2008: Epstein is convicted of procuring a minor for prostitution
2018: Despite that conviction, [files indicate] he was invited by Rowling’s team - along with a guest of his choosing - to the Broadway opening of Harry Potter and the private after-party
Protecting women and children, is it?

Used to be the best team in both boxes with a midfield which facilitated that. Now we have all the sparkly midfielders but are useless at both ends.

they have enormous governing majorities, in an extremely centralized state, for three and a half more years
it's absolutely bonkers that they don't seem particularly interested in implementing policies which can lead to greater mass affluence and greater popularity for the government

instead of lashing out at "coups" and "plots" by Burnham, Streeting etc, have Team Starmer considered just... being less shit at governing?

Today's announcement is the opposite of what it says it is. It's the formal cancellation of the high speed line across the Pennines.
What's left - additional TRU scope - is a good idea but should be delivered as a business as usual enhancement in 2027, not some far off fanfaron.

Shelley was just looking for a notebook and between us we have about twenty with the first page filled, and the first only, intending to finally be organised on a topic.
Is undiagnosed ADHD discovering that you set up email rules in Outlook a few months ago to be more organised, immediately forgetting, and so have not been responding to some important requests for quite some time?

hey did you know I have a podcast about reading british Sonic comics in the 90s?
Well not any more, because it's the MILLENNIUM EPISODE. It usually comes out on Fridays but I've brought it out NOW. You will hear young me at a party as a thousand years tick away and another hove in.

I need any Labour partisans to remember that I simply will never forgive a man who stood up as Prime Minister and said Nigel Farage was right and that immigration had caused incalculable damage to British society.
This latest shitshow is another reminder why Starmer needs to go - not in May but now. He is not willing or capable of playing the role of PM. He is vindicating the far-right and demoralising the left. He should be removed for being bad for the country not merely losing Labour elections
