Not my favourite interiors stylist but Banjo and Ro are great and this is joyful television.

I always think ‘SUV wanker’ and particularly ‘Range Rover Wanker’
Anyone who drives an SUV does not give a toss about other peoples’ kids or even the environment their own kids and grandkids will live in.

I would support nurses and other lower paid NHS staff if they were to strike over pay.
And I previously supported resident doctors. But this strike is BMA induced madness.
BMA leadership needs an overhaul - they seem callously indifferent to patients and the rebuilding of the NHS.

I am up for all these, except perhaps a bakery crawl - one trip a day is enough!

Auto-enrolment is one of the few big success stories of any shade of Government in recent years.
Raising contributions over time is part of the plan to ensure every low/middle income worker has a decent pension.
Helpful if we could focus on policy merits - not the person making the announcement…

NHS Pay 3
This Government often makes me angry - but on the NHS they are putting money in that’s needed. So c’mon resident doctors stop this selfish action and put patients first!

NHS Pay Part 2
I supported resident (junior) doctors past strike action. But that was resolved and they had a decent pay deal and now have an offer far in excess of nurses.
I do not support this ill advised strike action at such short notice. The BMA cares nothing for patients or the NHS.
