Seventeen to form a fact -finding committee to discuss the over-use of LB24. After 10 months of debate, there will be an inquiry into the findings of this committee, and 21 members will discuss the ramifications. After a further year the Under-Secretary of Public Works will call a press conference to announce increased budget spending to increase efficiency of the Department.

A PUZZLE. This fellow has eight stitches, a broken nose and a dislocated shoulder. But how did it happen? Here’s his story.
“I was sitting with my phone and my wife was watching her favourite TV programme. I asked her to fetch me a beer from the kitchen. She said no, she was watching TV.
“I phoned her number. Her phone rang in the kitchen. She got up, went through and answered it.
“I said: ‘Seeing you’re there, can you fetch me a beer?’ After that I don’t remember anything at all …”

THE three bears are out of work after the whole Goldilocks scandal.
They get offered a day’s work on a building site, and the foreman gives them a task and some picks.
Giving them their tools he says: , “Don’t lose them”.
After working all morning dinner arrives, and off they pop for lunch.
On returning from their break, they discover that their picks have gone.
Fearful of losing their jobs they reluctantly report it to their boss who starts laughing and sings.
“Today’s the day the teddy bears have their picks nicked”

Were Tris still with us, Munguin would by now have him knocking out some Random Thoughts. No shortage, even from my distant perspective, and I’d have thought Munguinites would already be in action with comment. OK, still coming up 08:00 in Scotland, but here’s a few to help get the conversation going. And that’s just from a quick skim of the headlines on the UK page on the Eeb’s website…
• “Costs for tea bags, milk and sugar all rose as food price inflation jumped from 10.6% last month to 11.6%, the BRC-NielsenIQ price index found.”
– Beer at £8 a pint is bad enough, but now falling back on the time-honured cup of tea is being priced out of reach. Or is it? What news from the front-line at Lipton’s?
• “Matt Hancock defends joining I’m A Celebrity cast”
– Does anyone care? The guy’s a proven eejit and therefore eminently qualified to take part.
• “Police vetting lets in wrong people too often – report”
– Ah, that could explain the high turnover of prime ministers and cabinet members. But no… the story’s about people joining or already in the police. In my distant youth, several teuchter uncles managed. Even if one of them (along with many other alleged perpetrators) was accused of dragging a dead horse from Sauchiehall Street to Hope Street, all the easier to write an incident report.
On the Great Britbin (Far Northern Region) pages, I read:
• “Lives ‘at risk’ in strikes and ‘anarchy’ in Dundee”
– What?? Anarchy just because Tris and Minguin are out of town? Readers may also be able to tell me about Kirkton. There’s a line in Tam o Shanter, ‘And in the Lord’s hoose, e’en on Sunday, ye’d drink wi Kirkton Jean till Monday.’ Seems a far ride from Alloway to Dundee to find a drinking partner (or fellow kirk-ganger).
OK. Enough there to be getting on with. Visiting MNR and finding othing new – post or comment – is a bit sisconcerting, even if it is almost 10:00 here and I’mwell topped up with caffeine, nicotine, and the various other pills and potions deemed essential for continued existence.

“Ah, John”, says Munguin. “It’s just as well I can count on my head of Bulgarian Office to keep things going when the lazy scoundrel Tris, is lying tanning himself in the grey drizzle of a Scottish November”.
I saw some photographs of the police that England has been taking on to fulfil the promise of part replacing the 20,000 police they paid off over the last 12 years, presumably believing that there was no longer any crime in England.
Scarily they all looked, erm, how can I put this politely… a little rounded… well, fat actually. Their bellies were hanging over their trousers.
I reckon your average crook will be thinking…. yup, can get away from that pretty easily at a trot.
Kirkton is worrying. One of the people who lives there, and is probably a bit more in touch with the situation says there is a huge amount of discontent among the youths. Cold and hungry… and without hope (but seemingly with sufficient funds to buy fireworks). So who knows. Time all fireworks were banned in Scotland.
I fear we may be in for a lot more of this…all over the UK, as things get worse over the winter.
People will only get poorer, putting the heating on will become more worrying, getting enough to eat, when food inflation is over 11%, and the UK government bragging about the £400 they are giving to each family and assuming that it is enough. Worse still, Covid will almost certainly rise again.
How someone as rich as Rishi can know what poverty feels like, is beyond me.
A winter of discontent, I think.
As for the slimy Matt Handcock… No words. Doesn’t he have a job? I’ve never watched this Celebrity programme but I assume it will take weeks.
He should not be paid his salary when he’s doing it… If it were any other job, he would be sacked. If he worked on the cigarette counter in Tesco he would be, so why not a failed minister.
But it seems the thing to do. Dorries did it, as did Dugdale… and of course, Johnson seems to do whatever he wants to do… lecturing in the USA and holidaying in the Caribbean, all when they are being paid £80,000+ a year to be in London or Edinburgh.
That would make paying the electricity bill easier.
Munguin says, your extra effort is worth a 5% bonus on this month’s stipend. Don’t spend it all at once.

My God is there NO ONE safe from being targeted by Tories………
See it’s always black and white with no grey areas for Tory Tw*ts (rhymes with RATS)…..as far as Parris is concerned there is obviously no reasons why perhaps some people turn to food as opposed to alcohol or drugs to find a way to cope……so let’s add yet ANOTHER label…an offensive one….start shouting FATTY at those STRANGERS we see in the street who are overweight……perhaps as a double whammy we can do it at a time when there is a tragedy in their lives….like say when someone close to them has died…..where we who are supposed to ” Fat shame them” by “speaking out” are oblivious to this…..but hey…..they are fat so easy targets………they deserve all they get for being FAT do they not….always simples to a Tory is it not…..same ones who cannot govern a country without being incompetent, corrupt and unfit to have any power or influence…….are we allowed to FAT SHAME an overweight Tory MP then Matthew…well that should raise the level of debate in the HOC…..actually will bring it down to same level the Tory MP’s usually operate at………..and also their failed leaders who ‘play at’ being the PM (on a TEMPORARY basis that is)………
Matthew Parris can Foxtrot Oscar…….with his licence for arse*oles (rhymes with Farce Trolls) to feel more empowered to (what I think they do anyway) offend and demonise others….a Tory speciality in their and his UK………
Matthew BTW would be the first to object to fat Tory MP’s being targeted in a debate as that would be a moment where ” speaking out” in highlighting the excessive girth of someone ,would to him , be seen as most inappropriate……perhaps Matthew’s column on overweight people in the UK was his Tory mindset deploying a quite unsubtle take …..in highlighting a warped logic Tories have when trying to demonstrate (badly) their Tory point of view on something …..as in ‘ if there is a cost of living crisis with high food prices then why are so many people in the UK overweight” ?…………also can be interpreted as ” What they Can’t afford to buy food …why then are so many of them overweight” ?………
Does anyone know many overweight people who , Matthew says, “Feel comfortable about being overweight” ?…….comfortable ?……….obviously Matthew knows the square root of jack sh*t (rhymes with PIT) about how people really feel about being overweight…..and their constant battle in trying to lose weight……..not helped when they live in Tory UK Brexitland….which is engulfed in constant chaos, instability and crisis after crisis caused largely by Matthew’s TORY party….indeed it’s enough to make anyone turn to a cream doughnut or two…just to comfort yourself……but Matthew has THE answer to solve all obesity…..time for all those Doctors who specialise in this area and also all nutritionists to STAND DOWN…..who knew the best way to solve obesity was just to shout FATTY at strangers………..another NON solution courtesy of a TORY…..God give me strength…..how will we endure this constant sh*t (rhymes with BRIT) that flows from their mouths ……when their brains refuse, not fail, to engage…….
Here is MY take on Matthew’s column that I direct at Matthew :

I’m looking forward to hearing the tories abuse their english defense secretary on the ONE year’s delay in the commissioning of HMS Glasgow and being over budget.
Add in the £1.6 billion order for fleet support ships going to a Spanish Shipyard consortium.
Will the uk government delay the order for another 12 F35s at a cost of £1oom each.
SS2 trains?
The new battery factory?
Seems that sunak stopped the free movement of people, except for the 40,000 that have ceossed the channel and cost him/us £6m a day in hotel bills.
Wonder if we can claim the £700+ a week instead of the £180 a week pension.
Programme Yarrow is setting up plans for 7 day blackouts, seems you’ll get told by R2 and R4 if you still own an analog radio, won’t work on a digital radio. Make sure it works with batteries and you have spares.
You won’t be moving far.
Pity that liz smith isn’t in charge of the economy as she’susing next year’s budget for this year.
It’s so good to have the englanders steal the oil and gas.
Listened to sunak tell parliament that he is taxing the energy companies with his windfall tax, pity about the get out santa clause, no tax if you promise to invest in the North Sea, you all know it’s run out by now.

Why did the Brits refuse the offer from the French gov to open an office in France and process the refugees there?
So, I don’t have an analogue radio so I guess I’ll know when the power goes off when the lights go out and I start to feel cold.
Great. The joys of living in global Britain.
