Our MP, the lamentable Torcuil, has voted against extending Child Benefit on two occasions since elected in accordance with this awful Government's instructions to Labour MPs. However, now, in a total reverse-ferret and terrified of its truly dreadful poll ratings, the Government has announced that it will extend Child Benefit after all.
Which way will the spineless Torcuil vote this time?
Keep watching!
Utterly awful. Should be renamed RADIO POP MUSIC. It is absurd that any public money should be spent on this typically BBC Gaelic Psychodrama.
Astonishingly, after that disastrous Budget of a few days ago, Rachel From Accounts remains in post as Chancellor of the Exchequer. Of course, Rachel and Starmer are interlocked - if one goes, the other is on a very shoogly nail.
But Rachel remains in big trouble still. Rachel publicly based her Budget on a Big Black Hole of anything up to £30billion GBP in the nation's finances. However, it has now been revealed that the Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR) told her months ago that there was no such Big Black Hole and yet up to, during, and, indeed, after the Budget Rachel persisted that there was. The Leader of the Opposition, Mrs Badenoch, has called Rachel a liar saying she has no option but to resign office.
The reason for this deceit on the public is simple. The thick as mince horny-handed sons and daughters of toil lobby fodder on the Labour back benches are getting very restless as, come the next General Election, their chances of survival are virtually nil. To placate them in the meantime in return for their continued support, Rachel simply had to increase the Child Benefit bill by a huge amount - pay those MPs off in other words.
We have long maintained that Mrs Reeves is the most stupid woman in the world. She is doomed - and Labour's latest version of Russian-style Socialism is doomed with her.
Well, that's that over and at a cost of some £200million GBP. That the various governments of the realm did 'too little, too late' we already knew. With Boris Johnson in charge down south and Nicola Sturgeon in charge in Scotland it was inevitable that it was always going to be a dog's dinner anyway.
Should the Inquiry not have been about whether Lockdown was both necessay and appropriate in the first place?
That's the one question everyone wants to know.
As a matter of recorded history, monarchs and their offspring the world over have long been a very unsavoury lot. The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland is no exception.
As events unfold, the late Queen Elizabeth II's perceived saintliness is suffering a mortal blow and quite rightly so. We have never believed anything other than that she was highly typical of the breed and a cunning and conniving woman, just like her mother Lady Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon, better known in later years as the Queen Mother. That the late Queen Elizabeth chose to marry that appalling man, Prince Philip, and the closeness of the Royal Family to the ghastly Lord Mountbatten, tell us really all we want to know.
British newspaper proprietors and editors over the past 150 years are to blame for this dreadful state of affairs. Instead of investigating and publicising the outrageous conduct (including drug-taking aplenty) of the Royal Family over those years, and instead of taking a discerning and critical view of the whole Goddamn lot of them, those proprietors and their editors turned a blind eye to some dreadful misbehaviour and chose the fawning sycophants' way in anticipation of becoming associates of the royal tribe. Utterly shameful. No wonder we cannot trust or believe a word written in the Press to this day and no wonder that in this internet-enlightened age newspaper sales have dwindled to a trickle.
Both the Royal Family and the Press are reaping what they have sown over a great many years.
If our assessment of the ghastly state of politics today is correct, it appears that the only issue among the chattering classes for some time now has been who is to replace Keir Starmer as Prime Minister.
Keir has never got over his huge problem at the start of his premiership in accepting a colossal amount of free clothing from Lord Alli. He never will. That was a bad move but there is nothing he can do about it now. However, realising that Keir is a hopeless Leader, that he's not really interested in being Prime Minister and that they are all going to lose their seats, the vultures are circling for blood. Those vultures are Angela Rayner, Red Ed Miliband, Wes Streeting and that chancer, Andy Burnham, mayor of somewhere in the North of England.
Lord help us with any of that lot as Prime Minister. Caviar and champagne for them, sackcloth and ashes for the rest of us.
Most sadly, the BBC flagship radio programme, Good Morning Scotland, is soon to be no more. It is to be replaced by some dreadfully-named thing called Radio Scotland Breakfast.
We had become well-used to presenters Gary Robertson and Laura Maxwell over many years and we liked in particular Robertson's roughing-up of Scotland's Nationalist politicians - who are stupid beyond belief one might add. We have nothing whatever against the new presenting team of Martin Geissler and Laura Maciver, both excellent journalists in their own right, but why the change?
And what dumpling dreamt up the name Radio Scotland Breakfast? It's enough to make you spew your porridge.
