 days - can Keir survive longer in office than Rishi or will Big Ange have something to say about that? Something along the lines of "Here's the tax I owe you!"

UK politics such fun to watch!

I’ve kicked off 2026 by doing my favourite thing, I’ve bought an old car! The Merc will be off the road for a week or so and we really can’t deal with having just one car so welcome to the family car sixty-something! Seriously I’ve lost count, I need to do a spreadsheet of them all.
