Mister M

Be my guest, things are comparatively dull with them. Any more news on the croissants?

Well er I suppose so, but it could also indicate a complete lack of shame and inability to take personal responsibility. There's been little focus on what she said at the conference: Why Truss thinks Tories would have done better at election if she had stayed as PM and leader Zero self awareness and a complete blind spot. I sincerely hope she feels better soon.

I think just about all of us are against death threats, so why would an MP who is not even linked to the local area have to make a statement about what someone totally different said?

You can't not hear her, she's got a mouth like the Mersey tunnel. Me and a couple of mates sometimes go into the Waterworks, her and her boyfriend are always sat outside on the pavement begging and causing trouble. She's got a real filthy mouth

Is that the one that screams 'Waaaaayneeey' at the top of her lungs by per chance?

From today's Guardian: By the way, there is an awful lot of comment on social media by angry politicians that the Chagos Islands agreement should have gone through parliament. All international treaties have to be ratified by parliament, so there will clearly have to be a debate about it in due course, and it is somewhat disingenuous by those in certain quarters who appear to be trying to suggest that parliament has been bypassed. "Under the provisions of the Constitutional Reform and Governance Act 2010, all treaties (defined as written agreements between states or between states and international organisations which are binding under international law) must be laid in each house by a minister, together with an explanatory memorandum. The Foreign and Commonwealth Office also sends a copy of the treaty and the memorandum to the foreign affairs committee, and to relevant departmental select committees."

They possibly do, I don't know. Mind you, if in 2019 someone had said that Starmer would be in No10 in 5 years time, no-one would've believed you; and Boris Johnson was being spoken about as going on into the 2030s. I would imagine he is yes.

Good for Milliband. I agree with him.

Which morals have a use by date?

That she fuels hatred in society will have been noticed by plenty of people. I was listening to the radio yesterday, and the Tory strategists who were on there were really excited by the prospect of a Badenoch leadership, saying that "Starmer wouldn't know how to deal with a black woman" (not sure where that comes into it but there you go). Having said that members of the public have certainly made their mind up where Badenoch is concerned. The polling group Savanta asked the public to create a word cloud for each of the Tory candidates, and for Badenoch the word they most associated with her is 'arrogant'. The others for her were ‘dangerous’, ‘evil’, ‘nasty’ and ‘useless’.

I've used a delivery service from a Chinese Takeaway based on London Road just 2 or 3 times in the last 25 years. They were very good, and the food was piping hot. It's not something I'd do regularly; but it was really useful when I'd been working late in the evening, and I couldn't be bothered to cook.

^^^State of that^^^ You'd no idea about the free gifts Rosie Duffield accepted; and given her criticism of Starmer, you assumed she'd taken no gift. Then you call me clueless. The chuffin' gall of you! So what if Royal George is not far away from Canterbury? "I don't see anything wrong....blah blah blah".... I'll tell you what Westy, just post what you will accept and what you won't. Based on what you've written before, Tory MPs (particularly those that voted Brexit, and especially if they remained loyal to Boris) get a free pass to anything and everything. No gift is to big, and no behaviour is too egregious. Labour MPs (unless they voted Brexit, or criticise the front bench) should always be judged more harshly. There you are. Better already?

You don't seem to know what you're talking about: Rosie Duffield accepted a £350 ticket and lunch at The Open golf tournament when it was held at Royal St George’s in Sandwich in 2021. Was that necessary to run her election campaign?

Hang on, are you referring to the same Margaret Thatcher who agreed with the Chinese in 1984 on the return of Hong Kong?
