    I don't really bother with The Guardian these days either. A bit of BBC - they seem to have grown a backbone again.

    I know how much bollocks has been spouted by the press about Sadiq Khan and TfL because I work in transport (not TfL). I've seen the reality on the ground, and the way it's been reported, and if anyone thinks the Mayor's office has mismanaged the transport network since the virus hit, they think that because they've been lied to by a media determined to deflect criticism away from where it should be aimed.

    Boris and his chums on the other hand...

    Well he was a public schoolboy that worked at Goldman Sachs as a hedgefund manager so I wouldn't be surprised.

    I wouldn't wipe my arse on The Metro.


    If I was that desperate for bog roll, I'd break into @GroveRanger 's gaff, I guarantee he's got a ****ing garage full.

    Raab will probably be the next PM. I like Rishi Sunak as well though so I’m not racist neither.

    It's not people making stuff up Archie , it is the Uks 2 biggest transport watchdogs calling him out for reducing services so much that people were crammed into packed carriages.

    Telling people there was no risk of catching coronavirus on trains or buses when we are told to stay 2 metres away from each other was pretty ****ing stupid too.

    That's a bullshit story though. Some journalist got a photo of one packed carriage, probably before the virus even kicked off. And that photo got circulated as if Londoners were cramming onto the tube like sardines. They weren't. You can have a carriage to yourself on the tube. You can practically have a bus to yourself. It's been that way since March. You've been sold a false narrative, while the real failures are hiding out in the bar at Chequers.

    What happens when the reason more asians etc are dying is found to be that they tend to have more than a couple of generations in a house?

    It's like a comic , I don't think Sadiq, Owen Jones or David Lammy actually believe the crap they come out with they are just race grifters.

    You get headlines like .

    Is swimming racist ?

    They also tend to have higher rates of heart disease and diabetes because they cook everything in ghee and don't get as much exercise.

    The facts won't be getting in the way of a good old race baiting I'm afraid Si.
