Ahahahahaha, local business that recorded themselves sticking a load of Union Jacks to lampposts all about town are currently pissing and moaning about finally Finding Out.

A letter from North Yorkshire Council to some local flag botherers, charging them £36.27 per flag + VAT for all the flags they stuck up on lampposts.

They stuck up 64 flags

Interviewer: Zarah Sultana is obviously another big voice in the party

Corbyn: Yes, she's here

Interviewer: Are you friends?

Corbyn: We're colleagues in parliament and we obviously communicate and we'll see each other tomorrow in the conference.

They give the impression of great heroism and prowess though. I find that a little galling.

Fairly certain Kemi Badenoch is hoping that nobody has noticed this.

Pretty brazen...

Kemi Badenoch

unchristian

Kemi Badenoch, the leader of the Conservative
Party in the United Kingdom, has revealed that
she no longer believes in God.
