I think he meant to say that there were enough ministers at his cabinet meeting for a dinner party..... It must be the after effects of that terrible illness he had.

"Efforts" - presumably a vinyl sign has been produced. That'll fix it...

Why is his face not pixelated?

Any evidence of this 'huge damage' and 'economic damage' or is this just an opinion based on no evidence?

And next week we will have the announcement of the Virtual Brown Envelope....

Except the monarch has to give the Royal Assent before any Bill can be made an Act. The monarch has no role in parliament, but does have a role in government. This was established after the shenanigans of Charles I who ended up being banned from the Commons - hence the need for Black Rod as the monarch was banned from entering the Commons. The monarch is the Head of State and is Head of the Church of England. They are the one who, after an election, gives consent to the person visiting the right to form a government and the one who can prorogue parliament - last used legally in 1997 when Major wanted to avoid any debate on the 'Cash for Questions' scandal.

Discussing this with the French President is like talking to him about the price of fish in Huddersfield market. I suppose he could have discussed about not having a GP - like France in 2023 and 2024...

Lee Anderthal is clearly a man of great principle as he was a supporter of the idea that any MP who changed parties mid-stream should always call a by-election. Except when it comes to him..... Just another useless shouty gammon....

'World' Songkran?????

And with a gigantic puff of smoke, within 24 hours, 200 new immigration officers suddenly appear... Quite an intensive training course it seems....

Except, of course, the story is a bit short on detail. Like the fact that the fund was set up in December 2022 with £119m being allocated and the additional £237m was added in December 2023. It is a fund to be used globally, not just in Thailand and so far Egypt, Indonesia, Kenya, Malaysia, Philippines, Turkey and Vietnam have shown interest in the fund. Grants of up to £100,000 can be awarded to UK institutions to collaborate in research. Not quite the magic money pit it is being puffed up as being. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/international-science-partnerships-fund-ispf/international-science-partnerships-fund-ispf https://opportunities-insight.britishcouncil.org/news/opportunities/grants-international-research-collaborations

Another new word to add to the dictionary - Kazakhstani. Presumably this replaces the proper word Kazakh which those people had been using for centuries. Next - Thailanders
