"Am tellun yiz. Yiz are garna ear from peypull aal awa the world, wanting to knar why yiz nevva made more eppeys. The CLAMMA! The INTERNATIONAL CLAMMA to knar what's appnun to Sunlun footbaal club. Peypull from Cewba, peypull from Perew! Arewba! Thems aal lads fans now, ah dinnit think yiz knar what yiv gorron yer ands ere."

Netflix must have told them to cap it at 3 episodes then, you would think. "Ere marra, am not garna lie, yiz are lewsin a lot of top quality banta from the lads on the cuttin rewm floor ere. Are yiz ABSOLEWTLY SHEWA yiz arnly want the three eppeys?!"

In answer to the who cares question though. YOU USUALLY!

He won't give a straight answer to whether he's even gonna stand at the GE atm. Their own chairman can't be fucked.

ARGH! Get this lot out man. This lad does relatively well at challenging Holden but why do they just let them talk endlessly ffs. This clip is 3 minutes long and easily 90% of it is just Holden not answering the question that's been put to them. I know it's frowned upon but I would absolutely be turning Holden down here and telling him he can either answer the question about CCHQ spreading misinformation, or he can hang up the phone. You can't play by the rules with these people anymore. They don't have rules.

Good to hear that there's some pressure internally to just have the election now before "things get even worse". I don't think it'll make any difference unfortunately, I'm just desperate to get it over with now.

The Ground Force team looks well up for this next makeover.

https://iandunt.substack.com/p/byelection-slaughter-yeah-so-it-turns Dunt on last night is a decent read. Nice intro too:

Rees-Mogg thinks the key to success is to just keep doing more of the shit that's set them on the road to electoral oblivion. Yes please.

Aye. There in his capacity as a GB news presenter, opining on a constituency, half of which will be folded into his constituency at the next General election. Reeks. Unfortunately he's too wealthy to have to actually worry about anything but I'd just like to see him out of public life.

Where are people gonna go now to get top level sporting content like the blow-by-blow inside story of Luke O'Nien man-marking Sheffield Wednesday's Barry Bannan out of the league one play-off semi final? It's one of the great sporting contests. Ali v Frazier, Coe v Ovett, O'Nien v Bannan. Just feels like Netflix are making a huge mistake if they don't keep this going.

The latest season of STID feels a lot like they just felt like they had to draw a line under it. 3 very half hearted episodes and I'd be surprised if they bothered their arse with a fourth season. Mental really when you consider the huge global appetite for terrible lower league football, morbidly obese fans, and that beeyewtiful accent.

Apparently Bone was threatening to stand as an independent and campaign against the Tories if they didn't make her the candidate. So they bottled it and still gave up the second biggest Labour swing ever. I just love watching Sunak suffer. Hoping for plenty of that today and over the weekend.

If we get beat, I'm tasking you with finding and kicking fuck out of PL's mates. If PL gets caught up in the crossfire? So be it.

Tory vote share has collapsed from 62% to 24% in Wellingborough, the biggest collapse in their vote share since WW2. Looking forward to them telling us how there's "no great love for Keir Starmer" as if losing that badly whilst no one likes Starmer is actually a good thing.

As expected, Labour gains in both by-elections. Wellingborough in particular was a massacre. As bad a week Starmer has had, Sunak has managed to top him.

beyond a joke now. I'd make him wear a bra when he gets back into the team.

"Bryan Shwanshon. Shky shportsh. At Shaint Jameshush Park. Back to the guysh in the shtudio."

It's fucking mental how the press have gone for Starmer over the Rochdale candidate thing over the past couple of days. Compare that to the non-reporting of some of the absolute fiddlers that the Tories have had as MPs who have triggered most of these by elections anyway. Labour are held to an entirely different standard by a lot of the press and the Tories just allowed to skate on loads of stuff.

Ian Darke was Sky's big boxing commentator too. He loved the bantz with Steve "Buncey" Bunce.

Him and Dharmesh.

Does the season finish with them getting promoted then? I know we take the piss and stuff but that owner they've got. Fuck me. He's just a bairn. Making mad decisions like sacking the boss with no replacement and then you see on this that the bloke they eventually appointed proactively got in touch with them to see if they had any interest in him. Just brutal mismanagement.

It's just undeniable that the news agenda at the BBC has been corrupted by the right.

I've just started watching it. The "Previously on..." for the first episode was glorious. All of that sadness and turmoil distilled into 3 minutes. Like a thick misery syrup.
