Ha, I've missed @russincheshire.bsky.social and #theweekintory so I wondered how he's dealing with a *technically* left wing government. Glad to see he's calling it out exactly like it is.
If you care about how things are (and might become), this excellent piece of writing from @russincheshire.bsky.social is well-worth 10mins of your time. No paywall, so fill your boots 😊
His books are a masterclass in seeing humour in everything, no matter how awful they might be.

For those who miss #TheWeekInTory I now do a weekly column for @bylinetimes.bsky.social

Hooray, looking forward to more of #TheWeekinTory.
“‘Things Can Only Get Better’. Number 10’s polling gurus have clearly concluded the opposite and decided to jump before they’re swallowed by the omnidirectional crisis hydra they’ve created.”

@russincheshire.bsky.social has written a new #TheWeekInTory (on the former bird site)…
As he hasn’t posted over here himself very much lately and I know you don’t want to miss it, here it is…

@RussInCheshire is back on the bird site with his #TheWeekInTory, though at the mo he's having to write one every couple of days or so. Here's the unroll link for the latest one on Thread Reader. You're welcome x threadreaderapp.com/thread/17240...
@russincheshire.bsky.social I think we're going to need #TheWeekInTory after this reshuffle.
I absolutely love #TheWeekInTory.
Hurrah, #TheWeekInTory is now on Bluesky, thanks Russ.
Makes me feel slightly better about the state of NZ politics, but that is not meant to be a challenge to the idiots in waiting.
Great to have an unexpected #TheWeekinTory from the Doc @russincheshire.bsky.social
Russ, what a joy to read #TheWeekinTory again. You are a genius! Thank you
A welcome albeit infuriating return of #TheWeekInTory
Woohoo, @russincheshire.bsky.social and #TheWeekinTory is here!
Woohoo, writing's on the wall for the dead bird so giving this a try (Threads not available for my laptop yet). Can't tell you how glad I am to see you and #TheWeekInTory here. Welcome, hope you stay.
Woohoo! #TheWeekInTory is back 🤩
For those not familiar with Russ's #TheWeekInTory threads, they're a merciless satire on UK politics in general & the Tory government in particular. Recommended.
The ever fabulous #TheWeekInTory is back, hurray! And no, things haven't improved 😬
#TheWeekInTory is back, damn you
1. Britain faces a crisis in health, education, farming, energy, housing, childcare, social care, imports, exports, manufacturing, services, debt, growth and infrastructure, so Rishi Sunak announced his grand plan to slightly alter A-Levels
Anyone checked to see if @RussInCheshire is OK? #TheWeekInTory
RT @RussInCheshire: Boy, am I glad I waited until after 1:30 to do #TheWeekInTory

1. Let’s start with spindly, posturing mantis Jacob Rees-Mogg, who this week blocked a bill that spares…
RT @RussInCheshire: I would hate to ruin your weekend, so let's do #TheWeekInTory now, and get it over with.

1. Jacob…
It is not reasonable to expect the prime minister anything of this prime minister, not even that he understand or abide by the rules he came up with. #TheWeekInTory
