  1. The shadow chancellor spent all his energy pushing a Hamlet joke into his response and forget to ask any follow up questions. This annoyed Priti Patel who saw an opportunity to stab the Shadow Chancellor in the back (I think she wanted to be Shadow Chancellor)

    Is anybody actually running this country or just playing games?

  2. The Tories want us as the 51st State, no sovereignty, no NHS.
    Will Labour follow them like they do with everything else?
    Will it pretend there is a middle ground where the UK can be indpendant of both the US and the EU?

    Will Brits elect Farage next election to 'teach those liberals a lesson' and cut their own noses off? (Like we did with Brexit?)

    "In the coming months, the dying days of this Tory government will see ministers continue to scapegoat those with the least so as to save their own skins. Watch the words of Rishi Sunak during this period, but also whether Keir Starmer challenges them."

  15. If I were one of the “unemployed over-50s” of whom he speaks, I’d be saying, “Hey Mel… when you get on your bike, put a silly bag on your bag and ride around for hours for less than minimum wage, then maybe I’ll think about it.”
