I was quite impressed when the rumours started flying around about high street vouchers for £500 for adults and £250 for children started flying around on Tuesday. Here’s why John Lewis and Boots to cut 5,300 jobs the day after it’s revealed there’s little help for the high street Boots and John...

Linford Christie was offended under similar circumstances about the stereotype also. IIRC it was a tv advert for a newspaper after he’d won Olympic gold, something along the line of asking where he keeps his batteries while obviously referring to the outline of his penis in his Lycra running shorts.

Would it surprise anyone if it turns out one of the investors that’s set to lose out if they go bump ends up being a Tory Party donor or the family of a Tory Party MP or the hedge fund of a Tory MP?

Another one rewriting history I bet Boris is shitting it at the thought of PMQ tomorrow.

It’s the news we’ve all been waiting for.
