Gross Grab

Juvenile doctors are offering the Israel/US war with Iran as their reason for the latest strike.
    The inflation resulting from the war means that they need 26% more, not the 7.1% on offer.

Self-interest

Reform UK has decided that it needs pensioner votes. Thus, after much argy-bargy, it has decided to retain the Tory Triple Lock on pensions (just as some Tories are going floppy on it), which Labour wants to bin to pay bigger bribes to its many benefits customers.

No rush

The coppers and public sector officials who ignored and covered up grooming gangs will be exposed by an inquiry, which will cost £65 million. And report . . . in a decade or two?
    More like a flickering candle than the Home Sec.’s ‘laser focus’.

All in

Senile doctors are threatening to join their juvenile colleages on strike. The BMA is giving them a vote over a pay offer of 8.5%. They want 38%.

Today’s other questions

1. Is it possible for President Thump to lose control of the Iran war if he never ever had it?
2. How many people will believe it when he claims victory; that’s as opposed to how many will go along with the claim out of sheer self-interest?

Orf with his head

What did the BierBC know about the Radio 2 presenter who was sacked? The newspapers say he was questioned by the police in 2018 and the CPS decided not to get involved in 2019. But guilty anyway, according to BierBC Think and the BierBC’s own guilt over its sordid past?

Credibility shot

70% (Labour) to 80% (Conservative) of voters surveyed think the McSweety mugging that deprived the ghouls of his phone and the Mandelsleaze messages on it was faked. Such is the degree of trust in what Smarmer’s Army tells us.
