Not delivering

The boss of the GMB trade union is giving Edstone Milipede a good booting over his Nett Zero catastrophe. Not sign of the tens of thousands of green jobs promised as the work is going to China. No danger either of a £300 reduction in energy bills.

File under ‘U’ for Uncomfortable

What sort of weirdos want to spend 3 days in an open basket with 2 others whilst flying from Maine to Luxembourg under a hydrogen balloon? One of them was a British woman with an MBE for daring ballooning feats.
    She’s the first woman to do the Atlantic crossing trip under a hydrogen balloon rather than a safer helium balloon.

Alternative future

President Thump is reported to be considering buying the Chagos Islands from Mauritius (which has no right to them) to secure the future of the US air base there. Another vote of no confidence in our wonderful Labour government.

Just useless

When it comes to Defence of the Realm, Labour is rather good at ignoring it in favour of buying benefits votes.
    It is over a year and counting since a defence review was completed and Smarmer’s Army is allegedly busy wrangling over just part of the funding for it.

Attempted murder investigation:
One doomed to failure due to lack of evidence and co-operative witnesses.

Getting even worser


Those with a job will have to work 4 more days before they pay off the taxman and start making money for themself, thanks to having to pay for Labour’s growing army of benefits voters.

Meltdown

We are being threatened with another heat wave this weekend. No doubt the Met Office will be working at pace and making frantic efforts to achieve new world record temperatures.
