    Dare was a song that I only discovered through this game but it was an answer on Richard Osman's House of Games the other week. Interesting result. Which one of you is Damon Albarn?

    I am extremely cynical about Rishi's HS2 announcement. Especially the plans to spend the same amount of money on 'Transport Projects' benefitting the North of England He knows he will never have to deliver this because he knows he will be out of a job at the next election and then he will leave Labour with the prospect of having to resurrect the whole HS2 extension (which the Conservatives will be able to point to as wasteful) or deliver a meaningful Northern transport policy alternative The whole conference seems to have been a chance for them to show off to the entire country how vile they are on the off chance of making Mark Francois jizz himself in a patriotic hate filled orgasm

    Abercrombie & Fitch are a significant player in the fashion industry. This is exploitation in the same way that under paying workers in developing nations is exploitation. Journalists don't know where their stories will take them. It is also important in the narrative that if you are rich and powerful you cannot behave as though the law does not apply to you.

    He assumed office on 25th October. The years grace is up at that point and letters into the Chair of the 1922 committee can be counted. However if you were a potential leader in waiting would you want to lead the Conservatives into the next General election within 14 months and potentially be just another former Prime Minister. If I were a Tory hopeful I would probably plan my campaign to be leader at the 2029 election so sometime in 2027 would be the best time to make the move

  24. My opinion (fwiw) is that he was included for the round. If his behaviour warrants a further ban then this should be for future rounds of the games but I am not the game runner

    I am not a huge KM fan. I think she has managed her career very well and always comes across as likeable. However, Can't Get You Out of my Head is by far and away her most iconic track and deserves the plaudits here. it is the only KM track that has made it onto my ipod
