(Ironically, the people for whom the BBC has got itself into this pickle are not only wholly unappreciative, but actively hostile to it. Possibly a lesson there for our other great 20th century legacy institutions, such as the Labour party...)

"Beyond reproach" is, it must be said, a very odd phrase to use here, but Shabana Mahmood also said that it was "unacceptable" to question the rightness of the supreme court, which is odd when collective responsibility means she should accept the validity of the ECHR.

Fair play to Streeting - it is objectively funny to have a "reset" meeting dedicated to discussing the persecution of trans people under the Conservatives and then to have a "re-reset" meeting literally the day after with Genspect, Bayswater and LGB Alliance, to reassure them that it will continue.

Wouldn't want to question the expert, but my instinct would be not to tell people that you, an MP in the governing party, are not "owning" their cost of living issues.

This is a sort of adorable question (on I assume the French version of "Who Wants to be a Millionaire", which has the absolutely baller name "Douze Coups du Midi"), but also I think a jeu de grattage must be a scratchcard, which is _very gratfiying_.)

Worst possible response to the "there are 10 kinds of people - people who use the binary system, and people who don't" joke.

I don't know much about Arizona politics, but I don't know if Adelita Grijalva would love being compared to Andrew Cuomo in service of this comparison.

Labour continues, it seems, to be ready to alienate its base in pursuit of the approval of people whose entire business model relies on telling their friends at the Guardian, Spectator etc that Labour are not moving far enough to the right fast enough.
