Unless we've got long term investment coming in - I would be taking as few risks as possible unfortunately

I don't know if it's been mentioned on here already. But Widow's Bay is really good. It's a creepy horror type thing - but with the same writers as Parks and Recreation so very funny in parts. Well written and very well acted too. Don't generally watch much TV but this is excellent 👌

From his sex shop/porno days maybe?

No, they aren't always the same thing. But they frequently correlate. Especially at an institution like Harvard. He's also been a practising barrister in England and the US. Those aren't positions you just stumble into. Whether that intelligence translates into sound political judgement depends more on your views on the positions he takes. But he's clearly an intelligent man.

He's got a law degree from Harvard. I'm going to take a wild stab in the dark and presume he's a bit brighter than the bloke running for Reform in Makerfield. Although probably less likely to know how to fix a leak under your sink. That's not to say DL has never said anything daft - but intellectually Lammy is in a different league altogether. And probably than most people who have ever posted on this forum.

From what I've seen. Those three are towering intellectual giants compared to this guy! 🤣

I'm not sure I agree with that. I think they have a plan about his they're going to do it. But that plan often falls apart as soon as it hits the real world. I'd still expect an MP to have a bit of an understanding about a flagship policy mind. Or at least be able to come up with a plausible answer. I'm not going to expect anything more or less than I would of any MP, just because he's northern and working class. There's plenty of very bright northern, working class people. He doesn't strike me as one of them mind.

No - we want someone who is hoping to represent his party and constituency to understand the policies of his own party. It's the 'equality of opportunity' vs 'equality of outcome' arguments that we've been having for a long time in the public sector. The heart is probably in the right place - but whether it causes more problems than it solves is a different matter.

Even ChatGPT recommends Claude for coding 😁

I can't believe I managed to miss it! 🤣

Claude. But I do find it a bit preachy at times. It tends to make value judgements as opposed to just work as a tool.

😁

That's an interesting thought experiment. What is leading you to conclude that?

"I love women me. My mum was one and everything" 🫣

Congratulations 🙂🙂🙂

What an absolute slimeball

I do not like Badenoch but this attack advert on her is a disgrace. Where's that from mate?

I've literally no opinion on this. But these photos are just to illustrate the ways that this are being reported and why we all need to read around a bit!

I'd love to see Bolty on MDMA. Be a life changing experience for him! 😁

Sorry - didn't see this before I started off a post moaning! 😁

Not sure I'm a fan of this new look on Android! 😁

I'm going to assume you don't know much about MMA

"It was a ceremonial bin" Seems to be the joke doing the rounds on social media. Which I admit did make me giggle.

That seems to be the most likely explanation to me too
