Daily mail readers yeah possibly … guardian readers and lawyers not so much . 

[steviewevie]

UK does need to do a deal with France about these boats. Maybe share the intake of asylum seekers or something. Maybe treat these people humanely, like desperate people looking for a safe home, not just like some sort of threat, a burden, an inconvenience. And this goes for the French as much as us. Apparently Macron was going to offer some deal but got pissed off with Truss' friend or foe thing.

Perhaps they need a coffee ? But maybe not this one

The Tories aren’t dying, they always come back. They are like Hydra. 

[Guest]

I wonder if now is the time for Labour to start calling for a general election?

They'll want the energy thing out of the way. No point being in power then having rationing this winter.

[Guest]

It starts putting pressure on ahead of Truss caving in the Spring is my thought. Plus it keeps it in the public’s mind with Labour calling for an election all the time.

Precisely. 
 

There’s an absolute shitshow coming and the Tories don’t want it to happen while they’re in charge. If they get Labour in then can blame it all on them. 
 

Spring is the time for an election and hopefully the Tories will cease to exist after it.

Musk buying Twitter maybe back on.

He should just build a big rocket and fuck off somewhere else and maybe take all his twatty friends like Putin and Trump and Bolsonaro and the entire tory party with him.

Anyone else?

all very well to blame energy crisis on Russia and covid etc., but it was the sudden load of unfunded tax rises and lack of evidence that this will lead to growth that screwed everything up.
