Morning refit

The Tories and all those who did not immediately condemn this shit , are as bad as Trump --

Maths teaching might be the only thing I agree with Sunak about, but he just looks like an idiot

Education secretary admits schools don’t have enough maths teachers to implement Sunak’s plans

[AnatolyKasparov]

Not the resources, you say? What a shock.

Angered by this, or perhaps just enjoying herself, she ripped up the Eiffel Tower and used it as a weapon to attack the Champs-Elysees before confronting the Arc de Triomphe which turned out to be where a giant Venusian space dinosaur was hibernating. The consequent battle laid waste to much of Paris and killed many thousands of people and under the auspices of the UN she is now held in captivity in Wales.

Cool - so deranged enough for a perfume ad after all!

[AnatolyKasparov]

Any more Eurovision stuff today?

[tinyclanger2]

There will be - I was a bit too knackered yesterday

[refitman]

I predict there will be no consequences

My first thought when I dialled up Georgia's "Echo" was: Lawrence of Arabia.
My second thought was: John Shuttleworth (see Forgotten Chocolates vis a vis "Echo").
My third thought was: Yowch!

Suffice it to say that Iru has a voice which slices through your brain. At least it does if you're a clanger. Thus I am unable to recall the song at all, as I had to immediately file it into a sound-proof compartment (in said brain). This left me effectively just watching the video which was basically more of the same. Black, white and red (or was it dark blue, white and red?). More than a touch of the perfume ad (with multiple costume changes the thought of which left me exhausted).

I was, I admit, surprised by the dancers in white mascara dressed as maggots. Not your traditional Eurovision image, but at least a little unexpected.

Clanger rating:
Was it fun: Brain says "no"
Was it dancey: non
What would Terry have said about it? Again Terry would have been unable to comment as he would have been busy packing his head with ice
