So should Tony Bliar for far worse crimes committed against humanity and the deaths of lots of servicemen. You will note that he is definitely not in jail, therefore, I think that Boris will be quite safe, in spite of the labour pontifications. Oh, I forgot that many Labour supporters conveniently disown Tony Bliar as Labour and insist that he was not one of them.
The strange world of politics.

Our last three holiday visits have embraced Norfolk, London central and Devon.

In every single location they are crying out for staff. "Closed tonight" signs are going are up in top notch restaurants because there is a shortage of chefs and table staff.

We were in Highgate and one of the area's best restaurants can only open 3 days a week because the chefs have f*ucked off back to Europe following Brexit.

In Kings Lynn a smashing boozer smack right bang in the middle of the town was being run by a one-man team of manager/glass collector/barman due to no working staff and he said he would cope because he was earning triple wages.

Get the European workers back because this Brexit bollox needs fixing and I'm sure a decent government could fix it.

Why do we need European workers when we are paying 1.58 million Brits to sit on their fat, idle backsides ?

"The unadjusted claimant count was 1.58 million in September 2022, which was 34,700 more than the month before and 348,800 more than in March 2020.

If our fellow countrymen can't be arsed to work, by what right do you demand Johnny Foreigner does it for him ?

Compared with the other PMs who have followed Margaret Thatcher- namely Major, Blair, Brown, Cameron, May and Truss- Boris for all his faults seems rather preferable. Despite being hounded from office he retains a good deal of popularity. If he should successfully become PM for a second term it would be an extraordinary feat.

He's only just come back off his jollies and Bojo 22 is ravaging the country, should we let it rip, or mask up and prepare for another lockdown ?

The fact that there is even talk of this charlaton coming back is ample evidence that the Tory party is so bereft of integrity that it cannot be allowed to continue in power.The country is becoming a laughing stock.The only option should be a general election.

Good point, sinkov.

Sadly too many people are ill - educated and ill - qualified to do the jobs. Added to that the bone idle and there you have it.

That's the mystery that greater minds than mine have been unable to solve for the last thirty years mon ami.

I can only speculate that when unemployment was genuine and rampant under the Thatcher years people got into the habit of sitting on their backsides and it's a hard habit to break.

Or possibly it's because working your tits off on a zero hour contract for £9.00 offers little appeal?

Tory policies and their sanctions war working really well:-

Schools in England are struggling to pay their electricity and heating bills, and 90% will run out of money next year, the Observer reported on Saturday. With the cost of living crisis forcing some schoolchildren to go hungry, the government plans to cut spending across all departments.

The National Association of Head Teachers told the newspaper that 50% of their schools will be in deficit this year, with the figure rising to 90% by next September.

Power and heating bills at some schools have risen from £26,000 a year to £89,000 ($100,609), the report stated. On top of this increase, schools are having to fund a 5% teachers’ pay rise announced this summer.

Chancellor Jeremy Hunt is expected to announce spending cuts to all departments, including education, at the end of the month.
