Do we know the likely identity of this Kemi spokesperson? It does sound rather like Kemi herself.

£14,250 compared to months of legal wrangling. Which is the best value?

When you've got killer arguments like "they hate the United Kingdom, Your Honour", like Kemi has, it's maybe natural to think you're going to win the case.

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.

Yeah, I like that too.

I thought judges were all lefty liberal out of touch biased. But apparently the government would have definitely won its appeal. I'm confused.

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.

On the plus side, I don't think she's gone with trans people yet.

I’m waiting for the first, “but Starmer never prosecuted Wallace”

Badenoch has been named Leader of the Year by the Spectator.

I may stop laughing some time in January.

Laff!…..I thought me legs would never dry

That's the hourly Two-Minute-Gush papers section for tomorrow's Today Programme well and truly sorted. A tenner says that Gove is also booked for the 08:55 slot.

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.

Farage thinks he won it, or is that Steve Coogan?

I saw Kemi is finally speaking about racism.

It just happens to a time when it isn’t.

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.

Genius Kemi's also had the Lords whip restored to Rami Ranger who's just had his CBE withdrawn. He's a crank who blamed a critical BBC documentary on Modi on Pakistani origin staff. He's given twice the amount to his party as Lord Alli has.

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