Comedy Gold today. Was it the last one?

Whatever gave you that impression :smile: As has been pointed out elsewhere, in addition he's apologised -- will that be sufficient?

"Stop talking, Prime Minister" "Sit down, Prime Minister" Top play, Mr Speaker. Signs that the tide is finally turning, and the entitled one is finally being challenged.

Agreed. He's so shifty. It's transparent whenever he knows he's being exposed, he wears it so well.

You know when a Tory PM -- particularly one as inept and entitled as this one -- resorts to "talking the country down" tropes, he's keenly aware that he doesn't have a response to the question. As I indicated to you in another thread, it's just a question of when the public decides they want to...

As you point out, the desks, etc issue is by no means insurmountable. The bigger problem, however, is getting the staff and students to the right place at the right time. Given the former teach different cohorts in a day, they'll be hopping from one site to another, or several sites in the...

You're right, but you're just reinforcing what Garry Nelson's teacher says

Change the record. Union membership has halved over the last few decades. Strike days lost has subsided massively. Yet you still want to make a fool of yourself posting comments like this.

I'm still struggling. My impression was that the FTPA set parliaments at 5 years, and a quick search indicates this is the case, so it'd be Dec 2024 according to this criteria at least. Doing the search did reveal the below, however, which suggests that FTPA won't last this parliament provided...

See ^, more nuance.

Individual PMQs, you're quite right, but there is a slow, inexorable accumulation that turns itself into its own narrative. We're nowhere near that yet, although there is a heightened attention on things now for obvious reasons. As many have pointed out, a sparse parliament and our grim setting...

Hunt has been excellent throughout CV19, and it is yet another illustration of the effectiveness of Parliamentary Select Committees. There's a lot wrong with our democracy, but PSCs have been a welcome addition.

F&*^ me. I thought I liked taxes, but I've never heard a better reason for raising taxes.

Ha. I've had an error message already. I'm going to try it out anyway. Edit: that was dreadful

Johnson has been following through A LOT of late

Triggaaar is going to have to patiently explain to me how to respond directly to quotes but, in the absence of that, I'm referring to each emboldened passage in turn: -- agreed, and I don't see Labour winning many seats in Scotland. The only other scenario is the Greens and Lib Dems are pretty...

I only heard an extract from it on WATO, but he was just floundering. And he's been preparing for this all week. Incompetent. The veil has been lifted.
