Bridget speaks well but she’s very on message. We think this, we think that. Malcom Tucker would love her - polished 

 

I didn't watch tonight but yes, thats the impression. Career politician lacking personal wamth or charisma on screen. Still preferable to mosr MPs out there, i rate competence very highly personally.

She has been training to be a politician her whole life.

 

I really doubt that's true. She's not an etonian or from a political dynasty.

Someone’s had too many blue moons and the rest of the family are doing the local pub online quiz :lol:

That makes sense, ie playing a game where you try and wind up people just because they care as opposed to one where you might have to try and think

I see the Mail on Sunday have broke the scandalous news that Keir Starmer bought a field over twenty years ago so his mother could look after rescue donkeys. Hard to see him coming back from this.

“Man of the people Starmer owns land which could be worth up to £10m!”

Turns out it’s field that backs on to his late mother’s house, and home to a donkey sanctuary. He bought the field so she could continue to watch the donkeys after she lost the ability to walk. 
 

What a cunt

What's the spin on that, some sort of notion that it makes him rich and elite?


That if he builds houses on the land (which he can’t), the houses ‘may’ be worth ‘up to’ £10mil....

If it was some Tory cunt they’d be on about how kind they were and how marvellous the potential windfall is. That said, it’s looking good for him if that’s the best they can come up with.

The Mail is absolutely obsessed with the value of people's homes. It's in almost everything they write about.

 

"The immigrants are housed in a £250,000 townhouse with 3 bedrooms between 50 people"

"Joe Bloggs murdered his wife in their £750,000 bungalow"

"Adam Johnson assaulted a minor in an alley behind a £24m shit hole"

 

Why do they do it, who fucking cares?

Their readers - it's a classic trait.
