Election Year or Fear!

Has been ok for me, maybe because I use mobile rather than a ZX81 🤣

So back again, sabbatical spent helping organise an event in London is over - all went very well it seems.

I see the level of acrimony is still elevated

So it was you who advised Postacoglou on Forest's tactics!

[Geoff Parkstone]

Hes lost enough North London derbies to need coaching on that point!

I thought 'dumping in the woods' was a bit random but who knows what goes through someone's mind when they've just shot someone. I'm sure 'Utah Uni Roof' and 'the woods' will be the grassy knoll and book depository of the 21st century

1963 revisited, hey?

Now, regarding my quandary. How did the rifle end up in the woods to be found if the alleged shooter didn't have it in his possession when he got down from the roof?

Anyhoo, I thought it was bears that "dumped" in the woods

Looks like it although I doubt (and hope) there will be a Jack Ruby this time

I don't know, but having trawled social media It doesn't matter, or rather it makes no difference what the truth is or turns out to be.

The killer mayor may not have thought through his actions beyond the immediate, but even I, surprised by little, have been taken back by some of the goings on since it happened

perhaps it was the Humphreys (for those with long memories)

You got me there. The Les Humphries Singers perchance?

Tory MP Danny Kruger defects to Reform. Says he won't call a by-election. Both Farage and Lee Anderson have called for by-elections to be run in the past if an MP defects.

So they surely have to make him call one or reject his application to join Reform?

I’m guessing either Hubert Humphrey, or the original Unigate milk snatcher (watch out, watch out etc) or its meaning - Peaceful Warrior.

Either way, doubt the murder of an extremist broadcaster by another probable extremist is going to resonate in the same way as JFK’s killing did 62 years ago.

At the risk of agreeing with Farage and Anderson - first (and probably only time) for everything - it should surely be mandatory for any MP who defects to another party to have to seek immediate re-election on the grounds that he/she is no longer representing the majority who elected him.
