    In their latest bid to prove they are something other than a mouthpiece for the Tories, the BBC have decided to broadcast Enoch Powell's Rivers of Blood speech on Radio 4 read by Ian McDiarmid - who says there is nothing racist about a speech that declares "(I)n 15 years time the black man will have the whip hand over the white man"

    Fox News has gone into overdrive on the Rod Rosenstein attacks in response.
    Don't be surprised if he or Sessions get the chop soon.

    Funny how little coverage is being given to Jeremy ...Hunt forgetting to mention he owns a block of luxury flats, isn't it?

  14. Barely a whisper..... <doh>
    Best estimate is in the region of a £3.5m. Easily the sort of business investment you'd overlook..... Chump change <laugh>

    And in other news.... Trump has found time in his busy Twittering day attacking Comey to pardon a mate of Chehney who was convicted of numerous counts of Treason and related offences in 2007.

    To Trump, siding with an enemy state of the US is standard behaviour.....

  18. So, the DOJ coincidentally releases the Horowitz report criticising FBI Deputy Director McCabe on the same day that James Comey releases his memoirs, which destroy Trump.

    Now if I was suspicious of political motivations, I might conclude that the White House may have engineered that timing to enable the Orange one to deflect attention......

    Surely not...... <laugh>
