Do what the Mackems do and just don't wash them.

Obviously we'll know what actually happens 3 weeks tomorrow, but when you look back on all the shit: giving controversial figures ministerial jobs to troll people, the likes of that Brendan Clarke-Smith trolling the public on twitter, fucking Gullis screaming his head off in the Commons... Not to mention the genuine scandals. They've behaved like the kings of the world at times over the last 14 years, literally taking the piss out of ordinary people, never experiencing any consequence for any of it. It's so gratifying to see that the public is (if the polling holds and stays true on voting day) about to deliver a complete repudiation of all of it. They're properly gonna get what they deserve. It's mint.

It's OVER.

Errrr.

I highly doubt Howe would go. He'd talk to the FA I'm sure, cos he's professional and because it's a brilliant bargaining chip at his next contract negotiation, but seeing players once every few months would drive him mental, I'm sure.

I thought he looked weary right at the start when Rigby was interviewing. He was reenergised by the audience being a cunt to him though. He's never more alive than when he gets to be a snippy little bitch.

I thought he did alright. Much more comfortable with the audience questions than Rigby who is brilliant. No one is even paying attention to Sunak here. He's boring and everyone has decided he's a liar.

Brutal that. He could have told them he likes Mexican coke and he went with Haribos.

Sunak's cringe interview on ITV now. Paul Brand is like a robot made from parts of Max Headroom and Kryten.

They should get Joey Barton in.

He only got 5/1. And immediately got red flagged as a PEP. What a prick.

They are dismal, this lot.

Eddie Izzard. In his fucking beret.

Artist's impression of his reaction to a Miggy right foot cross.

Supposedly a big name celeb is gonna introduce the Labour manifesto launch tomorrow. We'll see. Once rumours like this get out if you trot out Steve Coogan it's gonna be a major damp squib.

Starmer telling reporters "I love driving, it's in my blood", then going on to reveal he has a Toyota hybrid.

Just heard the Tory manifesto compared to when you ring up to cancel your broadband and suddenly there's a load of great stuff they can do for you to keep your business.

I think Starmer nailed the response on this at the time, just saying what a privilege it was to be there, and he wanted to be there for as much as he could, and that it wasn't for him to comment on the PM's decisions, he'd have to do that for himself. Which you can say is a political answer (it is, and the understatement makes it even more effective), but it's also just the answer of a normal functioning human being. He would have looked a right cunt if he'd been crowing about it whilst still at the event.

I've been telling you all how to do it for fucking weeks, arsehole. No surprise that the bloke who accidentally collapsed the "Main Boards" section and thought he'd been locked out of the forum has taken his fucking time sussing it out though.

The LibDem slogan for this election should be "Ooooo Betty".

The Sky leader event is on tonight and sounds like a decent format. Starmer and Sunak each have a separate 20 minute interview with Beth Rigby (in front of the studio audience), and then each separately has 25 minutes in front of the same audience, but answering questions from the crowd. It's 90 minutes of your life but it's an actual genuine attempt to get some answers out of the pair of them. It could legit go badly wrong as well if the audience turns against one or both of them. So much better than ITV's "Keir Starmer, what are your plans to reverse climate change.... You have 45 seconds, starting...... NOW!"

Like shooting fish in a barrel atm.

I actually don't think there was much wrong with that, and I think it's a bit naughty of ITV to clip it up, just cos they know everything he says is being jumped on. He also says it was amazing and brilliant to meet all the veterans, etc. I mean I'm all about things going worse and worse for them in the run up to the election, but I think making something of that clip was bollocks.
