I've been working in Poole and Bournemouth the last couple of days. It's been great but not very productive.

The daily mails front page was basically laughing and making fun of the heat. Calling everyone Snowflakes. They even highlighted that Prince Charles didn't take his jacket off...
Probably because lizards like the heat.

Snowflake Britain had a Melt down

was the headline, having a go about the advice not to travel or the school closures and flight cancellations.

Their just playing up to the gammons shouting "its just a bit warm" and "we had heat like this in the 70s and we worked through it"

You may see one of these red faced idiots wandering about shirtless thier distinctive markings make them stand out a bright red neck and back, in this heat they will also have a disposable barbecue underarm, i wouldn't recommend approach them normally but offering them a can of stellar to re-hydrate may save their life.

We deffo didn't have heat like this in 76 which brings its own problems but the heatwave then lasted a couple of months.

Extinction Rebellion just smashed the windows of The Sun.

Not the glowing ball of fire thing, the newspaper.

[Anpanman]

It would be bad if it was the real Sun but we would only find out about it roughly eight minutes after it happened.

The Sun. A newspaper for kernts, funded by kernts, and written by kernts.

Badenoch is out of the race but the numbers suggest Truss will be making the final two against Sunak. He's way in front but polling suggests Truss will ultimately be PM meaning literally not an inch of the Tory mess is salvageable at this point. Everything is ******

[prinnysquad]

Truss. Another liar. Barefaced lies vomited onto the lectern about her background and education the other night.

Detest her, she's the conservative equivalent of Thornberry.
Also Shapps, remember him getting caught out lying on QT, he came out after and said something utterly stupid like 'I over affirmed my response' in other words you lied.

Liar or not, her past appearances shows us what a useless individual she is. Why on earth would anyone even consider her? And sunak is as slimy as a wet eel. So sad when we see people like this even being allowed to run for PM.

A bad day for the Tories, a bad day for the country, a great day for Labour

[MartyG]

Truss would be worse than Johnson, at least Johnson had an entertainment value. Sunak would be the least bad of the three, but he's never going to win a member's ballot if the polling is accurate.

Seems that the Tories are simply opting for more of the same, rather than the well-needed change that's actually required - lack of talent in the party coupled with a harder shift to the right has set that unmoveable course.

[QualityChimp]

To be honest, I'm happy with them picking the worst person for the job.

Going to be a tough time to the next general election, but so much easier to knock them out if there's a chump in charge and can no longer ride the "get Brexit done" coattails.
