Apparently our new heath secretary is reportedly stunned by NHS failings. One wonders what rock he’s been hiding under? The general public left stunned behind a decade ago.
Far right candidates are mainly standing for Conservative leader, so that’s not news. Nor is it great. They all seem to have to be so pushy!
When you declare yourself to be far right it seems that you have to prove you’re the toughest talking cookie in the western hemisphere. People don’t like that and I can’t see the UK taking it.
The death knell would be uniting with Farage. The truth-bending Brexit weasel. Uri Geller can’t do with a spoon what he can do with the truth!
He’s buggered off to America for some inexplicable reason, thus demonstrating clearly that what’s going on over there trumps his new constituency. He finally won his first seat, much more of this and it will be his last. We can but hope.
It’s one thing to be a good orator, but a bit of truth and commitment gives your words more weight.
Biden is poorly, Trump is rambling, there’s been a computer glitch affecting millions, Truss still thinks she’s right, and we don’t have Gareth Southgate to steady the ship and give us hope.
I’m divorced, my grandson’s headteacher has resigned with PTSD, Strictly is putting the finishing touches to our faith in the BBC, and Starmer and Sunak appear to like each other.
The Queen is 77 with no thought of retirement, imagine! I hope she likes her job. Me? I have to retire I can’t be climbing trees at 96 trying to get scoops.
I am hoping they won’t raise the retirement age to 80 in the next decade or I’m screwed. Make you work longer, pay more tax, then tax your pension. What the heck I’m screwed anyway.
One thing I’m sure about though, the loss of a decent man like Southgate as the face of England on the world stage is a complete disaster.
Mind you, the Conservatives have a vacancy coming up. Imagine! Quietly spoken. Respectful. Known for his decency. A defender not an attacker. A tad too cautious in some eyes, but for a world leader that can be a good thing.
“Let’s crash the stock market!”
“Let’s stop and think about that for a moment shall we?”
What’s not to love?
Yours, Clarence
Promise I’ll get funnier when they start getting interesting.
