He is a horrible right wing cunt but all I can here when I see or hear the name Mr Peter Bone, all I hear in my head is Bercow saying his name. Hearing this didn't help either.

Paid Members Hannibal Scorch Posted May 23, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted May 23, 2020 @RedRooster please explain the difference between a member of the sage committee meetings going to visit someone and another member of the sage committee meetings meeting someone. And then as a follow up, why did the journalist reporting both defend one and condemn the other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Houchen Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 Same, Lion. Playing Forza and always have the classical station on. Whenever that comes on that’s all I sing. Speaking of consistent journalism. We now go to walking forehead Brendan O’Neill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Power Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 Jesus Christ, it is biased isn't it. I'm 37 years old and consider myself reasonably intelligent - yet I've never once said biased. Carry on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Factotum Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 Dominic Raab saying people should look at themselves in the mirror for politicising this. Big words from Dom as he himself doesn't have a reflection (Second vampire joke this thread and i'm pleased with both) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From her one sentence tweet that’s what you took from that. That she was praising great journalism. Also we could play a fun game thanks to @Factotum. Cummings or vampire?

She literally said ‘that’s a hell of a story’. That’s quite clearly saying it was a great story, not condemning Ferguson. To say otherwise is simply reading what you want to into it. Anyway, this story is about Cummings and the focus should be on him. And Grant Shapps. That was one trainwreck of a briefing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it could be in reference to what a great, well written piece of journalism. Or the story itself is “a hell of a story”. I think you’re the only person to think it’s the first option. But I’ll agree with you. The daily update today was hilariously awful Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Hannibal Scorch Posted May 23, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted May 23, 2020 (edited) Well Dan Hodges is an absolute tosser. Just giving his opinion on BBC News shouting over his fellow contributor and justifying what Cummings did as being common sense. Heard of him but never seen him before.
