In the recent past, lawyers have stopped convicted criminals and illegal immigrants from being flown back to their countries of origin. And using the European Convention on Human Rights, they have repeatedly stopped the Rwanda Bill. By doing so, they are also ­stopping the will of the elected House of Commons and thereby the will of the people.

Now they appear to have shut down the future of an entire ­industry at the stroke of a pen, ushering in the beginning of the end of new fossil fuel extraction in this county. A coal mine in Cumbria, approved by the Government in 2022, must now be under threat.The ruling could also have a bearing on offshore oil and gas projects such as the giant ­Rosebank field in the North Sea. Whether you think this legal ­development is right or wrong, surely the public should have some say in the matter?

So, basically the same old crap the right have been wanging on about for years.

The commons with the Conservative supermajority didn't pass the Rwanda bill until recently.
Maybe the bill was a load of shit.

He's a complete and utter lawyer. Can't say I've followed it closely, but he's had a few dubious clients over the year.

True, that doesn't make him a bad person. George Carman QC, arguably our greatest libel lawyer, once represented me. (We won on away goals. Me and Ken Dodd, then, though Doddy was playing at home.)

But I don't buy the 'cab rank' argument either. Depends on where you park your cab. If you park up outside Scott's restaurant in Mayfair you'll pick up Kate Moss. If you linger outside Finsbury Park Mosque, you'll end up with Abu Qatada or one of his oppos. And it's no good arguing you don't go south of the river.

Britain is about to become the UKSSR — Ubergruppenfuhrer Keir Starmer's Socialist Republic.

COMMIENAZIS!

Seriously, what a cunt.

I get so frustrated when Littlejohn types rant on about the "cab rank rule", in his case he has shown a complete disregard for how it works. A barrister does not tout for business, someone usually a solicitor has to come to you with a case which is within your area of expertise. If you are available then you take the case. A criminal defence barrister could have a jack the lad from a sink estate one day to defend and a disgraced former MP the next. barristers are not their clients, they are there to ensure their client's case is adequately put forward and the evidence tested. Jonathan Laidlaw QC represented Rebekah Brooks, it certainly was not the case that by doing so he supported the notion it was ok to hack into people's phones.

There could be a point in the future where Mr Littlejohn requires some legal advice, at which point he will be glad that Rumpole of the Bailey whoever will defend him without fear or favour.

Wonder if he’s done his postal vote

Double dose. First, here's him on his home turf. America.

Not too bad, in a "they're both shit" way. He kind of glosses over Trump's criminality though. Oh, and are all swing states "key", in the way all speeches are "keynote"?

Sorry, but as someone who loves the US, I came away from last night's debate thinking that America deserves better than this. The free world deserves better than this. The only winners last night were Putin, China and the ayatollahs.

What struck me as missing, in the absence of a CNN studio audience, was the bold British grandfather Robert Blackstock, the standout performer from the Sunak/Starmer show on Wednesday night, who asked the contenders:

'Are you two the really the best we've got?'

It's the same question Middle America must be asking itself today.

Onto the main event then...

Yes, it's Chad fucking Hanging.

But didn't the Conservatives have a yuge majority last time out?

That's right, Chad. Under President Boris Johnson they won an 80-seat majority, on a Get Brexit Done ticket.

So what's gone wrong for the Tories?

They got rid of President Boris because he was fined £50 for eating a piece of birthday cake during the Covid lockdown.

Just fuck off.

And still they have the nerve to criticise American politics. Suddenly a choice between Trump and Biden doesn't seem so bad.

And when you get there, fuck off some more.

You cunt.

In which he completely loses his shit.

The cunt.

I wonder when he wrote that? It sure as shit wasn't at 17:05 CST.

Several columns prepared in advance. Get exit poll and select the most suitable.

I did love him complaining about voters getting infantilised. After, you know, Johnson on a bulldozer going through some polystyrene bricks.

What reasons does LJ give for Starmer leading the most dangerous hard left government in history?
I’ll take a guess that Ed Miliband wants to ban cars and make us ride bicycles. And Keir will sell out Britain to sinister globalist Marxists like Macron and Ursula VDL.

Well, I’m really not looking forward to paying the meat tax.

It's quite funny seeing the responses to all these "Starmer and his socialist Government" attacks. They've got all the Right wingers fuming about it, alongside the Corbynites also fuming and screaming "he's not socialist, he's a red tory!". It's going to make for some interesting bedfellows.

In which he purposely misunderstands the difference between the Brexit referendum and the FPTP voting system. With hilarious effect.

Slightly fewer words than normal, with much of the article taken up by photos of David Lammy and Gina Miller, to remind the readership what sort of people are now in charge and abolishing demockrasee.

I'd be perfectly happy to re-run the referendum every five years.

Big long whinge about the BBC, not that he's bitter about not being invited on, oh no, got much better things to do. Any minute now.

Cunt.

Aren't we lucky, isn't Trump presidential, aren't all of these allegations against him just silly, anyway, what about Fargle getting hit by a milkshake and that David Tennant, he's a bastard, and what about Angela Rayner, she called someone something nasty once. Anyway, let's all be glad the messiah didn't die and let's be nice and next week I'll be back to telling you all who to hate and it'll be business as usual.

Biden is crap, Trump is God, blah. In other words, he's watched some US telly and made notes.

Lazy cunt.

I know it's a bit of a cliche but I'm so Bored with the USA and, unlike Joe and Mick, I really mean it.

If it wasn’t for Trump’s anti NATO pro Putinish stance and his climate change denial, I would be happy to switch off this madness at a safe distance.

I think they just call it telly where he lives.

Cunt knows that he can't be as crude as to say "America will never vote for a woman of colour as president", so he has to dress it up a bit. First, by playing the "I know you are, but what am I?" card:

If she emerges victorious, it will be conclusive evidence of the Democrats’ descent into the divisive politics of identity, where — to paraphrase Martin Luther King — a Presidential candidate can now be chosen not on the content of her character of her ability to do the job but on the colour of her skin and her gender.

Because of course, Trump is anything but divisive. Plus some other barbs:

Perhaps Kamala could plump for openly gay transport secretary Pete Buttigieg. Crazy name, crazy guy. A black woman/gay man combo would have Democratic activists salivating. How it would play in the Bible Belt and the bars of Middle America is a whole different question.

Which I think translates as "Ha ha, he does gay stuff with gay men. Bums and willies."

Meanwhile, the wider world looks on in horror. The only winners are Moscow, Pyongyang, Tehran and Beijing.

On Sunday, in the run-up to Biden’s announcement, Fox News was carrying two breaking news stories.

One, don't pretend to be concerned. You want your guy in, regardless. Two, really? Fox News led with two foreign news stories over the weekend, that seem to have gone under the radar everywhere else? And which are somewhat less than concrete?

Cunt.
