And if I remember correctly, after the Westminster banning he headed up to Manchester and promptly got spotted and chased out of town by Wrexham fans up for a friendly match...:)

I don't know if it's the same grifters, but one of the main ringleaders during the pro-Brexit/Trump crowd that harassed MPs like Anna Soubry, was banned for a while, but that must've been about 3-4 years ago so presume they have been free to return for sometime...

I've already explained there's a big difference between online name-calling and in-person intimidation/harassment. Keep up...

Sorry keano, you're a jokester of a poster, pissed-up on Koolaid and long gone down the rabbit hole. Do everyone a favour and go back to masturbating into your sock while watching GB News...

Not often I agree with Dan Hodges... I think people are missing the point this morning. It's not that the crazy extremists heard what Boris was saying, then decided to copy him. It's that the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom heard what the crazy extremists were saying, and decided to copy them.

?What?s wrong with people? Being called names goes with the territory of being a politician.? Jo Cox was 'called names' before she was stabbed to death. There's a big difference between name calling, say on an online forum like this, or even shouting something from a passing car, than the organised and concerted harassment, abuse, and personal insults we saw aimed at Starmer, which also included someone carrying a noose. I'm sorry, but none of that is acceptable in a civilised society, where everyone, including MPs, has the right to walk down a public street without fear of such harassment. By all means protest but do it peacefully and without intimidation and harassment. Goodness knows what would've happened if the police hadn't been there. And all that apologists for such behaviour like you can do, is question whether it was a 'mob' or not. As Jo Cox found out, it only takes one 'nutter'. But hey, you're an apologist for Trump and the Capitol siege, so I guess this is small fry to you, big man...

Just bumping this up prior to the mid-week games starting tonight...

I don't think KK is that old Pgc... :)

1000...

Most people will be affected, some more than others. I don't see anything wrong with those who are fortunate to absorb the costs, showing concern for the rises. Estimated that 4 million, up from 2m, will now go into fuel poverty. Not a good look for one of the richest nations in the world...

At this rate could be dusting down Kool & the Gang's ''Celebration'' for the Going Home thread tomorrow... Confirmed - Dan Rosenfield is leaving Number 10, understood he resigned this morning

Latest reshuffle (H/T Matt Chorley)... BREAKING: New No10 team revealed Director of communications: Carrie Head of policy: Dilyn the dog Polester: Jennifer Arcuri Chief of staff: Peppa Pig

Perhaps 'Wine Time Friday' has come early this week?...

Please tell me they're now making them up... NEW - One No10 official: "Boris will feel more sorrow than Mary did watching Christ on the cross. It?s that level of void left in his life."

Where do journos like Laura Kuenssberg dig up their 'sources' from?... Another former colleague of PM and Mirza predicts her departure could be start of the end game... 'The apocalypse is preceded by all sorts of things you never expect to happen. The moon turns red and the sun goes black. Munira leaving boris had to be on such a list.' So bad it's good :) :) :)

Rats leaving sinking ship update... Big blow for Boris Johnson. No 10 policy chief Munira Mirza, at his side since City Hall, quits over Jimmy Savile slur: ?This was not the usual cut & thrust of politics; it was an inappropriate & partisan reference to a horrendous case of child sex abuse. You tried to clarify your position today but, despite my urging, you did not apologise.''

Boris Johnson: Smeargate, a play in 4 Acts... Monday: Boris Johnson makes Jimmy Saville claim Tuesday: No10 says PM stands by what he said Wednesday: Johnson doubles down in Commons Thursday: PM completely backs down Can't get enough culture vultures? Don't worry, a sequel is coming, Boris Johnson: Partygate, currently in production...

What's been the most interesting about recent polling is that Labour is now ahead on who would be best for the economy, which is very unusual, and I can't see anything that's been suggested today that will change that perception...

You could run the waste pipe externally but that would definitely need planning, and if it's as you say, at the front of the house, you might not get approval if it spoils the character of the property. Is it a semi or detached property? If so, could the waste go out to a side elevation and down the side of the house? Do you know where the main sewer is? Usually they are in the road at the front of a house, so you may already have drains running under the house or down the side, which you could connect into. This can be done internally, but would require a double-seal internal manhole, not the most aesthetically pleasing unless it was in a utility/boot room or similar...

''not saying it cant be done, but its a nice soudbite when you're in opposition (easy votewinner to rage agaist faceless, big, dirty oil companies), but much mroe difficult to apply in practice to a degree that will actually make a tangible difference...'' Oh I agree, rightly or wrongly, this will ultimately be about 'politics' rather than prudent economics. People won't give a fig about economic intricacies when the bills start landing on the floor. ''...not sure I agree that 'most sensible people' were really fully aware of what they were asking for (economically speaking) in supporting lockdowns.......Sixty-nine per cent of voters etc'' I never said sensible people were in the majority, after all 'a majority' voted for Brexit...

The ?200 'loan' seems to echo the prevalent Wonga economics of 'buy now pay back later' of financing purchases, albeit without extortionate interest rates, which originally used to be for one-off big-ticket purchases, but has now crept into mainstream weekly grocery/clothes shopping. Despite no interest, they still have to be paid back, and I suspect this 'loan' is just going to add to an already ticking time-bomb...
