    Yeah, but even Ken tweeted about needing a bigger bottle of whiskey to get through this lot.
    Women's bodily autonomy will soon find itself on the agenda.

    I'd like to think Mr. Murphy is wide of the mark here - but sadly think not. We're in for a bumpy ride - one from which the UK may not recover.

    I agree. Worrying.

    A pub landlord told me last week that prices would hit £24 a pint in London this year. <yikes>

    I'd be very surprised if pubs/breweries remain viable for long enough for the price to reach that. Home brew might be the order of the day - unless the government tax the hell out of equipment and ingredients.

    I agree the former sounds impossible, but who would have thought people would pay over £2000 for a single season ticket? That brings me to yorkie’s point - yes, as it was for football.

    Truss has been busy - although I'm not sure that she has the power to lift the fracking ban in Scotland.

    This should worry every worker in the UK.
    A plan to ban unions - and to introduce a 996 working hour system. For the uninitiated, a 996 system means 12 hour days, 9:00 am to 9:00pm, 6 days a week.

    So who thought Thérèse Coffey’s appointment would pose a threat to the nation’s health? What a shock.

    We mustn't grumble - surely unregulated banker bonuses will mean a major boost to the Creative Tax Avoidance Scheme industry? Accountants across the nation will benefit...
