Agreed. Her resignation letter was unbelievable.

The Conservatives should take a lot of responsibility for her but they won't. The damage she did was significant

I think someone checked the dates and it was either Badenoch, Keegan or possibly Frazer (not quite sure of the third).

What will Badenoch do I wonder.

Fuck all probably.

Agree.

I'm actually glad she doesn't fully see herself as English or British. I'd hate people overseas to think she represents what we are like.

Mike Amesbury's jail sentence has been suspended, he is still subject to a recall petition.

Keir Starmer is meeting Trumpski right now

I wouldn’t fancy being his probation officer trying to enforce his community service.

It's really not a great look when an MP quite rightly gets put in prison for assault and then miraculously gets a super quick appeal and his sentence suspended.

It was quite entertaining when his counsel had to query that a custodial sentence was starting now. He had not even brought a bag and had expected it to be suspended in accordance with the guidelines.

This stupid man has ruined his life.

Starmer gives Trump invite from King for state visit as White House talks begin

At this point I'm just totally fed up with all of Westminster. We vote out a corrupt government and they get replaced with an equally corrupt government.

Fully expected this as a bargaining chip. Trump loves that stuff.

Well it was obvious he was going to do this.
It's diplomacy and stroking the mango mussilini's ego.

I'll start getting my placard ready for the inevitable protest march.

If I were Charles I'd be planning a timely "relapse".

Entirely predictable. He loved his state dinner with the late Queen.

Unpalatable though it may be, it does have to be done.

🤣
What use are the Royal Family

Globally, they are hugely significant. You must realise that?

(I'm no monarchist, by the way, but I do accept that they can play an important role)

I’m being hugely sarcastic. The RF wield soft power that politicians can only dream of.

Trump has forgotten he called Zelenskyy a dictator

Starmer had to correct him a few times

Starmer also dealt well with Vance

Well that appears to have gone well for St. Kemi. If Starmer were a nasty person, he'd bring Trumps wrath down on someone who dared to suggest this isn't a "good deal".

<Liam Neeson voice> RELEASE THE CHARLES !

Well, this use. Trump loves it. It’s a bargaining chip with him. I’m a republican and would get shot, but since we do have them this is actually one thing that’s any use at all they can do.
Edit: see it was sarcasm. My radar is off lately as it’s so difficult to tell it from ‘normality’ currently.

I think we should start planning the menu.
