On why Farage doesn’t apologise for his schoolboy racism:
“if he apologised, he would be turning to his own support base and saying, ‘You’re all guilty too.’ ”
Exactly.
He is racist. So are his voters. He can’t be pissing them off by saying sorry.

It's completely ridiculous. Pre-budget everyone thought the headroom gap was £20-30bn including policy changes (e.g. on welfare). It was in fact £16bn.
It's hardly a massive difference.

I’m quite enjoying the 180 turn on a six pence from “you’ve wrecked the economy and created a black hole” to “there was no black hole and this is even worse”.

Also it's a story either way - whatever impact it has on voters. Not up to reporters to worry about the political ramifications of news.

After describing Rayner as “the best social mobility story this country has ever seen,” Starmer was asked if he missed his former deputy and said:
Yes, of course I do. I was really sad that we lost her.
Pressed as to whether she will be back in the Cabinet, he added: “Yes. She’s hugely talented.”

Zack Polanski is not his real name. He 's a hypnotist promising to enlarge womens' breasts. He left the LibDems when they didn't give him a London seat. He wants the Greens to be no longer Green but Corbynite left. He sells easy answers to hard decisions.

Obviously my family got this wrong because I was taught as a child that to be forgiven you need to be sorry and apologise first. Not, for instance, hold a press conference and bang on about Bernard Manning.
That loud clanging noise you can hear is public-school ranks closing.
This immediately makes me wonder what Rory was like as a teenager…
