    Conservative whips have reportedly been told to cancel engagements and convene in Parliament, with assumptions being made that it means a confidence vote is on.

      'Preening Tory saboteurs'

      Comment


        But didn’t the DM previously... oh never mind.

          That's a hell of a front page. I wonder if Prince William is taking on the Daily Mail for its bile and hate that contributed to this disasterous cluster fuck....

            He's doing the hands

              He really doesn't have the head shape for baldness. Not like Jean Luc Picard or something. Poor guy.

              Comment


                The Mail's tone on Brexit has changed rather dramatically since Greig took over from Dacre. Much to Dacre's annoyance, which makes me smile.

                  As if he was ever not in a state of permanent annoyance.

                  Comment


                    To be fair, he was getting annoyed for money rather than being genuinely annoyed. Otherwise you'd be suggesting he was deliberately enjoying a permanent victim complex, which would be some slur and surely a worse scenario than the former...

                    Comment


                      From Private Eye's description he was genuinely annoyed/angry most of the time.

                        Gove has bottled it, apparently.

                          The DexEU job or resigning? Or both?

                                  What a cavalcade of cunts they are.

                                    That's doing cunts a disservice.

                                      He's in a very difficult situation. He's a real live human being, with all of the bits and pieces associated with being a person, but his entire existence is to be part of the Front of House PR distraction for a pretty awful establishment. When He was younger he was one of the most photographed people on earth, and was quite handsome. But he's not aging well, and if you notice, the attention has switched from him to his wife and his kids. indeed you can even see this in how press photos are framed with them in the centre of the photograph, and this is a thing that is going to only get worse, and the process of Prince Charlesification is continuing apace. Soon he'll just be an odd looking middle aged man, waiting around for his Grandmother, and then his father to pass on.

                                        Berba, it's a moral failing of mine that I find your regular descriptions of the adverse effects of the ageing process and genetics on Waity Willsy more amusing than is proper.

                                          You can practice your French with this, scathing editorial about the Tories and their handling of Brexit ("la droite la plus bete du monde") in a paper from a country that is not even in the EU...and possibly also an indication that May has garnered more respect in Europe than she thinks as she is singled out as a "femme d'Etat" by the editorialist.

                                              Indeed, and then you look at his younger brother, too, with his handsome cavalry officer appearance. You'd be forgiven for thinking they had different fathers or something.

                                                Anyway, Rooney's hair transplant seemed to go ok for him, so maybe Wills should give it a try.

                                                  Ach, I don't want to pick on the guy, and I've been shaving my head since shortly after I turned 20. There's just something really fucking absurd about the way that the Royals are portrayed particularly when they are young and comparatively good looking. And then they have to hang around for 50 years to wait to do their big job. He's being moved to the edge of photographs of his own family. It's like those photos of Jose Mourinho at his son's 21st, and he's in the corner of every photo. Except William hasn't been thrown out of the family home for sexual incontinence, it's just that he's not as good looking as his wife and the children who look like her, and even though he's going to be king at some point, he gets edged out.

                                                  The Whole thing is a fucking farce.
