Meanwhile, today is Groundhog Day in the United States, as made into a film starring Bill Murray.

The tale of an ambitous cynic who gets stuck in a time loop which causes him to believe that his actions have no consequences, the Mandelson scandal is likely to be the top story on tonight's news.

Phil: Do you ever have déjà vu, Mrs. Lancaster?
Mrs. Lancaster: I don't think so, but I could check with the kitchen.

In the original script, Bill Murray was stuck in the time loop for 10,000 years.

I can’t remember - do we know how long he is stuck for.

It is the source of much internet discussion, but there is no definitive answer.

Hiowever, nobody -I think- has suggested 10,000 years. 10,000 days perhaps, but not years.

The director said it was 30-40 years, in the actual film, as shot. IIRC

Wonderful to speak with my dear friend President Trump today. Delighted that Made in India products will now have a reduced tariff of 18%. Big thanks to President Trump on behalf of the 1.4 billion people of India for this wonderful announcement.

When two large economies and the world’s largest democracies work together, it benefits our people and unlocks immense opportunities for mutually beneficial cooperation.

President Trump’s leadership is vital for global peace, stability, and prosperity. India fully supports his efforts for peace.

I look forward to working closely with him to take our partnership to unprecedented heights.'

People have estimated the time based on the events in the film, and it's lots...

Apparently the aforementioned groundhog (known as Punxsutawney Phil) has decreed six weeks more of winter in his part of North America and to be honest in the 18th Century that was about the best weather forecast available.

In the 21st Century there is finally some warmth coming to the east of North America at the end of the week after a long cold period.

Jenrick: "Mandelson has clearly broken the law [he] stands now accused of serious misconduct in public office and should be tried for his offences"

At no point am I defending Epstein, but I am old enough to remember when Robert Jenrick used privileged information to save Dirty Desmond £50m in taxation to poor as a church mouse Tower Hamlets Council.

I meant Mandelson but being as they appear interchangeable I won't apologise for my Freudian slip.
