Reduced Peril on the Sea

The government has been shamed into booting the Coastguard Agency’s management up the bum and forcing the blighters to drop a shameful plan to stop paying volunteers for training and call-outs.
    The ill-considered and self-harming scam is now history.

Today’s Thought

“Football Unites The World”, FIFA claims. But the slogan doesn’t go far enough, having missed “In Indifference” off the end.

● It’s all about the money, really. We do know that.

Another tariff

President $thump has taken a break from bombing Iran to threaten Canada with penalties for letting smoke from its wildfires drift over the border to the Untied States.
    Canadians who helped to tackle wildfires in California are not impressed by the lack of reciprocal aid.

Canny shopping

Looking for value for money from a box of chocs? Avoid Black Magic. £2.58 per 100 grammes versus £1.78 for something like a pack of Celebrations. A fancy box is no substitute for chocs!

Our Pretender Fantasist wants a death tax to buy benefits votes. Mahmoud, had she been made Chancellor, would have dug her fist into pensions like Gordon F. Broon. And there will be other scams in the same vein to follow. No doubt about that.

Doing a good job

Tory leader Mrs. Badenuff has joined the ranks of record setters with a positive approval rating of +3. Bier Smarmer remains at the bottom of the heap with -42, up from -51 last November. Bets are already being laid on when Jonah will beat that.
