If it was say Sajid Javid defecting, a long-standing and fairly solid Minister and Conservative, I’d have said that was a coup. That’s like Koeman signing Pelle or VVD. Let alone a Jeremy Hunt, very effective across several of the main Whitehall Depts. But Braverman? That’s signing Ravel Morrison. Badenoch was bit out of the order with the jibe, but clearly she reckons Suella is a liability and even Truss couldn’t wait to get rid of Leaky Sue. Sunak did so as soon as he thought she’d skewered herself. Her record as Home Secretary was appalling, worst ever, leaving record AS case backlogs. Jenryck didn’t help with all of the dodgy hotel deals as Immigration Minister. He didn’t hold any of the really high offices. Ambition and track record are divergent. Sleaze on toast as well https://www.lettingagenttoday.co.uk/breaking-news/2024/07/controversial-ex-housing-secretary-to-run-for-conservative-leader/ Kruger is a fundamentalist loon, Dorries is a piss artist, and Sarah Pochin really doesn’t like those black and brown faces.

I don’t disagree with much of what Rutte has said there. Europe has needed to build up with Russia becoming more a direct threat this decade, and Trump had a point about spending per GDP. That doesn’t meant that Trump wasn’t an utter cunt about the Afghan troop remarks and make murder of his own citizens abhorrent. Those two perspective confidently co-exist.

Although Jones (Bree) and Martin (Downes, Manning, Fraser and Wood) must have had a say in those signings.

The only surprise this time was that she took so long, given the constant rumours in autumn 2024. Trying to claim Suella as a coup is a bit like Wolves unveiling Mario Lemina and praising his PL experience and great professionalism and attitude shown at Saints…. That said, Badenoch screwed up with the mental health jibe in the original PR. Had to from her as well going by rumours of their first shadow cabinet in opposition.

Absolutely appalling and needless, 100% Trump and his hangers on’s fault. Here, it would be an offence to carry a gun anywhere but their constitution is very clear regardless of what Trump’s flunky says, whether I agree with the second Amendment or not (which I don’t). He’s seen Putin murder his citizens domestically and all over the world and thought ‘hey, that’s a good idea’. Once he’s been out of office/dead, I can see a series of trials taking place a bit like after WW2 in Germany for all of these murders.

Well done Leo, those cunts deserved that. Well done Flynn for putting one on their arse as well right next to the inbreds.

Two sensible Conservatives putting Badenoch on watch. Understandably so. If you want hard right, white nationalist populism, you’ll pick the full fat option https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c93v7nnk3vlo I’m quite happy with the Lib Dems personally but I’m probably in these two’s target demographic.

If there was a visual metaphor for Portsmouth, that’s as close as you could get.

Can’t fault the effort but a missed opportunity when leading and heads went down after the silly equaliser (with foul and handball). Point more useful for them. At least our fans had the Leo goal and made lots of noise. Plod delighted at the result.

Had a good game until that point, was a foul as well. All the defence and keeper have responsibility there to get it clear and block their runners in. Didn’t do their basic jobs.

Heads have gone down after the mistake. Get out of here with a draw but needs an older head to take the armband until the end of the season before the transfer window closes.
