As a keen gardener, I think she said "Lettuce spray".

Might be unnecessary, but I wouldn't call it incorrect. Missing the "ed" on the end of "recommend", however...

Using terms like "bean counter" is just as bad as the "bean counters" looking down on those who work with their hands, in my opinion. I'm sure we need people to perform all sorts of roles in society, even the telephone sanitizers, although I do think the remuneration is unfairly tilted towards...

Positive discrimination is sometimes the only way out of a self perpetuating imbalance. Women in company boardrooms, for example. Of course I agree that, in principle, selection should be based on ability, but in practice it often isn't.

Oh no! That's where it all started! We're going to get stuck in an endless loop...

On the other hand, the idea that the Tories need to go to Rwanda is a great idea.

Are terriers cheaper in Devon? For me, that would represent a cost of 2 or 3 grand. I could hire the Pied Piper of Hamlin for less.

I think it depends on your individual policy, a lot have windscreen exemption. Maybe they all do, nowadays, but I'd be surprised. The last car we bought had a badly scratched screen, and the dealer suggested we claimed for a replacement on insurance, and they would pay the excess. This was a big...

Well, you've convinced me. I shall be voting for the party that's best for your pension. There was I, worrying about decency, morality, humanity and equality! A bit of perspective was all I needed!

Where in this country are you going to find a glass of fresh drinking water?

In my experience the six Albanians(or Polish in my case) do a much better job, especially if you want the inside cleaned as well. Certainly not cheaper than the machine, though. Funny, I hear a lot of people complaining about the opposite thing when it comes to supermarket checkouts, used to be...

Reform! Anti vaxxer, pro Brexit anti foreigners. Lee Anderson, "Nigel" and Jacob Rees Mogg's sister, Richard Tice... What do you get if you cross Lee Anderson with Richard Tice?

How so? What are their plans for the education system?

What relevance does that have, and how would things be different today if Brown (no relation) hadn't sold off the gold reserves?

Since the Rwanda scheme won't work anyway, why is a credible alternative needed? If you said you were going to only eat unripe bananas for 5 months, and I said I thought it was a bad idea, would you expect me to come up with a credible alternative? Regardless, here's a credible alternative...

I heard(or more likely read) the phrase "performative cruelty" the other day. Totally sums up the Rwanda scheme, as far as I'm concerned. It almost certainly won't deter anybody desperate enough to attempt a small boat crossing, but strongly appeals to the mean streak in a lot of voters.

While I agree with the sentiment, I wasn't aware that you could vote at twelve in Cornwall.

That is indeed a problem, although to be fair, a lot of modern ICE cars are whisper quiet (or I'm deafer than I thought).

We live in a strange sad world when people are paranoid about clearing snow from the pavement, waving somebody across the road, or fixing a bike for fear of being sued, but water companies can poison people with sewage and mail delivery companies can hound people into despair or worse, and seem...

Why the apostrophe?
