I've seen off Cameron, May, Johnson, Truss and Sunak and I'm still going strong.
Only two Prime Ministers have ever done longer stints here: William Pitt the Younger and Sir Robert Walpole.
Bill and Bob - I'm coming for you...

“It could take years to restore Brexit losses”
Especially if Farage comes along and tears up the ‘reset’ as he threatens.
Honest to god.. it’s such a tedious, idiotic, resource-sapping mess. There’s really nothing patriotic about it. Prejudice costs such a lot.

A fascinating thread on the transformation of pulp weird tales published in the 1920s into the scriptures of Atlantean cults and conspiracy theorists
One of the reasons I've been quiet recently is I've been supplying care to my disabled bf, but the other main reason is that I'm deep in a new book about the occult Atlantis, and I've been rediscovering the joys of proper research. I want to share some gems here. 1/
