The ‘weekend wobble’ is a new phrase to leap into our General Election top ten as we go into week 6 of the campaign. For the first time since the snap election was called, the Conservative Party found themselves on the back foot and suddenly that whopping majority everybody’s been forecasting doesn’t look so certain. […]
Panto season is officially here. After the past few weeks of party dress rehearsals, yesterday the theatre came to town and we saw the full cast on stage for the first time since this General Election began. After all the posturing, posing, sloganeering and prevaricating, it was a pivotal day in this campaign. As with […]
In 1977, Nottingham Magistrate’s Court was the scene of a well publicised indecency case revolving around the use of the word b****cks – or to be more specific, its use in the title of the debut album by the Sex Pistols (as in Never Mind The…).

I am talking about […]
May the Fourth Be With You… Aside from this election being the ‘most important in a generation’ (currently bubbling just inside our top ten of campaign slogans), it is also perhaps the only opportunity in a generation to mesh the race for PM with the mighty Star Wars… So I invite you to pause for […]
Labour Suffer Another Election Interview Fall Just what the Labour party didn’t need at the beginning of week 3 of this election – another big media gaffe! It’s highly possible that the corridors of Labour Party HQ were echoing to the sounds of the Britney Spears classic ‘Oops we did it again!’ yesterday as Diane […]
Parliament signed off ahead of the election yesterday with a final exchange of blows across the House floor. In what was one of the longest Prime Minister’s Questions in memory (58 minutes), Theresa May and Jeremy Corbyn squared off for what could be the last time. Both party leaders are on a crusade this election […]
In the absence of any sensational speeches or interviews over the weekend this side of the Channel, it is hard not to defer to our French neighbours for something exciting in the world of politics. The Tories may be dreaming of how many seats they can grab from Labour and the SNP; Labour may be […]
