She’s still thinking about the carpet monster.

She's being a pretty standard dog, to be fair. Especially given that she's not the most laid-back canine. Hoovers and their noise are very scary when you've no idea why they are there, invading your space and making threatening sounds.
Don't worry, Sophie - we've got your back 😘

You'll be judged by your words. Frankly, I'm not impressed.

Excellent point.

What gets me is the endless briefing, often speculation. I want to hear what Mahmood is actually proposing when she stands up in the House. And then, after the arguments and parliamentary ping-pong, what actually results. I don't believe everything I read on SM or the rags.

No. I was responding to Sam’s comment.

I wouldn’t rely on Sun as a source. Let’s wait to hear her announcement today.
