Thanks,I'll give it a listen.Stuart has a series on R4 that started today about argument. It starts with the art of debating and lots of references to Plato and Cicero but is already moving into the territory of what happens when one of the debaters is a lying toe-rag. Can't imagine what/who he is getting at

This one in particular, from May, long before Sunak and Javid resigned and the Pincher affair, is revealing of the snakes they all were. Stewart is far too decent to be a Conservative leader.
Start around 14mins in and keep going till you hear the Gove and Hancock behaviour.

And now she is blathering to The Spectator (aka Volkischer Beobachter) about a project to write a new UK theme song. You could not make this **** up.

About 200,000 shire loons could well be about to vote to end all human life on the planet.
I am only half joking.
Truss is seriously unhinged and I wouldn't bet against her declaring war on Russia. I sincerely hope whoever is pulling her strings has a firm grip.

They're a fascist organisation, says a lot that their members carry weight within the Tory Party.

Truss is the perfect PM for the actual 'powers behind the throne'; the Party funders and the media barons.
Because she has no convictions of her own, she just does what she is told because she knows in Tory Party circles it is all about that greasy pole. Her one and only skill, that we know of, is that she knows how to do this. Given her lack of discernible lack of talent in every other area it's going to be a damaging two more years.
