Reading the vox pops on Jenrick from the BBC, and as usual they have one 'this is good', one 'this is bad' and one 'I hate politics,' which is a daft attempt at impartiality but very funny and they should do it for all things in my view.

Jenrick is the worst kind of charlatan so happily he's found a place where he belongs. The gall of the man to stand up in the country his party ran into the ground for 14 miserable years and go 'look at the state of this!'

All of the jokes about Jenrick and The Traitors are just too funny for me. I can't handle how original they all are.

Despicable stuff on Grenfell from Cleverly. He should read Show Me The Bodies by Peter Apps and then be asked about bonfires of regulation. This Labour government has been very disappointing but the fact that it removed people like this from office will always make it worthwhile.

Perri's saves are great but the kicking really can be embarrassing can't it.

Incredibly impeachable shit regardless of the fact that surely there are hardly any people in the USA who even want this as an outcome.

They should take the FIFA Peace Prize off him.

There is a Welshman on the new series of The Traitors that looks suspiciously like a slightly older version of Ben @threebeansaladpod.bsky.social. Is this Bonjamin in our midst? Should we be concerned?

24 books read this year, down a third on 2024 (new baby selfishly took up my time). Little new fiction - best novel I read all year was The Remains of the Day, hardly a hot take but it's a beautiful book. I would also recommend Challenger by Adam Higginbotham and The Searchers by Andy Beckett.

Heck of a career for the Stanimal. Lovely player to watch.

I keep coming back to this bizarre claim. What do they think the Labour Party is? When was at it best? When it couldn’t win a majority or hold power for more than a couple of years? When it was torn apart and almost wiped out? Deeply weird stuff

Ben looks like Richard Dreyfuss in Jaws.

Can I just shock you? I think public transport infrastructure is good and these people should fuck off.

There is nothing more British than a child telling you to fuck off. I hope they asked Ben how he gets his shirt so clean.

Zak Brown, a dickhead to the last.

Let's have a right good look at that skid plank Lando

The Sky F1 commentary just gets worse and worse doesn't it. Snide and smug even when Croft isn't getting stuff wrong.

Incredibly on brand for this title to be decided by Norris weakly limping to P3

Absolutely baffling decision not to start Tanaka. Farke always gonna Farke.

McLaren have finally managed to properly see off Piastri's challenge. If Ferrari ran a race like this we'd never hear the end of it.

Piastri such a terrific front runner when he's really on it. So glad he's found form again.

I ask again to rescind the constructors championship from McLaren for sheer stupidity.

It will always baffle me that F1 insists that the season closes out on these awful boring tracks.

One of the more embarrassing Ferrari sessions of the season and it's quite a smorgasbord to choose from.

TSUNODA FASTER THAN VERSTAPPEN STOP THE COUNT

Probably too little too late for Tsunoda but doing a really decent job today so far. Ultimately good drivers just get ruined in that car, time and time again.

Would love some in-depth numbers on what the majority of 20-30 somethings basically paying a 9% higher marginal tax rate has actually done to economic behaviour. Feels very under-discussed bsky.app/profile/igma...

The tone of an organisation is set from the leader on down, and the tone of Keir Starmer's leadership has always been 'say it if it is convenient'.

We should stop the boats because it's dangerous, and we should stop the scapegoating of immigrants because it's wrong and cruel. Controlled migration is good for the country, helps build our economy and diversity strengthens our communities. (1/6) 🧵

Absolutely despicable. The shame of this government, the goodwill they have pissed down the drain.

Absolutely insane shit here. You can make a case that Hamilton's been iffy, but to start popping off at Leclerc is ridiculous. 'When Ferrari is united, we get results' - not won a championship for nearly 20 years! www.bbc.co.uk/sport/formul...

Is it all Farke's fault? No. Does he make it better for himself? Absolutely not.

That's a horrible accident Bortoleto's had there.

Alan and Claudia walking down the stairs like a beautiful bride and groom.

Nothing gets you back into the leadership's good graces quite like trying to undercut their choreographed and clear attempt to change direction.

I am not hearing much from the ASI today about how train drivers and crew are all overpaid, workshy socialists.

Resurrecting my proud and longstanding tradition of not knowing what to say to children when they come trick or treating. Default response so far has been 'thanks.'

If Kate Garraway starts talking about sundried tomatoes at the Round Table then they should banish her for sheer madness.

Get rid of the whole genetic dickhead randomiser! www.newstatesman.com/politics/202...

No money in this country for literally anything, apparently, other than failed attempts to appease racists.

Bortoleto's such a lovely driver isn't he. Definitely a future race winner. Meanwhile I've not seen Hadjar on track at any point today when someone's not been hooning past him.

I cackled when Antonelli asked for Russell to be moved over, I cannot lie.

Stewards must have got the tequila out during the national anthem or something

"Promises were made, and lives and families built upon them. How have we reached a place where wrecking those lives is even up for discussion?" On Powell, Heath, Lam and the descent of the British right.

With the best will in the world, if you think this is going to happen why are you willing to give up a load of councils to Reform et al *before* doing something about it?

Piastri has just been a total non-feature all weekend hasn't he. Really disappointing.

McLaren trying to suggest the two guys with 650+ starts were driving like amateurs is absolutely sending me. They should rescind the constructors championship out of sheer cringe.

The combination of Austin hat and Austin shirt that the Racing Bulls drivers are wearing this weekend makes them look like hurricane victims wearing donated clothing.

I think they should also take away a letter of Prince Andrew's name every time another bit of new troubling information leaks. He doesn't deserve those letters. We can get him into negative letters by 2027.
