Ah see I thought he came good in the end. Stavros was good and Elton was also pretty good. The rest was a bit meh. I genuinely don't get what anyone finds funny about Jo Brand. She's only ever had 3 gags and they were shit when she first started 30 odd years ago. At least Rosie Jones didn't do her N...

There were a few more lowlights for me. Jo Brand as funny as she ever was. Rosie Jones needs to get some new material as well.

That's not an argument - it's a fact.

No leader ever stands on the manifesto they win a GE on

No new leader can come up with a decent financial plan by the 31 October date for the statement - they'll have only a few days in the job to do so. So whoever wins is going to have to accept Hunt as chancellor and stick with the plan he's coming up with. It's entirely possible that the Tories could...

The biggest problem for the Tories at the moment is they just look like a divided party in turmoil. The only way you nip that in the bud is for them all to swallow their pride and get behind one candidate (probably Sunak), therefore don't go to the members. The best thing BoJo can do if he cares ab...

Well they'd have to find a new party leader first, at least.

Steve Baker accepted Krishnins apology. Then immediately called for him to be fired. https://twitter.com/gem_abbott/status/1582821823795712000?s=20&t=mJuAk8ISFQglKrChdyOfyA So yeah, typical Tory cunt. Seems fair enough to me tbh. The two things aren't mutually exclusive. And the irony of Guru-M...

But it's probably where it's likely to go. He's the only one arrogant enough and stupid enough to likely still want the job.

Don't be daft. Apparently Johnson might yet throw his hat in the ring as well

At what point can someone, anyone... step up and say "enough's enough" and force a general election? This is insanity. How does that happen though? Wouldn't it need a VoNC in the Gov't, which would mean Con MPs voting against their own Gov't (not impossible at the moment!). Unless there's...

Saying that, I don't know who I'd vote for.

And that's another issue. Not much of a democracy at the moment is it?

Who the hell would want the job now?

Politicians being politicians though, clearly someone will still be desparate enough. Which is not promising.

So is anything left of Trussonomics? Hunt's effectively panned everything. I can't see how she's staying.

A reminder that many SME directors pay themselves out of those profits. And before someone pipes up about that purely being a tax dodge it also ensures that there's flexibility when times get tough.

Ah great - let's go back to the idea of fvcking businesses. That's a great idea when you have a cost of living crisis and rampant inflation, when so many businesses are struggling to make ends meet and even stay alive. Would have made far more sense to bin the 1% cut to income tax threshold. Proof t...

I've ordered a proper new charger from Google as my old LG one's getting a bit tired now anyway. Pretty happy with mine so far. I've got a lot more playing about to do with it, as I've spent most of last night and some of this morning getting all the apps setup/signed in etc. Not played with the cam...

Ok Google-fuckers. It's requesting a Domain to connect to the wifi. It sems this is a bit of a porblem and has been since late 2020/beginning of 2021. What's the solution? A competent it dept? :lol: There are 4 people employed in this company, and not a single one would profess to being that IT com...

Got mine also. Not set it up yet as I don't know the wifi password at work

First thoughts - it's noticably heavier than my LG V30.
