Congratualtions Keir Starmer

[Bentley Bullet]

I thought Starmer was hardly a bear trap. A bear grills far more convincingly than that.

Yes, I've noticed Starmer does that, especially when he's out of his depth, like when he's in the House of Commons.

''Inside Keir Starmer’s office, jubilant aides described Boris Johnson’s rant at prime minister’s questions as his “Kevin Keegan moment” – when the drip-drip of sleaze stories seemed to have finally rattled him''

Johnson had totally lost control by the end of PMQs. His final answer was a barely coherent scattergun rant in which (and I shit you not) he went off on one saying that Brexit had helped him stop the European Super League. Not a good sign to show that your opponent has got under your skin.

‘Inside Kier Starmer’s office...’

Sounds like. 70s’ gay porn film. But that’s not how you spell orifice.

The question is whether Johnson was flustered because he knows he's in trouble or he's angry because he thinks he's not. Equally he may genuinely think it's a non issue.  Either way the optics for him are not good.

It was an open goal for starmer and perfect for him as that questioning is his strength undoubtedly and he stepped up to it.

Whether he has enough about him to succeed in a long campaign is questionable but his questioning yesterday was spot on.

I heard Starmer is applying for the Rovers managers job and is building up a dossier of sleaze on fellow applicants for his CV as we speak.

There's £50 for the food bank going begging if you are brave enough to back yourself in bb

Christ, there's no wonder Johnson was in such a foul mood yesterday. Imagine your missus insisting on spending money you haven't got, to make THIS monstrosity!

That's not actually what she created but it is the work of her favourite interior designer.

£850 a roll, gold leaf wallpaper though. It sounds very much like the sort of thing your typical Saudi royal would go for or Donald Trump and his missus.

Apparently she could not live in a John Lewis hell... At least JL advisors will apply some simple design principles to their work.

Perhaps by the Daily Mail who published the picture in an article about the Downing St refurb but didn't make it clear enough that it wasn't the actual job.

Not nearly as strange as how some folk cannot, not even subconsciously, read a light hearted quip using a play on words without then using it as a personal dig.

I’ll lend you my Vic and Bob DVDs if you like. I’m sure that’s where I first heard the office/orifice (snigger) quip.

[BillyStubbsTears]

It was a light hearted response Belton, not a personal dig.

I drew his curtains once during a coaching session.

[belton rover]

Accepted, Billy. My mistake.
You need to work on your light hearted quips though.
Even when I read it in Joe Pasquale’s voice, it sounds like an unfunny dig.

  There are currently 32 cases against Labour Lord mayors and councillors ongoing that the main stream media are unable to talk about and give publicity to due to the on coming local elections and bye election, most due to inappropriate miss use of funds.

So how do you know about them then selby?  Oh, it must have happened in a dream.

Everything sounds unfunny in Joe Pasquale's voice.

Try Stuart Lee's next time you're thinking of me.

[belton rover]

Now you’ve got me using autosuggestion again. I’ll keep this one to myself though.

 Somebody phoned up about them on the radio, and was instantly told that yes they know about them and normally they would be news worthy but under broadcasting rights it is illegal for a period before elections to discuss.
  There you go get with it.

[selby]

Doesn't seem to bother the BBC (Brussels Broadcasting Corporation) though.
