Oh the irony, if Williamson's own degree at Bradford got the chop. But people like him don't care - their ideology trumps any sense of fairness and they very quickly pull the ladder up after them. The end justifies the means. theguardian.com/education/20… theguardian.com/education/20…

Good job nobody connected with the Tory party broke lockdown measures Andrew, and that you're not a Leicestershire MP, or that would make this a self-own.

Labour Leicester Mayor who broke the lockdown repeatedly is again undermining measures to suppress the virus, when almost 5% of residents tested positive. Perhaps he’s keen to get the city and his abysmal record out of the media spotlight, no slaves here, business as usual?

This. Which is why none of Jacob's hedge funds have moved to Ireland to remain in the EU.

Propelled to power by ignorant bellows of “You lost, get over it!” Boris Johnson is already reduced to sacking a colleague for winning an election. The Emperor’s naked buttocks are now perilously close to the nation’s nose.

Number 10's claim that the removal of Whip was for disloyalty made me choke on my breakfast strawberry granola. How on earth did disloyalist to his wives, mistresses, children, employers, colleagues and electorate de Pfeffel sign up to that statement . . . ? – at Sheffield, England

I would have thought Mourinho's response would be: I expect the editor to accept all my papers, accept them as they are submitted, and publish them promptly. I also expect him to scrutinise all other papers with the utmost care, especially those of my competitors. Earl H Wood.

This is a massive scandal, perhaps the biggest so far under this government. The secret, under-the-counter contracts given to really weird companies to deliver PPE and other pandemic services. It needs more exposure. Please RT and circulate. Thanks. theguardian.com/commentisfre…

Contracts worth billions have been handed out by a government willing to brazen out disgrace until outrage subsides, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

The tragic irony of UK blue passports being produced by a Franco-Dutch company and printed in Poland that cannot be guaranteed to be imported into the UK because a no deal Brexit means that no trade agreement will be in place to allow the blue passports to enter the UK.
Does anyone know what's up with google? I'm just doing my regular 6am Churchill search and all its coming up with is this.

I will never be anything other than proud that I voted remain and against the Tories, particularly against this Johnson govt. Yes, I lost every time. But my conscience is clear. My votes are not responsible for any of this tsunami of shit.

At some point I hope that there will be some recognition that all of the people who said that leaving the EU would mean additional cost and bureaucracy for businesses were right and those who spent the past years peddling fantastical solutions that don’t exist were not.
