He's not going to say "no" is he? The embarrassment to Sunak outweighs the fact that she's useless. It's only until the Autumn anyway, then they can select their own candidate. Personally, although I'm happy to see the Tories humiliated, I do think that there should be a by-election when this happens.

The most generous estimate for each Rwanda deportee is around £150000. Then there is the £490 million that we'll be paying over the next 3 years. You can see why Rishi thought that it was bad idea when he was Chancellor.

Also the patron saint of the City of Moscow and, rather strangely, his protection was invoked to ward off Plague, Leprosy, Syphilis. and various skin diseases.

I'm in Block 16 so I'll also be in the Kids Zone. One option is to move into Blocks 17 - 21 but presumably a lot of the people from 22 - 28 (the new away seats) may also want to move there. I don't think that many of the current Chapel and Kingsland residents will want to stand as they tend to be a bit older.

You think that racism should be beyond satire?

That game brings back memories in that it was the first game that I took my 7-year old son to. Seven goals, a penalty and a 90th minute winner from Matt Le Tiss. He loved it, although I warned him that not every game was like that. However, he stuck with it and now takes his lad to St Marys (if it's not school the next day).

Apparently his contract specifies a 12-month notice period. Could SFC enforce this? More likely to use it as a bargaining tool.

Last season we had a net spend of £121m. Brighton spent £74m, Bournemouth £73m and Fulham £42m. The problem was that the first lot of expenditure in the September window was spent on mainly poor players, presumably on the advice of Mr Ankersen.

Good to see that the fit-and-proper person test is working well.

It was amusing listening to Mark Harper being questioned by Nick Ferrari about 30p Lee. He was asked about 5 times if Anderson's remarks were Islamophobic or racist but just kept repeating that they were "wrong". Like Dowden the day before he couldn't actually say what was wrong about them.

How are the away fans who come by train going to get back to the station? Are they going to use Chapel Road, through St Marys churchyard and make their way across the parks? A good few thousand home fans use that route back to town or to the Ocean Village area so there could be problems there.

I don't remember any great pressure for him to go. Maybe a bit of a victim of his own success in finishing 7th the season before. When he did go where was a hope that we could get Redknapp, who was making a bit of a name for himself at Bournemouth, with Jimmy Case as player/assistant manager. Instead we got Branfoot whose first act was to show Jimmy the door.

This is worth a watch.. Very articulate and interesting character:

Do you think that he had a wet-nurse? Probably still has one.

Just been confirmed.

You can park on Town Quay. I think it's about a fiver for 4 hours. The Platform had a fire last year but has now re-opened. Town Quay bus:

Kingswood by-election today. The Reform Party candidate is one Rupert Lowe.

JWP not having a very good time against the Gooners. Not sure if he touched the ball more than 2 or 3 times in the first half.

Generally, in this country we have policing by consent, ie most people obey the law. If enough people break the law the police are pretty powerless. If, on a march of say, 20000 people, 80% of them wore masks, what would happen? Maybe a few token arrests but each person detained has to be taken to a Police station and processed which takes manpower away from the march. It's totally unworkable and I'm sure that the police aren't particularly interested in enforcing it.

Well, incidents of Rickets, malnutrition and Scurvy increased sharply last year, so he's definitely making progress. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/health/victorian-disease-gout-rickets-vitamin-d-mumps-scurvy-measles-malnutrition-nhs-hospital-admitted-a8795686.html

I see that, out of the 5000 immigrants that were listed to go to Rwanda before the courts stopped it, 4300 have "vanished" and the Home Office have no idea where they are.
