I see Boris's new Director of Communications has declared that his boss 'isn't a complete Clown'
https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/p...clown-26160641

Well work harder and he might make the Big Top yet... Its good to have a dream
Wasn't John Major's dad a clown or something circusy at least

Sounds like Boris's lot will be all right, then. Just the team having a work break with some alcohol.

Not sure if it triggers me, it's more out of morbid curiosity. It currently seems little more than a whinge channel but it does at least highlight the effort needed to go into making quality news programming and how effortless Sky and others make it appear.

It’s funny the number of basic errors GBN was making in many technical areas early on (I assume they finally fixed these) when almost anyone forced onto Zoom during the pandemic could have warned them about lighting and dodgy clashing backgrounds and any YouTuber could have taught them a thing or two about audio sync issues and how to avoid them.

I do get the fascination of the train wreck though. That’s why I’m permanently amused by the Labour front bench (and now the Tory one also).

Re: All those No.10 lockdown parties


I'm now liking GB News.

As to the No 10 parties, if Boris is still PM when he gets his penalty notice, it'll quickly brew up and probably stay up.

He's broken all his important promises to the country and whatever he has done to his credit is now used up.

How so? He has achieved Brexit, he had to deal with an unexpected pandemic that nearly killed him and the bulk of the manifesto is still ‘to do’, delayed by Covid.

Clearly, he’s getting on with the health and social care issues now and starting off the levelling up agenda. To be fair, he’s broken his tax pledge, but I’m sure most right thinking people will acknowledge that Covid is responsible for that.

Which promises were you referring to that have been ‘broken’?

Re: All those No.10 lockdown parties

So now we have a Ministry of BOGE, which has various entries at Urban Dictionary, though perhaps the most worrying is to fail to do something you previously promised you would.
