    Does that mean that France is a failed state like Scotland? Seems to be the new line taken by unionists these days.

    Meanwhile Nicolas Sarkozy, our favourite French tory, has been jailed for a year with another 2 suspended.

    Sounds like a joke but many a true word is said in jest.

    Such a major story. But even the Guardian has hidden that story in the civil service section of the website. You’re not going to find that without putting a ‘Hancock’ search in. There’s no doubt in my mind the editorial policy across all the MSM is not to rock the boat at the moment, national crisis etc. So they get off the hook.

    Never mind. There will be "large scale" enquiry, with "far reaching" powers headed by Lady Suchandsuch. It'll start around 2025 and Lord Hancock will have to give "evidence" of how great he was during the pandemic, then Lady Suchandsuch will resign from the enquiry around 2029 to be replaced by Lord Soandso and the findings will published around 2032 and nowt will happen.

    As long as it’s a ‘belt and braces approach’ that’s the main thing.

    I would actually shoot in the head whoever invented that phrase.

    Rishi Sunak channelling his inner John McDonnell. Universal credit gets the £20 extra uplift for another 7 months. With the tax rises and public spending increases this is effectively a Momentum budget.

    Meanwhile, Labour OPPOSES the Corporation Tax increase to 28%, which puts them to the right of the Tories fiscally, and also to the right of Joe Biden, who is also increasing CT to 28%. Apparently because corporation tax increases (on profits, remember, not turnover) will ‘force businesses to the wall’.

    Other policies include a new Poll Tax, invading the Isle of Man and bulldozing all allotments in the borough of Islington to the ground.
    It’s a confusing time

    Good call. You probably could throw him, actually.

    Johnson is only 5ft 8.

    With his hair he might have to be Snow White.

    Spending unleashed and a promise to use tax rises to pay for it afterwards, Keynes must be partying like it's 1936

    so, after a FOI by Martin Keatings, Johnson's jaunt to our country during lockdown cost up to £8,500, mostly for police overtime

    Police pay the price for Boris Johnson’s jaunt north in January | The National

    “On that basis I can confirm that the total recorded cost to Police Scotland for the Prime Minister visit on January 28, 2021 is £8497.55, of which £8431.25 relates to officer overtime.

    “You should however bear in mind that this figure may not be final as other costs could still be added to the relevant cost code.”

    It’s not even just daily resigning matters from the Tories now, it’s two or three a day.

    Johnson was quite right not to sack Patel, because if he had it might have undermined public confidence in the office of Home Secretary. He did it for us, see?
