#58, your havin a larf James, I say your havin a larf. Guardian tells as it is, its so rabid if it was a dog it would be put down.
At least the Conservative leaders can tell the difference between a man and a woman, something Sir Keir Stramer can't do.

#59 Des, Russia have had a record number of athletes using performance enhancing drugs which have shown up in failed drug tests. Russia has a habit of disputing the findings. I wonder when China will be banned.
Of course other western countries are squeaky clean
A lot of decisions about who hosts what sporting events I think it depends on how thick the brown padded envelope is.

Is this what you are on about Vic?
Keir Starmer refuses to say if a woman can have a penis as he flounders while being grilled in trans rights debate
The Labour leader was speaking during his regular phone-in on LBC radio
He was asked about Lia Thomas a trans woman who won women's 500 yard title
Starmer said it is for 'sporting bodies themselves' to decide who can compete
Asked if a woman can have a penis, he said discussing it that way helps no one.
Really Vic, Is this the best you can come up with.

I would have thought there are more pressing issues than whether this one or that one has a pair or not.

That's the point James he hasn't got any or a backbone.
Sacked Angela Raynor, had to reinstate her.
Issues edicts to his MP's, do not join picket lines, and 30 or so have joined the picket lines, without any repercussions.

Re: Putin V the West
Ah well Vic like it or not he is going to be the next PM. I see Liz Mistust is having a bitch again.
Ms Truss said she was never given a "realistic chance" to implement her radical tax-cutting agenda and claimed she wasn't warned about the fragility of the British economy.
The former PM also claimed she was ousted by a "very powerful economic establishment" she said has "shifted Left-wards" - despite her own MPs forcing her out.
Oh dear always some one elses fault eh Liz!!! those pesky lefties.

Re: Putin V the West
I agree Tory leaders and MP's can tell the difference between male and female, but so many males are attracted to other males.
It seems almost compulsory to list homosexual on their CVs when standing as a Tory candidate.
I blame boarding schools and Eton for this strange malaise.

Re: Putin V the West
Be it Conservative, Liberal Labor or Calathumpian when it come to it there is very little difference.
Treasury contros the money, ministry of defense, and some times de gate, the armed forces, ministry of health the NHS.,
Then the polis come in and stuff it all up.
If it was just administrators running the country in my opinion it would be a lot better off.
But for those who decry BREXIT look at it this way.
The FTSE 100 hit a new high Friday.
The stock market is a forward looking being, it looks forward from 6 to 12 months ahead on what it anticipates will happen.
Obviously there is a belief the Uk will get better despite all the strikes and other machinations.
As for trussed up, well she has to make her self heard, got to make up for lost opportunities.


Happy daze John in Oz.
Life is too short to blend in.
