The more things change…it’s like we’ve woken up and the Conservatives have had plastic surgery.
They’ve banged on about how bad the Conservatives were, now we have Mark II. Straight out of the gate
Pensioners in trouble because the red tape is so confusing it strangles their will to live.
We also have handout-gate. The football box I can understand, I get the security concerns. But surely Mrs Starmer can afford a few nice dresses? He doesn’t seem that badly off.
Why does he need to be gifted spectacles? To help him see that this is no way to gain the respect a PM needs to function?
Here’s to five more years of chaos.
Meanwhile
Sir Ed skims into the breach and onto the beach on a Jet Ski, thereby garnering more headlines and more attention for actual important causes. Also sounding like the only credible opposition. He would be a good choice. He seems to be fixed on the issues facing this country. Odd really.
Not sure we’re ready for him.
Sunak seems to have disappeared off the face of the earth, but Cleverly is sounding good. I don’t care who’s in front, he’s the one quietly impressing me. I think he may have the slight age advantage that will help him stand up to the nonsense around him. He’s edging towards those years where you’ve given too many s*its in your life, and now you see the dance for what it is. A distraction from getting on with living, and maybe leading.
I’ve not found a comfy tree outside his house yet, I need smooth branches, but what I have garnered through long range mics and binoculars is looking and sounding fairly ordinary. Which is a good thing in my book. His glasses look fine, but if he wins we may need to check who paid for them. Just to be sure.
Apart from that
Anyone suspicious of technology is heretofore no longer a looney. My heart goes out to the innocents standing near Hezbollah fighters though. I won’t even ask if a certain leader thought about that. Why waste your optimism on him?
A Proboscis Monkey has a nose like a man’s…erm…pride and joy, but so large most men will be demoralised for life. No gentleman, not your motorbike, think lower and less shiny.
Dolphins deliberately get high on puffer fish.
In Australasia rabbits climbed on the backs of sheep to escape floodwaters. When you think humans would probably have stepped on each other to escape, those sheep are pretty cool dudes and all sheep jokes should henceforward stop.
That’s it for today. My grandson is safely ensconced in school and all is right with the world.

P.S. Oh Lord he isn’t! He was under supervision. They found his supervisor handcuffed to a radiator with instructions on how to escape and a cup of water next to him. He’s nothing if not thoughtful.
