Starmer's going to the World Cup final, the jammy sod.

The cooling system was installed by the village AC technician, Thermodynamix 😊

Have they double checked this?

The heat is getting to me because for a moment I couldn't parse the logo at the end of this video and then my brain went, "Oh, it's a Big Apple!"

What’s remarkable about all this stuff is the stolen valor. You didn’t build shit, you won a birth lottery. You are a podcaster not Emperor Vespasian. bsky.app/profile/just...

"And you have the punishment-body relation. It's not what it was. Not violent, it used to- but not anymore. Guys come up to me - big, strong guys, bad guys - and say, 'Mr President, I'm constrained within an economy of suspended rights.' Can you believe that? But you have to get tough on crime."

What's funny is that this person has taken the common misunderstanding of Toni Morrison's description of Bill Clinton as America's "first black president" and just blithely adapted that to Burnham.

Unfortunately, he continues to be very funny.

"... educational questions survive only as shadows cast by financial projections." 🔥

The great thing about being a Labour minister is that if you do your job badly everyone gets mad and if you do your job well everyone gets mad.

You know, he was really on to something.

My plan is for us to Con Air our way out of this heatwave.

📣 People are understandably up in the arms about this (it is horrible). But just want to wave a hand out there 👋 as we're going through the same thing in Humanities at Northumbria (1 out of 5 staff need to go by end of July). 1/?

Learning that a Magnum is the nation's favourite ice lolly but also that we don't think a Magnum is an ice lolly is the closest I've come to accepting the "Is Britain ungovernable?" discourse.

The government has once more declared war on the labour market. The beatings will continue until morale improves. www.gov.uk/government/n...

A statement from Exeter UCU branch @ucu.org.uk - please share far and wide.

Just absolutely horrible. We're all precarious now.

"If Andy Burnham can hit that bullseye, the rest of the dominoes will fall like a house of cards. Checkmate."

Going to need some more detail on the US Catholics who answered "Never heard of Pope Leo."

Hello Nigel, this is your lawyer speaking. I am advising you today to please keep saying this.

"Westminster is a Halloween party. Unfortunately, Keir Starmer arrived for a grown ups drinking wine party but it turned out there was more of a babadook vibe."

The algae wasn't created by anyone. It's a self-made chlorophyta, a very American success story, a Horatio Algae if you will.

This one just lives on my desktop at this point, ready to go

Wow, he's just like me.

Britain about to get its seventh Prime Minister in ten years. I can’t say I’m surprised. As a people they’re often wonderful of course—very musical, for example, many charming customs, and always joking around in their quirky way—but they just don’t have the temperament for stable self-government.

If Andy Burnham becomes PM days before England win the World Cup, it would finally confirm that he'd somehow got hold of Starmer's genie.

They look like the mismatched detectives leading ITV's latest crime drama.

And we're still only two-thirds of the way through Boris Johnson's decade in power.

"We proved the doubters wrong because we showed that my Labour Party could face God and walk backwards into hell."

In retrospect, I don't know why I thought this would happen.

the most stable figure in british politics in the last decade is the man who sets up the lectern the PMs resign from

This might look daft in an hour, but my prediction is Starmer is going to come out and challenge Burnham to a game of ring toss. One throw, and if he gets it over the Downing Street chimney, he stays as PM.

The Liz Truss line will never stop being funny.

Looked this up and I'm disgusted to report that, somehow, documented Japanese history has been Woke this whole time.

Tfw you're planning a dignified exit but feel a solemn responsibility to first inform your important geopolitical ally, the Worst Man in the World Who Can't Keep His Big Mouth Shut.

Did she just not check the by-election result before writing this?

"He led an amazing life. What else can you say? He was an amazing prime minister for just about two years or whatever. Whether you agreed or disagreed. I'm actually sad to hear that."

The New York Times:

Absolutely the most interesting thing I’ve read on Burnham. First rate.
