Accept your point of view, but it's a massive PR disaster for the Tories. For him to quit for your nearest rivals and say you don't care about public services and he should know because he's in one - how do you counter that argument? "He's wrong" - well, how exactly Rishi? He's been in your party throughout this parliament, he's sat in your meetings, he's listened to your policies. He's also worked in the NHS, seen how it's suffering and knows what you've done it. I'd say there's very few people better qualified to comment on the shitshow you're running than a doctor who's a Tory MP. Plus you don't turn down another vote on your side in the Commons. Majority reduces again by 2... GIVE US A FUCKING ELECTION RISHI!

Breaking News!

If his diagnosis for the Tory party of ‘cunts’ took Poulter four years to arrive at, I feel sorry for the patients he saw in Obs and Gynae. Patients would be fucking taking their kids to nursery before he noticed he had to deliver a baby. And yes, you sodding well do turn down that extra vote. The election is just around the corner and you’re letting in cunts who voted with the government all this time? It feeds into the (mostly but not 100% false) narrative that Labour are a little bit Tory. There’s speaking cautiously on policy to secure the centrist vote and then there’s letting in the cunts you should be opposing - that’s a perfect recipe for voter apathy.

It's an old person hotel, and they would play that song ad nauseam during breakfast and dinner. It's incredibly inoffensive in a bad way. When I hear it now I just imagine old ladies shovelling minestrone soup into their mouths.

More from Bev "His ability to speak is complicated by factors I can’t yet disclose. When the relative I’m in touch with visited him a month ago, he did not communicate with her. He is not ambulatory. I’m not sure for how long this will go on. He is not in pain. His eyes are open and he seems to be watching what’s happening around him."

Hospitalised .

Means she'll have outsold about 99% of the market though. The book industry has been strangled the last fourteen years.

Perhaps he doesn't want to cause a commotion.

You care so little of this forum that you actually spent a good few minutes typing all that out (even though none of us will read beyond the first 2 lines cos it's boring AF). I've said it before and I'll say it again – if you don't like it here then bugger off somewhere else.

Keith Wainwright, hairdresser who worked on Jarman films and did Toyah's hair for years, reportedly dead:

FFS what a shit show. A song that's not from the 00s (albeit a masterpiece), weak early offerings from Adele and Taylor Swift and that bloody indie ballad. Another great Rihanna offering gone, the iconic Empire State of Mind and don't get me started on La Roux. And now we've got to wait to start the grand final because we didn't end it 2 hours ago! Not impressed.

45 years ago today Blair Peach died at the hands of the police. Either you know or you don't. Look him up.

For anyone unfamiliar with the MLK conspiracy. William Pepper is featured in the video.

Death notice for Gordon Watts, BBC producer and editor probably best known for The Russell Harty Show and in particular That's Life: https://vancouversunandprovince.remembering.ca/obituary/gordon-watts-1089496963 Someone should let Esther Rantzen know...

Phil Richard died aged 52, he was from Swansea and was a weightlifter, he was world junior champion three times and masters champion on four occasions. Phil Richard: Campeão galês de levantamento de peso morre aos 52 anos - BBC Sport

Why wouldn't he be? It was reported earlier this year that he still watches the news.

I wonder if he's aware of Kissinger's death?

Don’t hold your breath.

As usual, interesting conversation occurs on my home Deadpool rather than anything here… —‘Wow, all five original members of the Moody Blues are gone. Pinder was the last of the group's original five members.’ —‘That leaves how many people who have ever seen a mellotron? Fripp is about it.’ —-a song offered to the group by Paul McCartney, but in the end decided the tune wasn’t right for the Moodys. Instead, Mary Hopkin recorded the song, “Those Were the Days,” and scored a worldwide smash hit.’ —“That’s amazing trivia. Can you imagine the path they would have taken if they sang Those Were the Days?” —‘Check this out... "On Christmas 1969, the President of Equatorial Guinea, Francisco Macías Nguema, had 150 alleged coup plotters executed in the national stadium while the amplifier system played the Mary Hopkin recording of "Those Were the Days"." —‘Never mind the fact that the litany of hits written by Sir Paul now includes this song. Who knew?’ —‘Death was imperative when he sang his version of Go Now.’ —‘Needless to say they’ll likely be on tour next summer.’ Deathlist used to have actual conversations like this but those days are long gone. RIP to Deathlist. SC
