As I thought this morning, Humza Yousaf’s strategy to abrogate the Bute House Agreement would be as successful a strategy as Emperor Palpatine decision to allow the Rebel Alliance to know the location of the second Death Star. I always advise people to act modest and magnanimous at all times, acting arrogantly has a nasty habit of coming back and biting your in the nether regions because hubris and karma are such bitches. The way Humza Yousaf acted when Ash…
It’s been an exciting morning in Scotland with the First Minister abrogating the Bute House Agreement with the Scottish Greens. As noted in the Tweets above the Greens are very unhappy with this turn of events which explains why Douglas Ross has tabled a vote of no confidence, it is clear never annoy the Scottish Greens. Even if Yousaf wins the vote he will struggle to pass things like budgets, it is clear he is being advised the experts who…
I wonder if this attempt to belittle Rishi Sunak will backfire with below average height men. I know Angela Rayner would have been angry if Oliver Dowden had made a crack about her appearance. That said Dowden did come up with a great gag at Rayner’s expense which shows how vulnerable she is. TSE
You didn’t have to be the world’s greatest political strategist to know once SCOTUS overturned Roe v.

This is why Liz Truss remains a great lay in the next Tory leader/PM markets. I suspect those who would like her back is inflated by non Tories who want the Tories destroyed forever and see her return as the best to achieve that. Only somebody with a fetish for sadomasochistic pain, punishment, and humiliation would want to see Liz Truss back as Tory leader/PM. TSE
The first kick I took was when I hit the groundEnd up like a dog that’s been beat too much‘Til you spend half your life just to cover it up, now… …Down in the shadow of the penitentiary This polling is a damning indictment on the American legal system. A key figure is the plurality of Independents who think Trump is guilty. TSE
American think tank and pollster the Pew Research Centre have conducted some actual pew research. One in five respondents said they visited church recently but other data says that is more like one in twenty. In my humble opinion one of the reasons we have regular polling failures on both sides of the pond is that people give duff answers, particularly if it makes them look bad, God botherers are no different to the rest of us. Some people pretend…
