Well handled Bridget

It was Tories who pursued appeasing Hitler in the 1930s. Churchill’s War Cabinet was 3 Tories and 2 Labour until 1942 and 3 Tory 3 Lab, one Other after 42. The Tories claiming victory as theirs is untrue. They were rumbled in 1945. Liberals led the country in WW1.

Do you mean revelation?

As in, as well, it could be all the rage!

I reckon renaming the A719 Maidens Road with either of your ideas would be appropriate.
That’s the road that Trump Turnberry is on …

Yep. Just makes the USA less and less safe and their citizens travelling anywhere in the world less and less safe, whether a journalist or a tourist. Your enemies are laughing all the way to the gun store.

The use of Reform colours is just dumb and offensive. But. If, after following due process, people have no right to stay here then they absolutely should not be staying. But equally we need a legal route.

Just shows her lack of grasp of how the world works.

Yes well 🙄. If people were treated properly and promptly by the NHS they failed to support, if education in skills had not been decimated, if public servants hadn’t been sacked or retired early through cuts, if if if you hadn’t been incompetent for 14 years…

Happy Birthday. It could be worse. My Mum’s birthday ended up better known as 9/11 and I was born on 21 October (Trafalgar Day) and was almost named Horatio! Lucky escape.

Pretty confident that the cost per passenger of providing and maintaining a few hundred miles of rail infrastructure, plus running the train, comes to a lot more than air travel. Very pleased her back could manage many hours in a cramped airplane seat. All to save £58.

I think as a word it is. My point is more that Hunt was apologised to repeatedly when this was said by media and they tried not to use it. With Reeves they are heartily engaging in it, repeating it, and not sorry. It is always the intent of an insult that matters.

Each to their own. Bottom line is Spreadsheet Phil was not intended to be demeaning.

And a class response. Well done Rachel Reeves.

Hi Rob. No, there is no equivalence. Spreadsheet Phil was coined by his own colleagues about his obsession with detail and was meant to communicate that he was a steady hand on the money. All went wrong in omnishambles. The term for Reeves is intended to be demeaning and sexist.

I may have inferred an equivalence between the occasional accidental mispronunciation of Jeremy Hunt’s name and this misogynistic slur on Reeves. Not what I meant. Hunt was often apologised to and it was an accident. This is a deliberate abuse of Reeves which shows bias contempt and misogyny

I was trying to be a little humorous. Actually it was rarely mispronounced by the media and never used directly by MSM to abuse him as I recall. But Reeves has been abused regularly with this misogynistic comment. And I believe we know this is the invention of a male Reform MP as a conscious slur.

That’s just so misogynistic and just offensive. I wish I could say it’s a new low but sadly not. Would never happen with a male chancellor. Jeremy Hunt was treated much better.

Well. Like the USA it depends if they can find a legal route to stay. The rules do vary between countries, there is no fixed European system. It depends on where they have been studying, on what basis, and the rules of that nation or of any other country they want to move to.

Try Prim’s Bookstore in Kinsale when next in Ireland - a nice glass.

Wear what they wear in winter in Newcastle. A t shirt and short skirt or shorts.
