In ruling that government-led patronage of the arts is not acceptable, I hope that this has drawn an important line in the sand. The fact that the jolly Craicsters split the award between youth projects in both main Belfast communities is poetry in its own right.

They love a good thwarting, them on the right. Nothing better than the two lovely words, "if only...". And imagining what might have been is a hella lot cheaper than actually building it.

Kemi went hard for "what did Starmer know and when about Lou Haigh". He rightly swerved that shit. It's right that people with spent convictions get to move on- that's kind of the point of spent convictions. So nothing wrong with putting her in the Cabinet 11 years later. Sunak and Bozo got Covid convictions as Starmer pointed out.

She's also going for Reeves' comment to the CBI that she wouldn't raise taxes or borrowing. That was a gaffe by Reeves, but Starmer's already dropped that.

She seemed to have built everything around her "we're a party with conviction, they just have convictions" line, despite a) the easy Johnson/Sunak riposte, and b) the fact they're losing members to ReFuck for not being bonkers enough. And c) forgetting that Starmer has the last word.

They seem stuck in Johnson mode.

I may stop laughing some time in January.
Starmer, Davey and even Farage have much more qualification than her. It's only John Swinney that doesn't.
Spectator editors see only a two horse race: Sunak and Badenoch.

Next Year the choice will be: Farage or nothing.

I see Kemi has gone from criticizing Starmer for traveling to conferences of leaders to flying to the US to speak at a dinner.

Paul Goodman has acknowledged the need for the Tories to appeal to the professionals who were once their base. Kemi is accusing Starmer of making racist jokes.

BBC News is always most eager to double-down on Rangers, just not this one.
