They pivoted towards a policy of releasing a deadly epidemic into the world, destroying life as we know it and taking over the remaining ashes of society. Early experiments have shown promise
Needs either dumplings or proper bread. Otherwise it’s definitely one of your better meals although your missus will go ballistic when she finds out you used a tea towel as a table mat
Just watched Raab’s interview and he seems to think it’s normal for people to break at work, down a bottle of wine and then get back to it. Explains the general quality of work being done by the government
You missed the bit where the real driver of the reduction in unemployment rates is the 0.9% increase in people becoming economically inactive since the pandemic started and therefore dropping out of the stats

Liz Truss has got the Brexit job from Frost alongside her current duties of Foreign Secretary and Minister for Women & Equalities. Judging by the job she did on the Australian deal, France will probably own the U.K. by the end of next year
What is spread?
If you mean butter, then yes.
If you mean a condiment like mustard, then no.
If you mean something processed that comes out of a jar or a tube and is meant to be a filling, then get out of the Foodie thread, we only have space for one CD-type chef

We are in a shit cycle of British history, thanks to the Tories
Will also be the third time in just a few years that a handful of elderly Tories in the shires get to elect a new Prime Minister with years to go before an election. Need a new system
What is Tom’s background? Had he fought his way up to the C suite before he met Shiv? I know he didn’t marry her until after the show started but did she get him the job at the company?

“I waited 45 minutes for a gin and tonic so who’s the real victim?”
”Make your own pile”
”Love? You come at me with love?”
Some great moments in that episode
1) they don’t want a resurgent Lib Dems, it doesn’t help them long-term
2) they don’t want a quick end to Boris, he’s damaging the Tories and they want to drag out as much damage as possible
In short they have a bigger agenda than anyone-but-Tories
In my defence, the Alps are a reasonable drive from me and I also live in a country where being middle class is roughly defined as being able to feed yourself
