Many people like to take the p*ss out of McDonalds and big businesses, but they must actually be really hard to run smoothly. Remember the palaver last summer when McDonalds here in the UK ran out of milkshakes and some other soft drinks? The amazing thing is that they run so smoothly for so long, not that they occasionally get problems.
I expect the Russians to find it hard to reach the same 'uptime'.
Truss looks ill. Someone joked about her shitting herself on stage. It's not 100% guaranteed not to happen.

Nice for this to actually be discussed for once. I don’t agree with Rishi’s assessment of the BoE. It’s no good saying they’ve done a good job when inflation is at 10%.
Not like any other central bank is doing any better.
The Fed are least trying a bit. How far they go will be interesting.

The idiot Raab really did say all that nonsense about "enjoying the sunshine" tomorrow, didn't he? Granted, coming from the current Government it sounded plausible that it might be the case, but I nevertheless thought he might've been misreported.
God, enough morons are going to try to go out and sunbathe in it and end up dead or overburdening the hospitals, without senior members of the Government offering encouragement. Which part of the level four health warning ("illness and death may occur among the fit and healthy, and not just in high-risk groups") did he not understand?
oh calm down FGS
We are generally sensible people, but sadly there are plenty of idiots who think warn8ngs don’t apply to them, notably weather warnings. Hence people trapped in snow, washed away in floods and so on. No doubt that the extreme heat will pose challenges and it’s right to make people aware. However for many it will be something notable in their lives, not at health risk. And the sunny days, and particularly the mornings, have been amazing.

I see that his latest regeneration is here! Its a pity, as the new one will be in the same place as the old one but won't be talking about it as that gives the game away.
I was asked in a YouGov poll whether I'd support Boris being given a Cabinet post. I suspect it was bad news, as none of them put their hands up to say they would give him one.
Penny the most pathetic about it though, desperate to come in and try to explain herself (even though it was a hands up only question).

That's what I'm thinking, Keir is a very lucky man.
Badenoch doesn't seem particularly right wing on economics to me. Gove's a crafty fucker isn't he, backing Kemi who then leaps to Richi wjen knocked out dragging some erg over who might have been Truss voters. I assume that's his plan anyway

Oh dear Penny . Why on earth try to suck upto Bozo at this point .
It was a bit undignified. We know all of them (bar Tom) have been willing to talk him up, but she just seemed so terrified that MPs or members would think her a traitor for not wanting him in the Cabinet, unless she got in to explain.

The idea that Penny Mordaunt has a “possible conflict of interest” because her brother is an LGBT activist is rather regrettable.
Only if the reports of him being with her in the Commons and influencing her work are true. I don't know if they are or not. That's why I used the word "possible". But, as you know, it is important to avoid not just actual or potential conflicts of interest. But the perception of them. This is a critical part of what Ministerial integrity in the widest sense means.
It is why, for instance, the courts recently ruled that a trans activist could not sit on an employment tribunal deciding a case in relation to a woman disciplined for sending gender critical tweets. The perception of apparent bias was the key issue. And that matters with Ministers too. Especially when making decisions which inevitably involve balancing the rights of different groups and doing so in a way which does not breach the law.
I realise that these concepts have lately seemed rather a foreign concept to this government and far too manyMinisters in it. But aren't they supposed to be wiping the slate clean? So we can justifiably raise these issues, no?

Hello
Think what the Six Sean's special will be like, reuniting @SeanT, @SEANTHOMAS, @eadric, @LadyG, @Leon and now @Orka. Think how easily they could defeat the Woke Dalek working together!
Can we have Steven Moffatt write it though, not RTD. Because it would be too sickly schmaltzy otherwise.

An underhand lob to Tom about why he would be more honest than Boris.
Liz says what she thinks (except on tax, where she was supportive of the government approach, until now).
Also trying the old dodge of implying being a good presenter means you are bad, but admitting her lack of slickness. Unlike Casino_Royale I don't think it shows humanity, it's a trick.
Don't know how this is translating to polls but it is hilarious.
There was an AARP poll out yesterday that shows Oz six points behind. Worth noting that the AARP shows the Republicans doing very well in the Congressional ballot. So, it would appear that there are a meaningful number of Republicans that - for one reason or another - just don't like Oz.
I'd just like to point out that I am in fact the carefully constructed seventh sock-puppet of Leon, and I resent these interlopers pretending to be me pretending to be someone else, when I am that other fake person faking an identity, not some cheap fake. I hope that is clear.
Tugendhat dragging in the army again. Truss interestingly conceding she is not the slickest presenter, flipping it into "delivery" again. Badenoch and Rishi straightforward. Mordaunt boasting of her legendary video, hmm.

I would support putting Boris in a Cabinet, and then locking it.
Tom has mentioned Keir Starmer a couple of times - definitely looking further ahead than others.
Kemi fluid, but a bit arrogant to talk about taking decisions in government when she's been a junior minister for like 5 minutes. You can play the heavyweight or the fresh start, not both.

Oz is not a great candidate and it's not helped by the fact he lives in NJ.
Fetterman though has severe questions over his health. Still a question mark whether he pulls out or not.

The Liz line about duty to stay in post during a crisis is utter nonsense. She is saying that no matter what happens, no matter what a PM does, you can never resign? What a load of bollocks.

Badenoch/Tugendhat clash - unwise of her to let him in with the term "front line". Sunak pleasantly straightforward. Mordaunt again seems pleasant but waffly.

The format is a bit shit (I felt the intro was a bit Krypton Factor-y) but at least it feels like a different flavour and not a total re-tread of the C4 debate. But some of the questioning is a bit...indirect. Like, "I'll drop this clanger over here and see if anyone's stupid enough to pipe up".

Oz won nomination by inches, and has done little to nothing in reaching out to consolidate the GOP base, or anything else frankly.
Politico ran a story about this a couple weeks ago or so, in particular about Republican wise-guy angst about Oz's slow (rather nonexistent) post-primary campaign. Which is in stark contrast to Fetterman, even though HE is still recovering from his stroke.

Is there a string when makes her shit herself?
Whether they want to is another question.
ie Screw the unions - but she then backslid a bit!

She reminds me of the wet behind their ears Management Consultants that spout empathetic word salad as they hack into our services.

(Not like that)

= Kemi
- Mordaunt
+ Tugendhat but he's out the race

Fetterman though has severe questions over his health. Still a question mark whether he pulls out or not.
And the catharsis of spurious morality.
