    Starmer will have something to worry about very soon from what i had read. The Jezza problem may include some others.

    Imagine the furore if Cummings is found to own a field to house rescued donkeys.

    That was his job and it didnt involve children. TBH Staines Jezza’s problem was more serious than this.

    Is this a journalist or a member of the public writing?

    how about most of these articles that describe it as an outhouse? You need to be writing to have them change it to a more appropriate name (i haven't spot checked them)

    We don't really know if he's taking the piss until we have the facts. And that was what Labour was saying, and I agreed. Then Starmer jumps in with opportunism

    **** knows. Look it up.

    Don’t see the issue with this one. Outhouse isn’t an offensive term is it?

    An outhouse is a building like a shed or barn that is built on to or in the grounds of a house. I don't see anyone claiming that Cummings was staying in a shed or a barn.

    If someone advertises holiday lets, they don't say - Come and stay in our outhouse for ****'s sake

    Fair enough, Bobby, I hadn't realised when I read your original post that the word outhouse (which is the word for an outside privy in the States when I worked there) was used widely by the English Press. So my comment is withdrawn and apologies to you for my misreading.

    The Grauniad are certainly writing the headlines, one of their photographers must have been short of a shot. No change with the spelling mistakes...

    That’s a terrible attitude, if you don’t mind me saying Ellers.
    Harassment is still harassment.......it’s wrong on any level and it would be hypocritical to say any different.
