also worth noting that Mahmood is jetisoning all Labours other voters to keep 1 group happy, the group that hate Labour & will never vote for them.

ICE style enforcement gangs. Mass deportation. Removal of our human rights framework. Scrapping of the Equality Act.
By racist, misogynistic, disability-sceptic, transphobic authoritarians and simpletons.
Nothing could be more threatening to us all. It’s shameful that they hope it’s a vote winner.

These people are poison. They will unleash racist thugs on the streets of this country and call it security. They will subjugate us to the US and call it patriotism. They must be stopped. There is no more important task in politics.

It would take an immediate 180 on the immigration rhetoric, stamping down on foreign funding and interference and pushing the good stuff that they are doing that people will start to feel. They need to get a grip of OFCOM/OFWAT etc and get peoples energy bills down. That would probably save them.

I would hope it would give the Labour party a wake up call to stop trying top out-Reform Reform, which is clearly failing and work hard to get their core vote back before its too late. A Labour win will be used as a validation of the current approach and a reform win will make it even worse.

He had a easy silver medal there until he got distracted.

One lesson from the Epstein–Mandelson affair is that we need to stop routinely rehabilitating political careers after serious scandals.

When politicians knowingly engage in grave ethical wrongdoing, that should permanently end their political careers. Being "talented" should not override that.

There is a line in one of the Yes Minister Series where they are talking about a leak from the top and Bernard says - "that's one of those irregular verbs - I give confidential briefings, you leak, he is being charged under Section 2 of the Official Secrets Act"

If anyone needed proof we are no longer a serious country the coverage of that chess thing has got to be it.

The fact after watching landings on 4 beach heads in Normandy they thought they were a diversion shows how effective the deception was. They were getting detailed reports from double agents backing up the fake comms and inflatable tanks which probably made a huge difference.

The funny thing is they make out its something new - 30 odd years ago my brother worked part time at Woolies when he was doing his A levels and he was in on double time on Boxing Day putting out Easter eggs.

RAF did that in Germany during Cold War. Phantom shot down a Jaguar during an exercise. They always flew with live weapons and something went wrong with the drill. After a panicked radio call I think the Jag pilot ejected before the Sidewinder got to him.

I had this issue and got a little usb WiFi dongle that fixed it. Have you tried the drivers? Something like this www.googleadservices.com/pagead/aclk?...
