  1. 2) Good #DemocracyForSale piece on #AndyBurnham’s election win and associated implications.

    The speed of #PM transition is a matter for conjecture, but a change at #Number10 is coming

    #KeirStarmer has declared that he will contest the challenge to his leadership of #Labour. I think he may demur if the outcome has the potential for humiliation

  3. theconversation.com/mandelson-. "Starmer & his #allies have argued that #Robbins did not tell the [PM] about concerns raised in the #vetting #process as he should have. In giving #evidence to MPs, Robbins said that #Number10 took a 'dismissive' approach to the vetting process. He also said that he was under 'constant pressure' to approve Mandelson’s clearance due to this being a #political #priority for #Starmer. Mandelson’s #appointment was announced #publicly before the vetting took place."

  6. @ChrisMayLA6 I assume that the #Starmtroopers calculated they had a binary choice between two packages of outcomes:

    A/ hold the GM mayoralty, lose Gorton, block #Burnham's coup

    B/ lose the GM mayoralty, hold Gorton, get defenestrated by #Burnham.

    Not being keen on defenestration, they chose package A. So they have selected a corporate lobbyist as #GortonAndDenton candidate to be eaten alive, but they keep their jobs in #Number10 for a bit longer.

  8. It took a French intervention to put manners on the Brits.
    But thanks to Macron, at last a 10 Downing Street ceremony has acknowledged the presence of the most important man in Number 10: Larry The Cat.

  10. As the bodies piled up
    As people died alone in hospital
    As families were kept seperated at Christmas.
    As the little people obeyed the rules those in power partied:
    These are Johnson's people, these are people he has bestowed honours on:

  11. #RishiSunak’s use of a taxpayer-funded helicopter to Southampton on Tuesday, costing around £6,000 to the #taxpayers, has been criticised as wasteful and environmentally damaging. #Number10 defends it as necessary for effective time management.

  12. @dangillmor that moment for me was a few years ago watching everybody #broadcasting live on a large #demonstration outside of #number10 but #bbcnews #bbc was doing something else and totally mum about it. #disappointed #revelation #news #censorship #selfcensorship

  13. More than a week now since the tall alien told the short alien he expected the media to talk about #number10 #party for days, maybe weeks.

  14. I've made a new cartoon!

    The alien observers note that #number10 has been having a #party.

    Can it be true that on this planet, the ruling classes don't have to follow their own rules?

    How much longer can the planet prevent collapse?

    Watch it and boost it and that if you like it.
