Jolly good stuff.
The thing with this shit is not only the predictable one sided political slant, but it aint funny.
Mark Thomas is a very left wing, but he can actually tell a funny tale and has a self deprecating manner about individuals involved in the movements he has been involved with.
Cyclefree, I`m guessing. Meeks is my second guess.
They may be pissed off and angry at us for what we've done, but anger won't create a solution reaching a compromise will.
Many tories are already very unhappy with the party's attitude in the culture war, boats in the channel, civil liberties, lockdown, the economy and soon to come higher taxation. All they need is a powerful alternative with a well organised structure and an established political identity. They will punish Boris's ship of fools very severely.

They hadn't struck me as people whose company you'd seek out.....
The Tories will not even be able to consider EEA for a generation given how much of their support comes from hardline Leavers over 60 now
Our difficulties from No Deal will dissipate as we adapt, but their problems with the Irish border won't. If they want a deal, they will need to compromise.
Or they could choose to sit out and wait four years and hope that Labour wins the next election and reaches a quick agreement with them. But that leaves the Irish issue open and unresolved for years.
“Dominic,” I said, “everyone is coming to me with problems. And you come to me with solutions for problems that lie 20 years in the future. Your last solution to the Irish border was facial recognition for sheep. Can we sit down and concentrate on what the Gover likes to refer to as the here and now?”

... The Trump campaign isn’t subtle. In an ad over the summer titled “Break In,” an older white woman is watching news coverage about activist demands to “defund the police” when she spots a burglar scouting her home’s perimeter and begins to dial 911. As the burglar attempts to force his way in, we hear Sean Hannity’s voice coming from the television, talking about how Joe Biden is “absolutely on board with defunding the police.” Before the woman can alert the authorities, the intruder crowbars his way into the home. He approaches her, and, following an implied assault, the phone falls to the ground.
“You won’t be safe in Joe Biden’s America,” the screen reads...
Such unsubtle stuff seems to be of only limited effectiveness.
... The Post analysis couldn’t divine from the data a verifiable reason that Biden has a higher floor with white seniors against Trump than Clinton or Sanders did. Is it because he’s perceived as more moderate than the others? Because he’s a moderate white man? Because he says things, in the year 2020, like, “Look, the carny show’s gone through town once, and they found out there’s no pea under any of the three shells”?...
The EU have been desperate to weaponise Northern Ireland and exploit it in these talks since 2017. The UK has been weak for years under May and what the Government is doing now is no doubt playing dirty but that's what countries have to do sometimes. The EU was playing tough before us and playing dirty now levels the playing field.
I'm no fan of Manchester United but the Government's repudiation of the EU's weaponising of Northern Ireland, in dealing with the NI Protocol are like a political equivalent of this famous tackle by Solksjaer.

“Green aroma of disappointment” was excellent.

Unless course he finds an urgent appointment is Belfast.

Unfortunately, I was then able to read Telegraph articles.
Though none of it really fits if you look at it like that - Cummings' schemes are not, of course, invariably successful, and Johnson is rather less a dandy of questionable taste and rather more a sack of manure tied in the middle.
4D chess man...
Said Boris Johnson never.

Both my sons daughter 8 and my daughters son 11 have been told not to attend school due to colds.
The schools (different) both remain fully open
HYUFD would be my bet. Or possibly Big_G.
More of this to come when we exit the transition period ?
And Jonny Bairstow 6 for 101 no
Clearly @TSE , prevented by his 'legendary modesty' from taking the credit
I believe headteachers have been told that it will be week three that any school related transmission kicks in, but if it could be kept to 740 a week, and the partial closures keep the spread at bay, that would be fantastic. I guess we'll find out soon if that's the case, or this is just the start of things getting worse.
