Well then, looks like Gary Rowett is all but done and dusted given BBC Oxford now reporting it’s getting close. Disappointed it’s not Andy Whing but we move on. UTFO

It’s fine. It’s all fine…..
Bagley Woods. “No photos” from the hound.
Chief Whip
It’s a revelation! From South Oxfordshire to Stratford in under 90 minutes door to door thanks to the Elizabeth Line. Now time for those in the North to feel some love though. We’re spoilt! Even if we forget.
Would be lovely if one of the angry farmers, who owns land very close to Oxford Parkway decided to make a bit of cash and sell up. Can’t think what the land could be used for mind you….
England v Ireland
If I was a Welsh farmer, or any farmer for that matter. I think I’d probably spend more time protesting against a certain Clacton/US based MP before moving attention to the current Labour govt. Brexit has decimated the industry.
If I had the strength to wade through the filth that is the Daily Mail comments section I suspect there would be quite an interesting comparison to be made…. Just checked…. No…..
Practicing her pointing. 8 months today. Now snoring by the fire!
Hearing reports of the ‘Friends of Childrey’ lighting pitchforks before marching to London. Tesla, Reading now barricaded. :D
Are you referring to the cosplay restaurant in Birmingham?
If this was the UK we’d have a copy of it published in a poor selling, Christmas autobiography before you could say I’m a Celebrity Gaetz Me Out Of Here
The ‘Dreaming Spires’! My glorious city. I do hope you both visited the best chip shop in the city in Blackbird Leys?!
:-) trust me, I know! Was just trying to find a recent example and he’s the first that landed. Ignoring the experience side of things, I suspect only one is working in government with any thought of helping others.
Man in grey down jacket really has a thing for that pint of fosters. That or he’s noticed there’s a fly in the glass.
Thank you, Alex. I guess it’s not too dissimilar to Starmer appointing his cabinet after winning the GE. In some cases also appointing unelected individuals to support e.g. James Timpson/Elon Musk. Depending on your political persuasion you’d suggest that a PM looks to appoint the best for the job.
Hi Alex, I’m trying to get to grips with how nominations/picks work. It doesn’t seem too dissimilar to American sport from an uninformed spectator like myself. Is there anything that explains the process that enables the likes of RFK Jr to be part of the US govt machine?
How does it all work then? RFK Jr is ‘nominated’ for the role (as are others) by Trump. Is it like US sports and it’s basically a roster? Or do they have to be voted on. My head hurts.. probably my woke mind virus!
It is the best bit of Facebook but they really could do with working out their GPS! 10km from Oxford definitely isn’t Bridlington.
“Giggidy dark MAGA giggidy…..urgh”
She’s not always perfect, but she’s not bad!!
Recent convert to the app after the @mrjamesob.bsky.social mention on his show. Not a difficult choice to be reborn on Bluesky. IMO the worst part (and there are lots) of X is its use as a propaganda tool by Musk to line his pockets and feed his own narcissism. There’s an hour on that discussion!
I think you’re giving ‘our’ Jonathon a little too much credit.
Not entirely sure how this works. Hi Bluesky thinkers and inhabitants. Sustainability and human rights SME, OUFC football fanatic and cycling aficionado. Looking forward to following (relatively) sane people to discuss a variety of political and broader current affairs topics. Hello and go well
That’s a lot of follows.
It’s a long time until January!…..The US is building the foundations for a 21st C remake of ‘Lord of the Flies’.
