Although it is not true that all conservatives are stupid people, it is true that most stupid people are conservative.

Been to the match tonight - Why do the gods of football put Geordies through the mill? Two goals in the 5th & 6th minutes of extra time to beat Norwich 4-3.
And Rusty is still just a cock and WUM. Not worth responding.

Really not clever to have the shadow AG unable to ask the actual AG any questions, as in different houses....

No, I thought that too.SpinningHugo wrote:Really not clever to have the shadow AG unable to ask the actual AG any questions, as in different houses....
But does the AG do much in the way of speaking in the Commons? Maybe they'll just use Starmer for that.

Just about everyone else in Harrogate is a tory supporter, so on the balance of probability, yes.Tizme1 wrote:@Paul, TC, A Hindle,

I would've thought Co-op tea would be the ethical choice?

Interesting.
Just reading about the suspension of Ben Emmerson and thought I'd wiki him. Until 1999 he was a member of Doughty Street Chambers.

I suspect that appointing Starmer to be Shadow Home Secretary might well be a very decent appointment right now...and this might be somewhat embarrassing to the Home Secretary who set this inquiry up and had responsibility for it until fairly recently.Other notable members include Amal Clooney, Louis Blom-Cooper, Geraldine Van Bueren, Sadakat Kadri, Helena Kennedy, Ben Silverstone and Keir Starmer.
