Watching the film ‘Rebel Country’, a fascinating film that reinforces what I already knew …. that Hank Williams was the greatest popular (country) singer of all time. If you don’t believe me just listen to a couple of tracks, in particular ‘I’m So Lonesome I Could Cry’ …

My inference is that by this time next year, Peterborough City Council could be run by somebody who’s never had any local authority or Council experience of any sort.

Local political thought for the day …

Currently, Peterborough has no Reform UK Ltd councillors - there are local elections in May 2026.

Will Reform UK Ltd put forward candidates? If so, will they be candidates from existing parties or completely fresh candidates?

Ah! Richard Littlejohn, he who attended Deacon’s School, Peterborough - he’s a couple of years younger than me and was a little ****. Stop me and ask for details. Now lives in Florida and pontificates about the UK from there. Nice work if you can get it!

POME FOR MONE

that Michelle Mone
seller of bras, some boned
precise wealth unknown 
from whom decency long ago flown

cover now blown 
deserves to be shunned, alone
or to the wolves be thrown 
if she doesn’t atone

Thank you very much – that’s the most heartening thing I’ve read all day. Peterborough does its best, has got its faults but yes there are some really nice things about the place!
