Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

An urgent question asking the government to confirm that a non existent tortoise has the right to vote on who becomes next PM in a week would be something for the history books

I observe that the last election had a paper ballot and an online option voting option.

Online only for overseas addresses (smh).

Which raises the question of how you get to vote this time if you are a raving sociopath pensioner with no email address.

In short, I can see a balls up heading their way, which will doubtless be swept under the carpet but will nevertheless be another nail in the coffin.

Grant Shapps expected to make an announcement later today saying the tortoise is to be deported to Rwanda and the Conservative government take identity fraud extremely seriously

Yes. He's been shelling out the big bucks for years, plus he was a big lettuce supporter when it was unfashionable to be one. Who's laughing now!

A nice potted summary of why Johnson resigned.

bbc.co.uk

Honestly, I think it is in the long term interest of the country that Johnson is put back in power; in 18 months, can he really do that much damage that would be worse than if Mordaunt or Sunak were in power *and managed to make themselves re-electable* (or at least defused the potential for a Labour landslide).

Johnson is the most likely candidate to deliver a Labour victory in 2025.

Are we getting the impression that the Truss 'premiership', in certain circles, has been seen as little more than a fridge?

Latest poll today (by People Polling) so unlikely to be recent enough for a current 100% accurate picture, gives Labour, what I presume a record, 39-point lead. In fact Conservatives are only just in second position!
