“I want the truth told,” she said about Stanley’s violence, which was witnessed by Boris. “He hit me many times, over many years.”

Isn’t the real question here why anybody is asking the opinion of the father of a former Prime Minister?
Stanley Johnson criticises Labour for not being closer to the EU
Then Stanley Johnson says the UK needs to get as close to the EU without going back into the EU Single Market
Father like son, both want their cake and to eat it, while the country is poorer because we aren't in the EU Single Market

Today was nuts. Actual historically and legally significant levels of nuts but I don’t think BlueSky allows or encourages discussion of women’s rights so I’ll just say that I’m bursting with pride and leave it there.

The leading equality law KC in the country is Karon Monaghan (she is the author of the leading book in the area). She was representing the lesbian groups who intervened so to suggest the position was not arguable is a reach so long a boxer would be proud of it.

This is Lola. She needs to be tucked in for bedtime, but has very tiny arms. So you can see why this is an emergency. 12/10

I have three reviews to go for the Obs but today, after 180 of them, is my last column for OFM. So I thought I’d summarise my searing advice from the last 15 years: the wisdom, the provocations and the occasional stupidities. Enjoy. Or grind your teeth. Your call

A number of prominent UK Conservatives' statements about Donald Trump resemble one of those news stories that begins with a magazine feature about a new age mystic who believes he can talk to bears and ends with a newspaper article about a new age mystic being mauled to death by bears.
