George Galloway shouting at people for 5 minutes straight with outright lies.

Labour should just respond with “she’s safe as houses”

Speaking of which: No, it's not a spoof.

Plus, it's annoyed all the right people who have brought this clip back up to get themselves upset about again:

That's not even funny, it's downright ****ing offensive.

"AND THEN STARMER UNFOLLOWED ME ON TWITTER WHICH WAS THE FIRST CLUE HE'S DANGEROUS OR WHATEVER"

Can we talk about Labour’s candidate for Clacton’s style? I can’t decide if he looks dapper as **** or like an 80s Doctor Who cosplay. If someone could get him an umbrella with a question mark shaped handle that would be lovely.

It’s happening.

Next week: Ed Davey comes third in nobbly knees competition.

Every Labour leader has been subject to the same thing. Miliband’s dead dad was attacked for months to the point where a reporter ambushed a private family event in a hospital. He was eventually undone by a bacon sandwich. They’ve tried the same with Starmer with Jimmy Savile and beergate, but haven’t made any of them stick because they turned out to not be true. Corbyn was an open goal. A career’s worth of appalling judgement of character and events he’d been attending. A terrible understanding of foreign affairs and a history of criticising his open party. He was a constant own goal. The political equivalent of Danny Ward. No, it wasn’t. The manifesto pledged to nationalise rail, mail, water and energy but didn’t give any idea of how much it would cost or how they would pay for it. Just that they’d “compensate at a fair rate”. That’s bad enough. Days after the manifest was published Corbyn announced plans to compensate WASPI women for £58bn but without any information about where it would come from. Everyone regards his manifesto as fantasy politics because it made bold plans of nationalising everything, even giving everyone free broadband, without explaining the funding behind it. To then be making unfunded promises on top of that is pathetic and unforgivable.

I never said they were despised in 2017. But they weren't exactly liked, were they? The national party polls were a bad enough indicator of his performance with the public. Check his leadership poll ratings vs May - his nearest rating to her was -9%. His worst was MINUS THIRTY NINE PERCENT. He just wasn't liked by the electorate, and that was before the regular scandals of his own making. He was shit.

Important context - May got 42% in 2017 whereas Hague got 31% in 2001. It's a bit like celebrating our higher xG than our opponents despite losing 4-1. His polling had been utterly dreadful for his entire 'leadership' - his best - and ONLY good - rating against May was a 2% lead in the days running up the election, in which she had proposed a DEMENTIA TAX. Trying to put any sort of positive spin on the 2017 election is absolutely absurd.

Unfortunately a bit before my time to remember his loan here, but I certainly remember seeing him play for Everton. Awful news, especially hearing of Sarkic from Millwall/Montenegro passing away today too. Horrible day for football.

Scotland's night just went from bad to haha

From the author of “Whipser it quietly… Rishi Sunak is staging a stunning comeback” comes a new classic:

That goal should have stood.

Has someone given him a Hitler moustache or do I need to clean my laptop screen?

Electoral Calculus: https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/fcgi-bin/calcwork23.py?seat=Harborough, Oadby and Wigston Gives Labour a 68% chance of winning and the Tories 32%; the others 0% each. Your vote is yours to make for your own reasons - judging by these projections you should be absolutely safe to vote for whoever you want in the safe knowledge it won't risk the Tories winning in this seat and nationally. At the end of the day it's between you and the ballot box who you vote for, don't let anyone shame you or prevent you from voting how with your own conscience.

That bit at the end

Let me know when you see it.

Labour manifesto day. This best not be shit. They don’t need a worldie. Just a Vardy tap in.

Anyone know where I can get a wall chart?
