I think this is it in a nutshell.

Now now ... :)

Rachel Reeves backs PM. That'll help.

As Trump once said of the world of politics, it's a swamp. And let's face it, to varying degrees, many politicians around the globe are in the swamp, whether dipping their toe or up to their necks.

Anas Sarwar giving press conference now. Direct quote: 'The distraction needs to end, and the leadership in Downing Street needs to end ... We cannot allow the failures at the heart of Downing Street to mean the failures continue here in Scotland'. So there you go, Anas has taken the stance...

Lammy comes out with public support for PM. With friends like that ... ;)

Given the Scottish election is in early May, I reckon Anas would need to do something pretty miraculous to turn around Labour's woes. Two horse race between SNP and Reform, if the polls are to be believed...

Scottish Labour were riding high in the polls up here, it was almost becoming a given that come our Scottish elections, Labour could win and topple the SNP stranglehold. Then when Keir got in, his relatively rapid decline in popularity, along with that of Labour south of the border, started to...

Scottish Labour leader Anas Sarwar about to hold press conference, calling for the PM to stand down.

This is the conclusion I've reached. Regardless of the political system used, the old human traits (in terms of those who seek to be leaders) of a hunger for power, greed and a dose of narcissism are never far away.

I'm not sure if it's just a temporary state of mind for many of us, partly fueled by social media, soundbites and misinformation left right and centre (pardon the pun!), however there seems to be a real feeling that our current political system isn't working. At the very least, it's an...

Broken leg https://eu.usatoday.com/story/sports/olympics/2026/02/08/lindsey-vonn-injury-update-condition-crash-2026-winter-olympics/88579297007/

Can I politely request you don't take up any of these events. If you do, within weeks if not sooner you will be world class. This would then mean you entering the next Winter Olympics and most likely winning gold for every event you enter. This isn't really fair to those who have dedicated...

No. What's the phrase politicians and various talking heads like to use in these scenarios? 'my/his/her/their position has become untenable' Some are saying he'll limp on until May, I've got my doubts.

Yeah and I'm sure it adequately compensates in all cases. Anywhere from £1k - £500k depending on severity. Someone might have a relatively minor ongoing condition caused by the act, how much are they getting? They've still to live with the condition regardless year in year out. Scum need...

I fully appreciate the legal system can't be locking everyone up for decades, nor should it. However it really annoys me when someone is the victim of crime in such a way that will possibly/probably leave them with lifelong issues to whatever degree (e.g. this victim might now have back issues...

Michaela Tabb. She left in 2015. World Snooker has announced it has reached an out-of-court settlement with Michaela Tabb after the referee brought a case against the professional tour. Tabb had claimed sex discrimination, unfair dismissal and breach of contract against World Snooker, the...

Sometimes I don't mind watching Selby play, depends what sort of mood I'm in. I like all aspects of the game, the high breaks, the quick clearances, watching them try to get out of solid snookers and watching the female referees. I let myself down with the last part, I apologise.

I'll say it again. More and more, it's the perpetrators of crimes where sympathy seems to lie, not the victims. I wonder what the makeup of the jury was.

Just a little poll about our Keir ;)
