Although Declan has a point. There is definitely something special about that club.

Anyone think the company producing Mourdant’s promo might have a sense of humour?

They’re too busy posting in that thread tbf

Maybe it was but it’s doing the rounds on Twitter. I haven’t actually seen links to the article, just screenshots of it.

Apparently Starmer bought his Mam some land so she could use it for a donkey sanctuary and the Heil is trying to use this against him. Claiming it is worth £10m (according to them) even though it’s green belt land without planning permission. This is one of the papers that sat on the story about Johnson protecting a sexual predator

I bet he doesn’t put any money on it though.

I was taking the piss really. As I don’t see him having a realistic chance of winning

So he’s refusing to publish them, as I suspected

The leadership race is a timely reminder that gender, age, race, religion or height are not obstacles to being a truly awful person

It’s not even a new policy. The government announced it last month / the month before. Although I’m sure one of the departments in question investigating his tax affairs had nothing to do with his reiterating the plans. You can tell there’s an element of spite because headcount is the only thing being considered as part of these savings. It’s impractical for a lot reasons. Covid and Brexit have created lots of work / red tape and the latter in particular is nowhere near ‘done’. I could go on and on, but it’s not exactly the most thrilling of subjects. But I’ll give one more example as to why it’s nowhere near as simple as it sounds: the MoJ has c 60,000 civil servants. But only about 10% are civil servants on what people would think of in the conventional sense, most of the rest are prison officers and probation officers.

You all take the piss but he’s made a career out of how 12 year olds spend their summer holidays

They set him back 200 Turkish Lira so he needs to get his money’s worth

Btw, even before the current shitshow, projections suggested Johnson would lose his seat in a general election

The reaction if get both though. if he’s available I think we can’t let the opportunity pass. I’m also not convinced that certain hacks bandying about stuff about FFP restrictions know what they’re on about. Also where are the sanctions against clubs like Chelsea and Everton who consistently flaunt the rules?

Was just thinking about the relatively free ride Johnson is getting with the media. When you think about the way Corbyn was basically portrayed as a Russian stooge over the Salisbury poisonings. Now you’ve got a story (which unless I’ve missed it, isn’t making much in the way of headlines on the tv news or the tabloids) whereby the current PM, then Foreign Secretary, met with an ex-KGB agent, without officials or his security team, in the wake of a NATO summit about the poisonings.

Unbelievable that like. Hunt is obviously a cunt but I thought he was at least reasonably intelligent

I think that applies in most cultures like

Look like going to war with the civil service might be about to bite them on the arse

Well it was historically in Co Durham, which belongs to Sunderland

I think he meant if he were to see his contract out here but as second choice keeper

I can’t work out which accounts are real people and which aren’t most of the time on Twitter. I’m not suggesting that’s a parody account and I think the errors you point out are down to genuine stupidity / ignorance. But there’s something fishy about loads of the accounts on there, including that one

She looks like the prototype about 3 versions before they got to Kay Burley

Same. I’d completely forgotten about F Troop

All the major news sources leading with Starmer instead and usually making direct comparisons with Johnson’s parties etc (without really attempting to explain the obvious differences). Bad enough but, as you say, the latter’s not even the reason Johnson got the push. Chris Pincher is still an MP too
