    Michael Holding, the cricketer, was a wonderful and beautiful athlete to watch when bowling. As a person he appears to be a well-rounded person given the way he expressed his thoughts on the current racism issue and the way history is written. Furthermore, it was a delight just to listen to the sweetness of his voice.

    That is him giving the good news to the Kremlin and asking them what they need to know. His few years in Russia needs very careful scrutiny by MI5/6.

    I read that he applied for clearance, was refused and No.10 overruled it and insisted he be given it. I despair. Where are those Brexit ****wits now who where wittering on about “unelected bureaucrats”? :emoticon-0121-angry
    Another mail to Caroline Nokes I’m afraid ........ :emoticon-0114-dull:

    Heartfelt words from Michael Holding. Deserves sharing widely.

    I can’t disagree with Peter Stefanovic. He has been fighting against the wrongdoing of this government, and the ones under alternative leadership, non-stop.
    Have I read somewhere that non payment of the licence fee has been de-criminalised, making it a civil matter now?
    I can see a lot of people withholding payment until the last possible moment and only then paying in instalments, by cheque.

    Thanks to this Government's handling of the Corona virus pandemic we don't have as many over 75s as we used to have.

    He has just one redeeming feature though otherwise I agree with everything written above. He's every bit the privileged spoiled public schoolboy that his mate Johnson is. What idiots voted to be governed by toffs?

    A couple of examples of where taxpayers money has been given to companies/businesses to make PPE despite having no experience in that area NOR did they have to tender for the contract. I smell corruption.

    Is this the smile of an assassin? He is slim, good-looking, much more intelligent than the current PM, and not really at the centre of the Brexit debate so his reputation is not really tarnished. When the time is ripe (with the UK economy being battered by huge waves caused by ·Storm Brexit), he could have garnered enough support, and here Gove is vital) to stab Johnson right between the shoulder blades and have himself installed as PM.

    Possibly disagree regarding Brexit. I think Rishi has been at the heart of it. I am convinced now that it's all turning to ratshit the nutters who were in support of it will turn on the architects. That will be the time to push rejoin.

    He's a fundamental brexiteer 3/1 to be the next tory (b)leader Gove next at 8. This man should not be trusted never mind his place of birth or footy team.

    In fact every sitting Tory MP must, by definition, be a fundamental Brexiter, or they would have been either deselected or expelled from the Party. But you’re right, Sunak has always been part of the inner cabal, which explains his rapid rise to one of the great offices of State.

    Never underestimate The Govester. The cleverest and most devious of the lot.
