£40 for a “black tie gala dinner”? Must be at a local ‘Spoons
40 quid for a cheap hotel do in Bournemouth with a couple of squaddies grinding out some strangled WW2 classics. Seems horrifically overpriced.

It still sounds pretty cheap. Loss leader? Isn’t it supposed to be raising funds?

Oliver "Cheap Rodney Trotter impersonator" Dowden?
Rumour has it his wife phoned the police to report a gnome had been stolen from her garden - but then she remembered Oliver had gone to work.

Dowden was Nad's predecessor in Culture, Media and Sport. He's got his own thread in here somewhere.

I wonder if at any point Knight asks how much "the party" cares about any individual member, if they're not in the inner circle.

If you’re happy for those two to ram the ship further into the iceberg, you shouldn’t be allowed out without a carer.

Have the Germans left then?

Updated 11 minutes ago
The UK's first evacuation flight carrying British nationals has now left Sudan, Downing Street has confirmed.
At least two more flights are expected overnight, as the military attempts to get hundreds out of the war-torn country during a 72-hour ceasefire.
Families with children, the elderly and people with medical conditions will be prioritised on RAF flights leaving from an airfield near the capital Khartoum.
They are being told to make their own way to the airport, without an escort.
No 10 said the situation is "fast-moving" but the first flight is expected to arrive in Cyprus later, before people are transported back to the UK.
A temporary pause in fighting between rival military factions appears to be holding, although there have been reports of new gunfire and shelling...

Among other things, the cunts have openly politicised the post of Head of the Civil Service*.
The head of the civil service, Simon Case, has attempted to block former senior official Sue Gray from working with Labour as Keir Starmer’s chief of staff until after the next general election, the Guardian has been told.
Whitehall sources said that Case, as Gray’s former civil service boss in the Cabinet Office, had “pushed for” the government’s appointments watchdog to delay her starting the new job for the maximum two years...

The only reasons Case can have for this are political ones.
*Add this to the confirmed case of discrimination and there's more than enough reason for dismissal. But being a lapdog of the Tories means he won't be.
