4. There was a Boris quote about Starmer I’ll not repeat

There was also a question I was asked about traffic here and again … think it through. Medium traffic was enough to see what happened to ONO, sub medium helps that we’re more free to move, to put what we find, after checking, verifying etc, and not in an organised way. High traffic, by definition, means I cannot know all the main players, must then consider registering. No point fixing what still ain’t broke.

Either they have the numbers against confirming and are making the nominees sweat … or they are not sure of the numbers after close of grilling … or the numbers seemed to be for confirmation, so the heavy mob now move in to “persuade” holdouts still voting “for” confirmation.
Whilst it’s of course quite wrong, plus they cannot afford revelations such as that about Bernie Sanders and must go in camera to hide it … Monday their time will tell.
