Johnson did go up against Corbyn in a GE.
Except it did. It was a large umbrella company that had a mixture of union and non-union cover (due to being purchased over time). Contacting the rep at one of these sites was met with lack of interest, as our site was employee council only.
Strong "Still Game reboot" vibe here.
The only problem is that if you are in a union, but the company you are in has an employee council with no union rep.
My name is Michael Payne...

Although a brave attempt to emulate his older brother, Dave Madox Brown's "Dossing" failed to capture the public attention. #GirlsOwnCC
The Greer Center in Oklahoma was supposed to be a refuge for people with developmental disabilities. But accounts from inside the facility paint a starkly different picture, depicting a place where helpless patients faced beatings, waterboarding and constant fear. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/14/u...

We've hung some bells from the back door so the dog can let us know when he wants to go out. Make of that what you will
TBF, could be Bell's Palsy.
Yet again, lives and reputations are ruined, all due to an innocent game of Naked Twister.
If you wonder why Medway Hospital ranks as one of the lowest scoring hospitals and Tunbridge Wells the highest, just have a look at the index of multiple deprivation for each area.
It was in Strood and I was not surprised.
Fingers crossed that the saggy old cat hasn't got previous...
I believe his tax affairs are all up to specification, so he should be able to carry on in his role.
Do you honestly think that being an independent country would make you invulnerable to outside influence from media Moguls? You're judging this from your own standards not those in power.
Good to see they're burning down the building that they will have to pay to rebuild.
I see Dodgy Eric has managed to shift the other half of the pair from the festival in Amsterdam.
I do hope Labour Peer Lord Peter Mandelson's tax affairs are in order.
Did he lower the lid when flushing, or let the feculent water spray out of the bowl. Asking for a friend.

In just a few days, you can see SPINAL TAP II: THE END CONTINUES on various large screens around the world. I’d recommend it, if only for the greatness. And the loudness. Plus Junior Mints.
Are you pissed?
Was nobody tempted to stand in his eyeline at the front and suck a lemon?

She will eat Farage alive.
It's one way of rinsing the plates before putting them in the dishwasher.
The inverse of this is trying to walk out of a shop using a different exit that isn't there.

They let you in with a dog?

I thought it was Amol Rajan?
I would suggest to not look him in the eyes, but around them.
And so is your mum - Cecil Francis Alexander.

No politician would be brave enough to say Brexit was a mistake. They would be accused of being unable to deliver. To prove that it could never be delivered goes down the road of telling a majority of voters they were dimwitted enough to believe Farage.

Obviously one had not wished, sorry, manifested, hard enough.
That's a lot of copper...
I will still keep attempting Whittaker's Mexican Whistler. You can't stop me...
I hope this doesn't affect my wogglehopping hobby...
Is your reply "why are you asking me?"
I imagine they took one glance at the size of his van, and decided it wasn't worth it

You see, I thought that but people voted for Brexit. I thought people would see through Boris as PM, but no. If the media is accepting of populism because it sells copy/clicks and is the easy thing to do, what chance do we have to be better?
The problem is politicians just aren't allowed to call a bigot "a bigot" anymore
It could be argued that Moses did not part the waters, Jehovah did... #onlyconnect
The dog has chased a fly onto the windowsill, then knocking down behind the sofa. Trying to convince him not to fall down there after it...

On Countryfile this week, we visit yet another windmill and again have the process of flour production explained. We may even rub the flour between our fingers, and have a slice of bread and butter.
I used to enjoy @danceronfilm.bsky.social at the other place, but here they've hardly posted anything.
It's a scene that sits alongside 15 Storeys High, where Errol is trying to be taught how to sex whitebait.
The sign by the door says...
"Thank you for your constructive criticism, which has helped me write this new piece of prose, which I have titled 'Evidently Chickentown'..."
I blame blogs. Once upon a time you would search for guidance on how to do X, and a concise answer would be returned. Now, because the author had some Proustian moment, it's the ins and outs of a ducks arse to finally get the information you are looking for.

Ladder Party?
Yes. On a bus. With all the different voices.
No, if a school wants a school uniform, the school should pay for it. It should be considered to be equivalent to PPE.
Steeleye not quite long enough.
Ah yes, the genetically engineered oil producing triffids.
Exactly. We wanted cheap financial services, so work was offshored, and shareholder dividend return weren't impacted.
Has it been 10 years? I really enjoyed its ethereal exploration, a great game. Thank You!
Looking at the people recruited by Trump to fill such important roles, you realise that MBA's have a lot to answer for.

The Lord Of The Rings trilogy, except instead of a ring it’s an emu puppet, and whenever Frodo slips it on he races around pinching everyone’s bottoms.
I have a Ted, he has a corduroy Santa Polar Bear. The bear has lost his green scarf and has seen unspeakable things.
I’m excited to let you know that orders are now open once again for customers in Northern Ireland and the EU! Please bear with me while I get everything back up and running. I'm still setting up shipping for some products (it's a big job!) www.gailmyerscough.co.uk
I have very happy childhood memories of camping, when I had nothing to do with its organisation.

As a child I played with Lego. Anybody who plays with it in adulthood, good, go for it, you have a passion you enjoy. But, the plural of Lego is Lego, not Legos.
No.
Ted did a sterling job, winning dog with the waggiest tail at the Pembroke House Care Home Dog Show.
