They sent several emails and left messages to him, and having heard nothing assumed he was ignoring them and publicly announced he had been dropped as a candidate. Tragic oversight or lack of any due process, reform said they were mortified, having previously dissed the candidate in a press...

Sunak is driving out one of the red wall MP's that gave his party its majority in 2019. Surely a sign of the complete wipe out he faces at the next general election. 30p Lee will lose his seat but is assured of a good job on GB News.

What will rishy do? A direct attack on our merchant fleet.

He totally broke the rules (and went against advice) to save Labour from political embarrassment. Whatever the moral rights and wrongs of the wider issues he has succeeded in pi**ing everyone off except his old mates. Now the Tories are rumoured to be putting up a candidate against him at the...

Cameron doubling down on his call to America to vote through aid to ukrane, not sure it will tip the balance in the long term, but very statesmanlike approach, and has told it like it is i.e. say no to appeasement. Even managed a little dig at the brexxers by warmly recognising the contribution...

Interesting article in the Wail on Sunday. Something of a contradiction between remoaners being told that brexhit was done, so move on. And on the other hand die hard brexxers keeping the candle alive. Wish they could make their minds up. So for every poster that complains other posters are not...

Beautiful service and superb music, the best TV funeral I've seen. Blup

According to the daily fail a trade deal with ron de sanctis has been signed, Florida has an economy larger than Spain, but no real detail. Ron said “UK companies, account for more than 70,000 jobs there making Britain the top foreign investor” So who really benefits...

How can a promise which had no basis in fact be delivered? Gove seems to think by saying it it becomes true. Blup

Did the Aussies cheat when Bairstow left the crease at the end of the over, or was it just unsportsmanlike behaviour. Or, on the other hand, sour grapes from England who were losing, and went on to lose. Blup

What is the point? How does an alarm help in any conceivable circumstances, like a nuclear bomb about to explode, or flooding, fire, terrorism. Some blokes at Gold Command have got together to justify their existence. Wholly unnecessary in the world of social media we live in. And this from a...

For the rugby, I mean they already have an advantage being at home on St Patrick's weekend. Anyway looking forward to a great game and a win for England. To be honest I have a feeling it will be a great game even if Ireland win... Blup

Has he got a leg to stand on? He’s been shafted by Isabel Oakeshott, but wouldn’t these whatsapp messages have come out under a freedom of information request? Maybe he could some compensation for breach of contract? Blup

Maybe you don't watch Frasier or Fools and Horses. But it is good that Lyndhurst's comic acting talents have been recognised across the pond, particularly after his family tragedy. I won't start a poll but IMO he is a genius. Blup

The daily flail has gone into full anti woke mode over this: "Cambridge Dictionary accused of kowtowing to 'woke activists' after updating definition of 'woman' to include anyone who 'identifies as female'" Can a man ever be a woman? In other news (closer to home) the definition of male has...

The daily flail reports Tories are concerned the chancellor's comments in the budget speech that closer ties to Europe could lead to a Swiss style economic deal where we have better access to EU markets but without membership. Seems like a plan and would potentially resolve the NI impasse. Blup

George Eustice a former UKIP, leave supporting cabinet minister has branded LT's Australia deal a failure. It would seem the free marketeers are saying the deal is good for UK consumers because prices will be lower. And the protectionists are arguing the deal is bad for uk farming interests. So...

.. has reportedly signed up for I'm a Celebrity. Is there any real difference between celebrity and the length politicians go achieve popularity. One example, Liz Trussed who brazenly promised the party faithful what they wanted - tax cuts - and got voted in on the back of it. Were the tory...

What gifts, presents have you received over the years from grateful customers for completing a job or maybe at Christmas if you get regular work. I want to suitably reward my independent garage mechanic who's saved me thousands by his honest workmanship and advice. Blup

It wouldn't stand up in court if it could be challenged says government lawyer David Pannick, so is the inquiry politically biased with a foregone conclusion? Blup
