    Sacking an entire HQ is a little bit more difficult than sacking random MPs

    And you forget that Corbyn certainly sacked people who undermined him (at least the ones he could, he was stuck with Tom Watson), for example Owen Smith was given the boot for demanding a second referendum contrary to labour policy circa 2018, while in 2016 Hillary Benn was sacked for his part in the attempted 2016 coup - although he really should have cracked the whip with Margaret Hodge, that would have saved us a few dozen Hadley Freeman think pieces...

    The fact there's a story going along that The Great Leader will take Dorries' safe seat to avoid his imminent political death in return for stuffing her in the Lords is the sort of thing that leads to a cocktail party

    Once again we find ourselves asking if Sunak studied geography at school

    If he was born a few miles further south, then he'd have been in the ****ing sea.
    It's quite a bit north of the birthplace of the current chancellor though, to be fair.
    So's the rest of Europe, as he was born in Baghdad.

    Just a reminder, people are still ripping into Diane Abbott for flubbing her sums five years ago

    But when Sunak says Darlington is in Scotland or Southampton is in the north...

    He must have studied more geography than Truss? Surely? It's a sad contest between candidates as to who makes the most geographic blunders. A bit of geography is good for everyone.

    'Government Attorney General tells her lawyers to lie'
    I imagine that as she lies 24/7/365, then she probably thinks that's the status quo anyway! <doh>

    Are we sure that isn't a typo and she was actually telling them to die?

    According to the current issue of Private Eye, The Nigel Farage Ego Project is facing a winding up petition for failure to pay a £22k bill to a company who ran their advertising, which has also seen bailiffs dispatched to their Westminster office

    Odd how Isabel Oakeshite's boyfriend is loaning the party money, yet can't be arsed to pay an outstanding bill...
