Spin this!

Our beery prime minister and his stooges keep claiming they’re going to grow the economy. But they spend most of their time talking it down – so much so that economic growth has stalled.
    We’re back to the good old days of 1984 and doublethink.

Blank Screen

Q: What do you do when your Virgin TV connection stops working?
A: Start hoping the buggers will fix it in time for you watch the end of the programme you’ve been watching for 25 minutes.

Positive Spin

That was extremely cute – pointing out that our British Navy isn’t contaminating the atmosphere with greenhouse gases because most of it isn’t doing anything but lurking around in naval bases and not going to sea.

Safe bet

What are the odds against our government going after the cash if the German goverment sends unwanted migrants to facilities in Rwanda paid for by British taxpayers?
    A million to one?
    A billion to one?
    After all, it’s only our money, and we have lots more for this rotten government to steal.

That should work

Is our beer-guzzling prime minister going to let the NHS die by leaving it in the charge of the idiots running it? No, he’s going to save it by banning junk food advertising on TV.
    What planet is he from?
    It certainly isn’t Earth.

Whizz Day

The Sun is shining and my Virgin Media broadband is delivering a reasonable speed. All the soggy tunnels must have dried out.

Transient Aspiration

The things you see on the WWW! Someone with an obviously phoney handle was claiming to be in touch with an assassin on the dark web and wanting help with quote ‘taking out the most deserving of Starmer’s ministers’ unquote.
    When I went back for another look at it half an hour later, the post had gone. It would be really great if it was because someone had scared up the cash shortfall. But, sadly, life ain’t like that.
p.s. I wonder who he/she had in mind?
