I AGREE

Because it's highly amusing seeing all the hypocritical pearl clutching from the Tory faithful 'cos Queen, when they all could clearly not give a flying **** about BlowJob's mismanagement of everything, his lying over everything, the blatant corruption over everything, his inability to follow any rules, y'know, everything else he has done and said...

Finally, we have found the true level of those wankers who voted him in: if only he'd insulted the Queen a while back...

How thick do they need to be to only now realise what he’s like?

From the government's point of view it means they can apologise & seem contrite for being inappropriate during a period of national mourning rather than for breaking the law.

The BBC wanted the fee to rise to over £180 by the end of the settlement.

Instead, it will remain fixed at £159 until 1 April 2024.

That’s more money in the pockets of pensioners; in the pockets of families who are struggling to make ends meet.

Energy bills are going to go up by about 50% this year, average of £12.80 a week, but the headlines are 40p a week saving on your TV license.

Also Someone on average salary will pay £255 a year more National Insurance.

In 2 years time I'll have saved enough to buy about 6 bottles of wine to put in my suitcase.

I hope a broadcaster is getting Sunak on record explaining why he’s seen fit to wipe off over £4billion in fraudulent furlough loans.

This pensioner is perfectly willing to pay another £21 a year if that's whar's required in order to continue to have excellent BBC dramas and documentaries to watch.

Sums it up, ta.

Indeed. Though they've hammered out a short-term compromise, which I believe was basically Visa capitulating.

However it only applies to the UK so it's not really important.

There's push-back from the RN and also from the unionised Civil Service types who are not eager to face manslaughter charges.

Except when it comes to actually deploying any resources.

Or take to a Downing Street party.

As an ex-resident of Greece I often read the website of a Greek newspaper, Ekathimerini. Even they found time to mock Johnson -

Cost of BBC: £4bn

Cost of Test and Trace: £37bn

Cost of HS2: £100bn

Cost of Brexit £250bn

Cost of written off covid fraud £4.3bn

More "excellent" economic news for UK households. :rolleyes:

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-60035312

The good news is that the 40p a week we'll save by underfunding the BBC will more than offset the £255 a year extra N.I. contributions, the hundreds of pounds of extra expense on fuel and electricity and the general inflationary pressures.

It's the same sort of maths that led to the claims of a £350m a week saving from leaving the EU as opposed to well over £1bn a week extra cost.

This would be a much bigger story were it not for all the other disasters the government is failing to deal with. :mad:

Magistrates in England and Wales will have greater sentencing powers to enable them to take on more cases, under plans to clear court backlogs.

The government plans to let magistrates sentence cases where the maximum sentence is a year, rather than the current maximum of six months.

It would allow magistrates to hear cases often held in Crown Court.
But criminal lawyers warn the plan may backfire, and defendants would still have the right to go before a jury.
Justice Secretary Dominic Raab said he hoped the move would reduce the pressure on Crown Courts and lead to quicker justice for victims.

The move would allow magistrates - who are volunteers with no legal experience - to sentence more serious cases, such as for fraud, theft and assault.
At present, crimes warranting a jail term of more than six months have to be sent to a Crown Court for sentencing.
The Ministry of Justice thinks that by doubling magistrates' sentencing powers to a year, it could stop about 500 cases going to Crown Court - giving judges 2,000 extra days to handle more serious crimes.

He said increasing magistrates' sentencing powers would mean that cases came to court quicker meaning "greater justice for victims" and "more criminals seeing justice quicker".
Mr Raab said the move would help provide additional capacity to drive down the backlog of cases, alongside measures such as the temporary Nightingale courts.

This is red meat for the Tory MPs so no chance of it not being passed unamended.

That can't possibly backfire horribly....
:rolleyes:

It only applies to 'either way' offences that can be tried in mags or crown.
Who would choose mags over crown unless they were already pleading guilty?

Tory minister, Nadhim Zahawi claimed expenses to heat his stables and keep his horses warm

But voted against VAT cuts to energy bills to keep actual people warm

Could we make the Royal Family subscription based? I never use them

Sajid Javid plans NHS revolution modelled on academy schools
Academy-style hospitals will be set up to improve patchy NHS leadership under a shake-up planned by Sajid Javid

There it is. Former banker Sajid Javid plans to hand control of whole chains of NHS hospitals to private companies that he coyly calls “outside sponsors”.

Justice Secretary Dominic Raab seriously told BBC Breakfast viewers “we’re still clearing up the mess left by the last Labour Government"?!

His party has been in power for more then a decade!!

Or just pick one to use?

Line of Duty interviews Johnson. Nicely done.

I think he mis-spoke, he meant "still clearing up the mess left by the last Liberal government."

Defence minister James Heappey says he doesn't have a clue about the plan to use the navy against cross channel migrants.
That's not really helping the Big Dog.

It's hardly Boris Johnson's fault that his colleagues haven't bothered to inform themselves about government policy.

Could we make Downing Street subscription only, I don't want to go there now they've broken the swing.

Weren't a number of, somewhat dodgy iirc, Academy Schools set up by a used car salesman?Heart transplant: Low milage, one careful owner. Well not that careful or it wouldn't be available..

I there were a sting of them set up by the Vardy family in the North East of England. The Vardys are creationists if memory serves, and were encouraging the teaching of intelligent design in their schools. :mad:

Look for the same in the hospitals with some reiki and homoeopathy

Well, BlowJob himself did claim (pacé something in the Graun) that he couldn't have known that various "work events" at Downing Street breached rules...

Leading by example!

Yup, it was the Vardys; yup, they are/were Creationists; yup, they did encourage teaching "intelligent" "design"...

Yes, one of the rules was that students had to have a Bible in their bag. Uniforms could only be got from a single approved supplier and included approved socks. Together with the compulsory sports kit it came to several hundred pounds. A way of keeping the riff raff out.

What is it about Labour that defends the BBC?

Liberal elites telling ordinary people what they should think.

It didn’t work with Brexit. It won’t work with the licence fee.

In March 2020 the PM tweeted a letter he wrote to a child, congratulating her on cancelling her birthday party

https://twitter.com/BorisJohnson/sta...48429546217475

"Josephine sets a great example to us all by postponing her birthday party until we have sent coronavirus packing.
Together we can beat this."

He is such a liar. He knew the rules.
