So the Tories are feeling invigorated by the prospect of being led by a narcissistic, sleazy, pathological liar. What was that story about him flying secretly to an ex-KGB spy's villa in Italy, straight from a NATO conference Why are the right-wing press hushing that one up ?

Keep an eye out for the Mail, Express and Telegraph in the coming weeks and months. They will be desperate. Desperate to avoid a Labour government. Desperate not to lose access. Desperate not to die. It’s going to get vicious.

Those fathead Tory bleeders Suck at choosing leaders 'Cos they're all Mail readers, Stupid bottom-feeders, who are told how to vote by an evil thug called Paul Dacre, whom the Tories want to make a Lord just as soon as the latest Mail scandal blows over (last line not right yet)

Apparently several democratically elected governments thought it might protect their citizens from a brutal, psychopathic dictator I don't think they wanted to attack Russia, because they don't make anything that anyone wants

Sadly,no, Philip, nothing as encouraging as that Just that it would be embarrassing for the Tories to make him a Lord just days before it is revealed that he lied to the Leveson Inquiry and will have to go to jail Maybe....ever so slightly less shameless than usual

Possibly a very rare example of integrity coming out of Downing Street. But will this particular one last?

The Mail is issuing lots of pompous statements denying that they intruded illegally into the lives of Sir Elton John, Baroness Lawrence, Prince Harry, Simon Hughes et alia, claiming '...there is no credible evidence...' If not, why has Paul Dacre's peerage been postponed ?

New: Will Wilkerson helped create Trump's media company. He even posted Trump's first "truth" on Truth Social. Now he alleges the company violated securities laws and that Trump pressured executives to give their shares to his wife. And there are tapes wapo.st/3exJGH0

People are heading towards Evin prison in Tehran after reports of fire and explosion in Evin. This is another sign that the Islamic Republic is losing control. Evin is where the Islamic Republic holds many political prisoners. The lives of prisoners are in danger #MahsaAmini
