Good morning.

The potential next leader of the DUP sounds like a nice chap and in no way an extremist bigot.

Peter Foster on the subject of Brexit problems for fishing/farming, nails a contradiction - if there's no penalty for the govt because nobody cares, why not do a deal?
The thing is all this - for now at least - seems to come with zero political cost for the govt. Perhaps masked by #COVID19 but there is no punishment at the polls for these hits to what are (ultimately) small industries....but that itself begs a question...

If no-one really cares, why not just go ahead and do a deep SPS/Vet deal?

I guess fear of being sucked back into EU's regulatory maw...but it would be boon to producers, fix lots of NI protocol issues and, as we've seen, no-one would care/notice.

So why not??

Strange that most of this morning's papers are leading on a story nobody in the "real world" cares about, eh?

Presumably the Defund The BBC will still be banging on about the left-liberal viewpoint even thought the takeover by the right is nigh on complete.

Dear Fly the Nest

I've started voluntarily thinking about the merits of sofabeds.
Is it age or is it This Age?

Spiked alumni are standing for office, rather than just skulking behind the scenes:

No surprise that they are anti-lockdown grifters.
