Take good note of what Burnham’s ‘vibes’ actually mean in practice . . .

Andy Burnham has appointed the US consultancy giant BCG into the heart of Downing Street to draw up his 10 Year Plan for the country.
Last year they worked with Donald Trump on his plan for a 'Gaza riviera' to permanently ethnically cleanse Gaza.
There are no words.

Jingles never stopped working. They just became unfashionable. Also true of long-copy press advertisements, direct mail, radio advertising. The list goes on.

this is probably the only time i’ve seen labour have a spine over anything and it’s to defend a genocidal ideology

42 Years of Hatful of Hollow
Released on November 2, 1984, Hatful of Hollow is a collection of BBC sessions, singles, and B-sides.
Forty-two years later, it remains not merely a compilation, but one of the finest records the Smiths ever released.

Unpopular opinion : if you don’t like the charities Romesh and Bash ( who ever he is) have chosen, you can donate your own money to the charities you think are worthy.

James Acaster’s desperate need to appear likeable at all times has made this Traitors season such a disappointment. I hope the producers are watching this back and get some celebrities who aren’t afraid to be villainous little shits next time - insufferable right to the end

The one thing that grinds my gears about this Henderson discourse is people acting like martyrs coz they didn’t boo him.
Ok cool he was Liverpool captain, premier league and champions league winner but all I saw last night was a Chelsea player trying to knock Liverpool out the cup and personally, I’d do what ever to put off an opposing player

Jordan Henderson ever take a penalty for Liverpool btw? Sticking himself no. 5 to be their hero, prick.

This is why it’s so important to challenge the notion that the government “borrows” from the private sector. It paralyses everything, dresses itself up in “mundane common sense” but its one of the most damaging misunderstanding a politician can have.
“What I find very difficult… is the assumption you have to cut your way to be being fiscally responsible”
“There’s not a hope in hell that [Labour] are going to oversee any cuts to public spending”

Happy Birthday to one of the greatest TV shows ever produced. "Minder" is 47 today. The ultimate in British culture and banter. Back when we used to be a proper country. Up there with the very best 🎉🎂♥️

Thank you, Andy.
Would you mind explaining to your @BBC colleagues that taxes and gilts don’t pay for government and that resources, including human, are constraints, not money.
Many thanks.

John Healey only taxing banks by extra 3% - and time limited.
HSBC made £900 every SECOND over the last three months (NEF analysis).
Labour are asking the banks for 'a bit more' when they should be properly taxing obscene bank profits.
