It's also off air for the summer. Because nothing much is happening in politics at the moment...

I’m picking up the bouquet of complicated tax affairs, but nothing literal.

This is the lighting plot for when it was held in the concert hall I manage…

Fair point. I fear she has a right wing bias

You had the opportunity to drop an anvil on the guests and you did a drawing of the lighting rig instead

I actually remember watching it from the beginning in 1979 with Robin Day. Only four on the panel, got more time to develop an argument. Never watch it these days, panel entirely performative, audience recruited exclusively from UKIP.

Not sure about the last bit, but the rest checks out.

I haven't seen it in ages.

It's politics as a TV show. Can't watch it any more. A mass establishment illusion of 'giving a voice' to Colin from Cheltenham.

It's part of media strategies, compered by The Chosen.

Fuck it sideways, tbh.

I want to buy that woman a drink. Spot on she is.

 

[Nylock]

I remember the headlines surrounding youth club closures, the near obliteration of support services to vulnerable families and the selling off of public spaces (I.e. playing fields) to developers in the early years of the austerity coalition. Now these fuckers have the audacity to act all surprised that there's antisocial behaviour issues. Talk about being divorced from reality....

The Express was claiming, Bruce never let the vermin representative respond.

 

[sparkling]

Who was that Tory MP...such an embarrassment to human kind and didn't Emily T look smug at his worthless responses. He used his pen as his weapon of defence by keeping his head down and constantly scribbling notes.
