Good Lord no, sorry Pete. This was Coventry City Council at their worst and no one involved is ever going to get any forgiveness from me, especially given that there's never been even a hint of an apology. I'm sure that won't bother Ms Lucas even slightly in fairness.

Nice to see you around SBWM, I was starting to get worried! Thank you also for your kind words on t'other thread a little while back, it's good to know that someone occasionally enjoys my inane ramblings! 😄 Anyhow, yes, agreed another good bit of analysis from OSB. Whatever the reason is behind...

I know if I was running Cov I'd be tempted to tell the RFU to stick their pointless, rigged, cup competition where the sun doesn't shine. I'd give the players an extra week off and send Ealing a note to congratulate them on their 'victory'. The RFU isn't fit for purpose and hasn't been for a...

I'm not sure I quite see it that way. If Wasps should fail one day, there aren't many customers in this town for a 32,000 seater stadium. Anyhow, I must admit that I'm pleasantly surprised to see them letting down the bond holders at such a late date - especially after stating earlier in the...

I get exactly where you're coming from, Pete. It never feels right to celebrate slaughter. Some of those Russian soldiers though, seem to be willing to act in ways so terrible that they deserve everything they get, and more. Some are also going to be frightened teenagers that don't want to be...

2-3-5, now that's a proper formation for a football team! 😁

It's a disgrace, and I honestly don't know why the Labour party don't fight fire with fire. It's obvious that parliamentary convention isn't being adhered to in any sense by the Conservative party, so why not start playing by the same rules? Labour MPs should start calling out the obvious...

Congratulations CK, delighted for you. Hope the day goes brilliantly and I'm sure you'll have a long and happy life together. Cheers!

I certainly don't think the military ones would be welcome at the moment. I must admit that spotting a large, obviously Russian aircraft coming over the horizon might make me feel a tad twitchy. 😄

Boris has basically spent his whole life doing this!

So either this Government signed something that they had no intention of ever honouring, or they were too stupid to understand what they were agreeing (in law) to. Liars or incompetents, you decide. I'm saying both!

Ah stop it now, you're just teasing me. 😁 In truth of course, I've got no idea whether or not Wasps will be able to refinance the bond. Even if they do though, it's not going to be cheap, so it'll continue to be a big drag on the business. In the meantime there's no evidence that their...

I'm left-wing, without a doubt. At least these days. (Technically I'm actually left of centre, but politics has shifted so far to the right these days that people think I believe in a five year plan for Tractors, comrade!) Anyhow, there's no misinformation here. Starmer deserves to be...

This is a bit confusing. I'm talking about those two specific instances too. The difference is that I'm entirely happy for the police and courts to make a judgement on whether the law has been broken, whereas you are seemingly making excuses for those who may have (or have) done it. Boris has...

Absolutely. It's ridiculous, frankly, and makes the police look terrible. The Met appear, not for the first time in their history, to be delaying their own investigation for political reasons. It stinks.

The law is down to interpretation by the Police and courts, surely. For Boris they've done that already (at least in part) and he's accepted his guilt. There's no reason why Starmer shouldn't be subjected to the same level of enquiry, is there?

Exactly this. Possibly worth mentioning that Parliament pretty much spends longer in recess than the schools do in holidays, rarely sits at all on Fridays, and the Prime Minister sees fit to avoid even parliamentary 'urgent questions' and COBRA meetings when he's "busy" elsewhere. The...

Entirely respect the way you make your point mate, but I'm afraid I still differ hugely. The first thing I'd say is that we're not in an existential crisis, so using that as a reason to avoid action against either Starmer or Johnson, doesn't stack up, imho. Secondly both of them are holders of...

Smallest government in the world, Somalia. Ask him how that's working out for them. C'mon LG, I know he's family but you can bury him on this. Two footer, now. 😄
