Are they accepted from Northern Ireland? And doesn't "greased piglet" quite well describe sausages?

Even the superslimeball is quoted in Wiki: David Cameron "We've got to stop this perception that parties can somehow be bought by big donations either from very rich people, or trade unions, or businesses." The Conservative Party admitted that it has engaged in similar borrowing (but did not...

Not a valid basis for disqualification. :)

It's got to the point where that goes without saying. :( Shame Welsh voters aren't able to vote in Batley and Spen. It isn't just once, or twice, it is almost every time he opens his gob he screws it up with at least one of NI, S and/or W.

Johnson's behaviour in Cornwall/G7 probably won't do him any favours.

It wasn't me wot dun it! Partner is into such things and sells patterns on Etsy. That was a near-"production" test/sample.

How to defuse PMQ by asking nonsense questions: Ben Bradley (Con) asks for a meeting with the PM to discuss options for the East Midlands. Johnson says Bradley already has a ministerial meeting lined up. (I thought Johnson was pretty stupid but this Bradley fella is really taking the urine.)
