James O'Brien spent the first hour of his program today talking about this, and raised the salient points of not only is this yet another example of the pork haystack's gross misconduct in office but around 25 years ago the world was such that Bill Clinton was impeached for the same offense.

Also a bit weird how our free and fearless press were all too happy to suppress this but have gone overboard on Starmer having a beer, or Diane Abbott having a supermarket tin of mojito on public transportation, or Angela Rayner crossing her legs whilst wearing a skirt, or Jeremy Corbyn wearing the wrong coat at the cenotaph, or Ralph Miliband being an enemy of the state for daring to suggest some constructive criticisms of the UK.

A key point here being, do you belong? If you belong, then anything is permissible. If you don't then you will be constantly assessed, examined, and tested to make sure you're playing by the rules (which don't apply to those who belong). If you do, then you will be looked after.

Remember a few years ago that spat between Jay Rayner, Sarah Vine, and Toby Young? Vine and Young appalled that one who they saw as one of them (right uni, right place of work) wanted nothing to do with them, and cared nothing for the club membership.

Dark day for tabloids if they don’t want to go to town over the PM’s floozy caught with his cock in her mouth.

Bill Clinton was impeached for something not dissimilar.

Please do this again. Did it even work the first time? Ed certainly looked unprepared for the attack, but the polls were wrong all the way through as I understand it, rather than Cameron pulling through on the back of genius campaigning.

Boris Johnson faces tax questions after signalling defence budget rise
PM says increase to 2.5% of GDP will be reached by end of decade as UK needs to adapt to more dangerous world

It's going on the national debt, like Trump spending. Nobody on the right cares about fiscal responsibility really.

LD activists claimed it did but warning your LD vote will give Starmer the keys to No 10 through the backdoor won’t pack the same punch for the Tories.

Of course not. It's not their money.

The polling doesn't really show any shift. I wonder if the people who said it to them on the doorstep were never voting for them anyway.
