My postie is called Andy too. Very friendly and reliable. He’s so nice I overlook him being a jambo.

Cat on a Hot Tin Roof — "Mendacity" YouTube video by Moist Cut

Hot on the heels of nae neck Dode scaremongering about national security comes a backbencher pushing the same spiel . This is ukgov SOP for introducing unpopular policies.
We’re being softened up.

AI will be used to run comparisons of scanned images from High Streets across the uk. A person who’s lived their entire life in Inverness will find themselves arrested and dragged off to London as a suspect in a local crime.
It happened with DNA.

Now, now, we can’t be seeing them visit rent-boy brothels or being whipped/pegged by their dominatrix, can we.

The USA brands itself the world’s greatest democracy, a country founded on noble purpose (We the People…), but where’s your Welfare State, free Universal Healthcare, free Education, paid maternity/paternity/annual leave etc? All standard in Europe.
You’ve been had.

It sounds like Mandelson getting the job was a done deal and they worked back through the process ticking boxes.
SOP for politicians: this is the desired conclusion, evidence it and have your report on my desk asap.

But remember, we’ll all have to help England through what will be a very difficult and trying time. It is after a covetous, tarry-fingert, jealous to the point of stupidity, needy fucker that hides its failings behind a towering arrogance and mystifying sense of entitlement.
😂😂😂

And a family authorised version, fetch the saccharine 🤢

Is Vlad dictating the USA’s demise, or has he watched the West Wing and, having detailed knowledge of trump’s weaknesses and many failings thought, ‘let trump be trump’.

I suspect as with so many things, ukgov is copying the Scottish system but will never admit or acknowledge so. Have you heard any of them say ‘Scotland has had summary courts for decades’?

Theft-MV, theft-HB, minor fraud and embezzlement, assaults, RTA etc can all be heard at summary courts. I may have picked this up wrong, is ukgov proposing crimes normally reserved for the High Court - murder, rape/sexual offences, wilful fireraising, subornation of messenger, treason, for summary?

You’re describing Scottish politics. Whenever ScotGov introduces anything, whether it’s a Bottle Deposit Return Scheme, or a Baby Box, it’s labelled controversial or hugely unpopular and one or more shill from a London controlled party is platformed to call it controversial or hugely unpopular.

Hilarious, but in a really beautiful sort of way.

Fiddlers Red.

Cheat for Change! There’s a suitable slogan for labour.

We’ve had summary trials in Scotland since the 50’s. At Justice of the Peace courts (replaced District Courts) and Sheriff Summary courts.

That last paragraph is a zinger!

Yep. Support for Scottish independence has grown year on year and likely sits around 60%. However, pollsters would have us believe it’s only 50/50.
Either number has the Anglo-state 💩🧱 as even the lower number shows support holding steady, despite incessant Scotland is shite/SNPbad rhetoric.

I have a similar thought for SNP & Green politicians in Scotland. If you’ve ever seen BBCS news you may have noticed the sharp contrast between how interviews are conducted with the London parties and the SNP.
SNP politicians should ask at the outset if they too can have the soft-soap option.

Interesting article. I couldn’t help chuckle at a media site actually calling itself londoncentric when a major issue with what passes for a media in the uk is very, very, londoncentric.

I read that BBC Wales and PC have an amicable relationship, not incestuous like BBC Scotland and labour, but not openly hostile as we see every day with Scotland-is-shite SNPbad reporting. But, should PC gain the Senedd, will there be a cull at BBCW and the BBCS model grafted on?

Given you state it’s a BBC interview, and it’s likely to be interviewing a uk politician, probably a ukgov minister - who is a member of Labour Friends of Israel, and therefore also being bribed/blackmailed by that country, they’ll both dance around the issue of Israel’s genocide in Gaza.

The EU must be wondering if the fuckwits in ukgov will ever understand just exactly what third country status means.
ukgov is like the golfer who left his golf club because he didn’t like the rules or the fees, and now isn’t happy because he has to pay a visitors fee to play the course.

Hitler’s Rudolf Hess Mystery Finally Solved in 2025 And It Isn't Good YouTube video by Top History

We cannot ever trust the rich and those who think of themselves as the ruling elite.
There was always a waft of shite about the Rudolf Hess affair.

It’s not awkward. It confirms once again he’s a liar.

The Irish government has asked the EU parliament if NI politicians can be given observer status at proceedings. It appears reunification plans are progressing, just don’t expect to see it on what passes for a uk media.

I laughed at the idea Don Tzu losing his last battle on the lavvy. But to be fair to Elvis, he had just had a good workout in his racquetball court. Fattzu couldn’t work out if his arse was punched or bored.

Have a look for the Emergency Services Network upgrade, there’s another few billion being pissed up against a wall.

Coming to a store near you if retailers bribe ukgov ministers…

“On Friday, Sarwar was repeatedly asked if he would call for Starmer to resign – for a second time – but the Scottish Labour leader refused to do so , insisting that he stands by his previous position.”
The article doesn’t state if Sarwar could specify which previous position he referred to.
