I hope that when the Sue Grey report is published, the flight to Eastern Europe will not take place before Johnson answers questions.
I realize these European meetings are a serious matter and they have to be arranged in advance according to the time other misters are free but it seems he will be able to shrug off this report like all has gone before.

Yes, I listened too. Totally out of her depth, and totally inexperienced. This is seriously worrying.

If my family was a 'military' family- I would be even more concerned and worried.

It is worrying that both Johnson and Truss will speak on peace talks or as they prefer ‘ramping it up’ to show we are just as powerful.
David Lammy spoke very well last week.

He's going to phone Putin this week, who's sure to be quaking in his boots.

I wonder how long he'll be away for - whilst the cat's away...

Sorry that should be whilst Big Dog is away.

I couldn't listen to what Truss was saying this morning as I was too busy listening to how she was saying it; has anyone else noticed the deepening of the voice, the careful precise pronunciation a la Thatcher?

Like Johnson, Truss is a mere opportunist - she used to be a Liberal Democrat, Republican, and Remainer.

At least Thatcher was true to her beliefs!

As Johnson does like to be photographed wearing all these various outfits could they not build a room in No 10 like Mr Benn had so he can go in and come out in a different costume? Then they could have various scenarios set up for him to have his photo taken and job done.

I look forward to seeing our respected PM on the Russian/Ukraine border, wearing full winter military kit, looking like a polar bear driving a tank.

Now I have no issues at all with Cressida Dick's sexuality. Or that she has another Met officer as her partner, Helen Ball, whom she appointed in 2017.

But am I the only who thinks it is 'bizarre' to say the least, that Helen Ball has been appointed to investigate Partygate for the Met. !?!?!? really?
