Most (though not all) of the arrangements were decided by the Gordon Brown government.


Probably, as you say, to piss off Galloway. And Dennis Skinner.

UKIP is the reason why universal suffrage isn't always to be celebrated.


A party with no policies or competence that gets a tick for government from 15% of the population.


I do them the favour of refusing to remember their names, Louisa does otherwise it seems.

It's not just religion, it's testosterone. MT had both as does TB.


A short true story.

An American friend of mine lives on her own on an island. When she was 98, she was taken poorly and taken to the mainland. They asked her what day it was, where she thought she was, and who was the President.

She got the first two, and refused to answer the third.

Getting very concerned for her mental health they kept asking her.

Finally, she yelled out, "Don't make me name that son of a bitch". (It was Geroge Dubbya).

She's about 101 now and doing fine.

Didn't see Tone today but he converted to catholicism when he was no longer PM. I felt this was a very similar move to Prunella Scales and Timothy West nailing their red colours to the mast as soon as their youngest left Alleyn's.

Whichever political party dares to withdraw tax payer funding from faith schools will get my vote- no other questions asked.

    • I’ve tried to find details of surgeries being held before but not found any. The section of the Southwark website that details councillors’ surgeries says that: Your locally elected Councillors will be holding a roving surgery programme in the Dulwich Hill area to enable residents to raise any local issues. Residents will be notified by letter in advance of the date, time and specific streets/roads where the surgery will take place.  Surgeries are not held in August, on Bank Holidays, Easter or in Christmas Week.  Dulwich Hill Ward Councillors I’ve never seen any notification of surgeries being held, including on the DH councillors’ social media accounts. I don’t know if any other residents of Dulwich Hill have? Neighbouring wards all seem to have times and places posted for surgeries.   
    • I wouldn't feel too bad about that. It's one of the few degree areas that you can do a BA or a BSc in, so it's a fairly wide-ranging and complex subject. Certainly Truss, Kwasi and Reeves seem to struggle with it.
    • I can't access the article - what's the gist?  I took the markets getting jittery when she was crying at PMQs to be a sign that they trusted her. But maybe it was because they were simply worried about any form of instability.  The NIC hikes have stymied the economy, which we could all see a mile off. Will a wealth tax improve things? Does anyone here think the trickle down has any impact and that chasing out the super rich will help things? Or are we just seeing off the biggest contributors to the economy? And has the Kwasi approach ever worked anywhere else?  Economics is not my strong point at all, I'd love to know others' opinions, but it seems to be she has few options, especially as the party is so divided. 
    • does either of them have a surgery? probably not over summer, but I thought they had to give the opportunity for their constituents to meet them.
