    "If Putin was a woman, which he obviously isn't, but if he were, I really don't think he would've embarked on a crazy, macho war of invasion and violence in the way that he has," Mr Johnson said.

    "If you want a perfect example of toxic masculinity, it's what he's doing in Ukraine."

    Is this that woke nonsense that they're always banging on about?

    Women don't go to war?

    Like Golda Meir, or Margaret Thatcher or Indira Gandhi or countless Queens

    And he says this while Priti Patel's in his cabinet, eyeing up his job.
    She'd happily kill people over here, never mind those in other countries.

    I disagree, ****s frequently understand what they are doing Dorks do not. A cabinet of Dorks is more accurate.

    Actually, the Poll tax is very equitable.

    The failure is that basic 'spectrum analysis' of a problem
    teaches you that the optimum solution is rarely at the
    extreme bounds of the spectrum.

    The Tories in their case did exactly that (chose an extreme) .
    Compounded by "law of unintended consequences" effects
    (property renters not dropping their prices correspondingly
    now that the council tax burden was borne by their tenants etc) .

    The same problem also manifests in "!business rates" .

    There is discourse to be had on all these things.

    And when the electorate stops behaving like little babies,
    people in the data science + Big data fields are
    ready and wiling to compute optimal solutions for you.

    Raab says Labour “aren’t fit to govern.” Somehow said it with a straight face.

    Police officers in Scotland will withdraw "all goodwill" after they were offered a "derisory" £565 pay rise, the force's chief constable has been told:
    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-61982477

    This is as close to striking as they're allowed to get. Who's next?

    Apparently private eye reporting that BJ was caught receiving a BJ on a sofa in the Foreign office , does this prove that one swallow does make a summer
