I'm still trying to understand how you have to 'workshop' (by which I suppose he means sit down and think up the words, then practice them) two lines.

*Israeli singer, was with the Sisters of Mercy for a bit. Died quite young, very sad.

Very sad. Good record, mind.

Well, that lasted a long time...

"Okay, we've finished killing. Ceasefire's back on now."

Well he has done the press conference now.

Fuck off Bibi, you utter CUNT.

Netanyahu has been standing trial for the past five years on charges of bribery, fraud and breach of trust in connection with three separate cases. He denies any wrongdoing.

He said in a video message that he would have preferred to see the process to the end, but national interest "demanded otherwise".

Early this month, US President Donald Trump urged Herzog to "fully pardon" the prime minister.

At the time, Herzog made it clear that anyone seeking a pardon had to submit a formal request.

On Sunday, the president's office released the request and a letter by the prime minister himself, in light of "the importance of this extraordinary request and its implications".

And take Herzog with you.

I still remember very clearly watching Herzog in the early '90s, as a middle-ranking minister. His interview with Channel Four News was my first introduction to the Israeli government's I-reject-your-reality-and-substitute-my-own method of foreign policy, and so patronising and at odds with the evidence that I made a mental note to keep an eye out for this bloke in future.

That he slithered his way to the top doesn't surprise me at all.
