She discloses confidential sources, something a 'journalist' is never supposed to do. Firstly she did it in 2013 with Vicky Pryce. from Wiki:

In 2013, while at The Sunday Times, she persuaded Vicky Pryce to implicate Pryce's estranged husband, former Liberal Democrat MP and Cabinet minister Chris Huhne, in having committed the offence of perverting the course of justice, leading to the case R v Huhne, and to both Pryce and Huhne being convicted and imprisoned.

Then, more recently she leaked all of Matt Hancock's private What's App messages. You could argue as some do that it was in the public interest, I can see that. But for me the only reason she does these things is for money and notoriety, not for some public good. She's a nasty piece of work with no ethics. In my opinion. Plus she's got a monotone droney voice and a face like a slapped-arse ... an even bigger crime. 😬
She also broke the story about David Cameron and the pig's head. She later admitted that there was no proof of it happening and that it could have been a figment of somebody's imagination. But it was great publicity for promoting the book she co-wrote in which the story appeared.
 
I didn’t enjoy Nick’s general knowledge quizzing of elderly callers n the last part of the programme. Pretty patronising especially when he found it necessary to give them clues to get to the right answer. Very old school Ferrari.
I also didn’t like his confession to his chief political editor that he and the production team had been shaving time off the 30 seconds she is given for the daily election round up because “she was getting too good”. Unpleasant boys teasing the girl vibes.

O gawd! It was just a bit of fun. 🙄
 
Is it possible The Tories could be completely wiped out and Reform be the largest Party after Labour? With Nigel at the Dispatch Box opposite Sir Kier during PMQ's? You know what ... that would be bleeping HILARIOUS. :ROFLMAO:
It would be indeed. But the problem with Reform is the question of who the shadow cabinet would be. Like who are they? Apart from Farage and Tice I don’t have a scooby. That’s a concern and makes them non viable considering the skeletons falling out of cupboards.

Speaking of shadow cabinet, where the duck is future foreign secretary David Lammy? I’ve not seen sight nor sound of the twit in the campaign so far. Why is Starmer/Labour Campaign HQ hiding him?

Imagine what that would do to Jimbo....

If Farage does not win his seat in such a scenario then Reform will appoint him to the House of Lords. Thus Farage will become the Earl of Dover which will really rub Jimbo's face in it.
 
Good. He’s absolutely useless. Pray to God they don’t revert to Thornbury for it. In fact who in the Labour Party would be fitting to represent the U.K. on the world stage?

Answers on a postcard.
Talk of bringing in Douglas Alexander if he wins his seat in Scotchland
Poor, poor Colin in Windsor - Scotland 4 goals and 1 man down against Germany. It's too painful even for an England supporter to watch. 😭


He was tweeting abuse at some Reform candidates while the game was on. Probably turned the TV off in a manchild huff

I was only joking about Farridge being opposition leader, it would be an actual nightmare and I actually don't think it would happen ... the men in dark suits in the shadows wouldn't let it. Not that I'm a conspiracy theorist, but I think the security services or whoever really pulls the strings behind the scenes would step-in.

Poor old Lammy, personally I think he should leave politics and take up his calling. The Reverend David Lammy, available for punditry on GB News, Storm Huntley, Jeremy Vine and Sunday Morning Live. I think his calling is to preach and teach the good word. Amen.
