Jockistan.

Just when you think your searing hatred of The Sun can't burn any hotter, the Paedo's paper turns its guns on Scotland.

 

That bit's from 2016, sounds like a Kelvin Mackenzie guest column. England should be encouraged to think this way.

Andrew Neil's continued breakdown at getting kicked off his telly show is wonderful spectating.
He's rich as all hell, lives in France mostly, married to a wid he has no business being married to and spends all his time 'owning' folk on twitter instead of doing what any of us would do if we were rich as hell, lived in France and married to a wid we had no business being married to.
Drinking wine in the other room?

Looks like he's going to try getting his revenge, he retweeted this article. Going for the BBC Chairman gig versus Charles Moore, can't think who would be worse, I think Moore shades it.

Not bad for a guy who started off reporting Saints games for the Paisley Daily Express!

Colonel Ruth & Rychyrd Lynyrd  competing to be the least competent opposition leader at FMQs - with RL winning by a margin. 
For Davidson to open with the EXACT same question as last week to unsurprisingly be met with the same answer is pathetic on her part. What did she expect and she seemed surprised at the response and had very little in reserve as a comeback. She strikes me as someone simply going through the motions.

I still think RLs performance, leading with his chin and getting caught out on the issue of what powers reside with which parliament was bordering on incompetent - that said he seems to be tacking to the right in the hope of pleasing Starmer & keeping the "branch job".

The £2t figure isn't really accurate. The UK owes around 750b of that to itself...

Neither is GERS so we can probably safely bin both. The better question is "what level of debt can a country sustain" given that we're in a world where debt is common and understood.

In the past I think a figure of 5% or less was always considered sustainable. Post covid when most major economies will be reporting deficits many many multiples of that, I expect economic theory will be changed to suit the new reality.
