    They certainly did last year and generally it was deservedly so. Since the vaccine rollout it has diminished and Starmer's abject performance has taken the heat away from them to focus on his shortcomings...

    Let's move it on something which is a lot closer to home. Dominic Cummings. The sheer audacity of the man to try to throw the DoH under the bus in his evidence before a Parliamentary select committee blaming it for mismanagement of the crisis in the first wave. Now I know memories are short but I think all of us especially those who have lost loved ones will remember his part in the second wave as he went on the return leg of his errand of mercy (he claims) because he could not find a Specsavers that was open and could not afford childcare. You picked a good one there Boris.

    Oh, do keep up, Strolls. She's taking a shaver as a present for Jeremy Vine.

    I don’t get the shaver reference either, though I’m sure it’s great bantz. Sarkar is an uber-leftie metropolitan elite gammon-baiter who just won a big payout from Julie Burchill over a load of islamophobic Twitter abuse.

    Yeah, I knew all about that. Just curious to know why the shaver tweet was worthy of posting here.

    Goldie?

    I thought it was a nice touch of the raving left wing journalist who said "We're winning" when BAME numbers went up in London, to give Vine a present

    You don't like my explanation? I have lots of them. How about - I can't stand her and she's very masculine so someone's made a joke that she has to shave her face. Wokies can't complain, we're all gender neutral now

    Ah, I see now. You don't like her, so you posted a tweet which hilariously mocks her appearance. How sad.

    No difference to journalists and others commenting on Boris's hair or weight, Jacob R-M's accent, William Hague's bone dome, Priti Patel's height, Anne Widdecombe's lack of sexual attraction. Get over it.

    All of those would be equally hilarious.

    Have you had this burning desire for revenge ever since someone made a joke about William Hague's baldness in 1997?

    You do take these matters incredibly personally, Strolls. She's an aggressive left wing journalist, makes racist pronouncements and criticises others for racism which makes her a hypocrite too. This was a mild, off the cuff joke tweet, and it seems to have shot right up your nose...

    It was a pathetic, unfunny tweet that I genuinely didn't understand until I managed to drag an explanation out of you, Goldie.

    Why you thought it worthy of putting on here is beyond me.

    You didn't drag out the explanation. The point of the post was obvious, and you were playing dumb.

    Humour can be subjective, Strolls, and what you may not find funny, others will. If you don't like it, ignore it. Don't be a snowflake.
