We loved Trev and Simon's shop based sketches - Ted and Eddie Kennedy, Dougie and Don Draper, Richard and Roger Roberts, and Jim and Tom Jones.
Jim and Tom Jones? Yes, Jim and Tom Jones the Chemists.
Here's the sketch from the duo's one-off Summer Special programme in 1995.

Diane Abbott makes the point that Keir Starmer knew about Louise Haighs conviction when he appointed her to his cabinet, so why is he throwing her under the bus now? #bbclaurak
Danny Antrobus retweeted
Louise Haigh was one of the only Labour ministers doing something worthwhile.
Who knows why her spent conviction suddenly re emerged, but needless to say Starmer allies will be delighted she’s gone.
Haigh already faced being purged for rightly slamming P&O Ferries.
BREAKING: Louise Haigh has resigned as transport secretary after @robpowellnews @alexrogerssky revealed she’d been convicted of an offence related to a mobile phone six months before becoming an MP. Says it was a ‘mistake’ & she’s sorry to leave under these circs, doesn’t want to be distraction

On the story of Labour urging inquiry on Lee Andersonms claim he was offered cash to join Reform, perhaps there shluld be inquiry too on Labour MPs being offered peerages to give up their seats so Labour leadership can bring in new blood.

This is Israel's finance minister advocating to "thin out" Gaza's population to halve it within two years.
Israel's leaders could not have been clearer about their intent, all the way through this horror.
That our media refused to frame their coverage accordingly is a scandal.

Palestinians held: 3,443
Jewish settlers held: 8
Now, ONLY Palestinians will be subject to detention without trial, in their own land, as illegal settlers terrorize them and steal their land. What’s it called when one group is subject to rules to ensure the dominance of another?

This was instantaneously my deepest fear as the news of the ICC arrest warrants came in. It is noticeable that as of January, at every move at the int'l justice level, there has been an immediate intensification of lethal violence against the Palestinians in Gaza. This also needs to be thorrougly investigated, Prosecutor @KarimKhanQC.

"That's an outrageous lie by Israel."
The ICC arrest warrant for Benjamin Netanyahu is "not anti-Semitic", says leading human rights lawyer and former UN war crimes judge Geoffrey Robertson KC.

I'd love to See Justice done here, & No one's more deserving of Comeuppance than Streeting.
However, Be prepared for a Fight, because everyone from the Electoral commission, the Labour Party, & UK Media will be doing what they can to bury & trivialise a mere complaint.
I have sent a letter of complaint this week to the Electoral Commission and Redbridge electoral services outlining serious irregularities on the night of the count on July 5th in Ilford North, raising questions regarding compliance with electoral law and guidance. I have retained Bindmans LLP and specialist King’s Counsel on this issue and have asked the Electoral Commission to examine the activities of Redbridge Council.

Me watching Wes Streeting get deposed by the Electoral Commission: Haha fuck yeah!!! Yes!!
Me seeing Wes Streeting appear as a guest on every single politics and daytime talk show for the rest of my life: Well this fucking sucks. What the fuck.

Literally, section 2 of the International Criminal Court Act places obligations directly on the Secretary of State.
If you can’t do your job and uphold the rule of law step aside and let someone who can do the job do it.
The Home Secretary — responsible for policing and arrests — claims here that it is not a matter for the … Home Secretary … as to whether Netanyahu would be arrested by British police.
@YvetteCooperMP — shameful, cowardly, embarrassing.

The best proof you're going to get that Kasparov is a complete fraud: the ICC decision is the exact contrary to what he's claiming, it's an attempt to save international law.
If they didn't act against what are some of the most blatantly condemnable actions by a state ever, international law and the ICC would lose all credibility.

Interviewer: Will Netanyahu be arrested if he comes to the UK?
Govt minister Yvette Cooper: "That's not a matter for me..."
"The UK is a signatory of the ICC, don't we have to respect its ruling?"
"... it wouldn't be appropriate for me to comment"

15,000 Jews live peacefully in Amsterdam, but suddenly, when some racist football thugs arrive, the city becomes 'antisemitic'.
Yeah that'll be it, Dave Rich...
