    There's a certain beautiful irony about how the Tories have normalised lying for a decade, to the point there's several absolute whoppers from Cameron, May and especially De Pfeffel forever enshrined in the Hansard that it fell to fact checkers to debunk after the fact when the Narrative had already been set so the lies had become fact by default, so they have little grounds for complaint about what amounts to an educated guess about the identity of the ex-minister in their mid-50s who was arrested as, while it may not be a curated, has a better grounding in fact than any sound bite from PMQs

    I think the problem is that nobody expects justice to be done and the Tories already appear to have attempted a cover-up.

    There is

    Eton
    The story;s already falling apart, as the initial version said they knew a month ago - but it;s since come to light the initial complaint was made four months ago

    Just a reminder, but four months ago the country hadn't begun lockdown yet...

    Thailand has laws against criticising the monarch, so pro-democracy protesters have gone Harry Potter themed.
    They're not talking about the King, honest. It's He Who Must Not Be Named! <laugh>

    The real question is how the Orange Overlord always seems to sit on chairs like he's sat on the khazi

    I hate to suggest that the press are using the Beirut explosion as a convenient excuse to avoid having to report that their beloved Tories have completely ****ed the nation's Covid response

    But...
