Is it not interesting that Rishi chooses to remain abroad and refuses all media requests for comment on the current crisis. Is he awaiting the call for 'the king over the water' (didn't work for David...

Sturgeon

Extraordinary that she's bleating on and on on BBC News that Truss has yet to phone her up. Don't suppose she could make a call herself as FM to PM?

Endless Self-Flagellation

Newsnight features a long report on the British record with Palestinians in the early 1940s. We obviously got a lot wrong but will it never end? Perhaps we could pursue compensation from the Normans...

Iran

Dinosaurs And Meteorites

If the dinosaurs were wiped out by a cataclysmic meteor strike how come other creatures, like birds, reptiles, fish and mammals survived?
