Incredible.

I thought this was a good idea that worked in other places. But I forgot the rule that nobody’s allowed to do anything unless they’re Farage or Boris Johnson, who are allowed to be “bold”.

It is frustrating; it's contributing to the narrative of the government being weak.

Although, as journalist James O'Malley points out, it'll still largely happen.

So will policing the streets, despite the Lib Dem nonsense.

I got a digital ID some time ago (in France) and so far I'm still here and OK...

Not only does Shabana Mahmood have an impressive command of her briefs (settle down at the back) but has the good fortune to be shadowed by the hapless Chris Philp.

Ahem. I believe he is more properly known as Chris Felch. M’lud.

Stupid government.

Today’s historic results from the latest offshore wind auction shows the difference a Labour government can make to our communities.

After months of our opponents on the right casting doubt on the benefits of clean power, the results announced today, alongside new analysis on costings are emphatic: we have secured a record amount of clean power at a price that is significantly lower than that of building and operating new gas fired power plants.

The results announced today mean offshore wind in every corner of the country, from Dogger Bank off the Yorkshire coast, to Awel y Mor in Wales, to Berwick Bank in the North Sea.

Labour is delivering our historic promise made at the last election, to deliver energy security through clean power, and bring down bills for good.

But seriously this is a real game changer

Yeahbut Net Zero, WEF.

Won't someone think of the seagulls?

Yeahbut Net Zero, WEF.

Don't generate power, 5G, pay them to stand still, hydrogen, blah blah.

The interwebs are filled with consiracies.
To the point that they dominate every rebuttal of government success.

Even London's crime stats "Ahh, but see how they're saying Homicide - when we all know that Murders are increasing".

Freeman of the land, meed scientific illiteracy meet gullible twats.

See also this morning's news on the economy - growth in last quarter 3 times what was predicted. Reactions run from 'too little, to late' to '3x fuck all is still fuck all'. Best/worst was 'yebbut it's all from the service economy'. Which makes up only 81% of the entire economy, but it's not big manly men jobs in factories so doesn't count, apparently.

Fucking cretins.

Didn't a certain PM - under the influence of her economist advisers - say that the future for the UK was as a service economy?

There's now an unchallenged acceptance that everything the government does is wrong and everything that happens is for the worse.

Yeah but proper service economy jobs with red braces and manly shouting at fellow gamblers.
