RIGHT DECISION? OUR VIEW
whole selection smells to high heaven, but is also a distinct flavour of things to come should they get into power.
To be quite honest I think Starmer comes over a bit weak and pretty easily dominated.
Hold tight Starmer, you may be in for a rough ride. Rayner is already licking her lips! She still has problems raising a smile.
Probably waiting to be posed on the steps of number 10. Personally I’m all in favour. Not of the left, but certainly putting the girls in charge.
History is full of female dominance. Amazons, Queens, Conquering Warriors, World Leaders, Ex Wives. In Africa whole tribes of female warriors have dominated large chunks of its warlike history. Now there’s an interesting thought! Come on girls. Let’s get it on. Chariots of fire an’ all that. You know you love it really.

FOLLOWING a week of dramatic twists and turns in the fate of Gary Lineker’s career at the BBC, the question now is; was putting him back on air ultimately the right decision?
The BBC known worldwide for its emphasis on unbiased news is one of the UK’s longest running and best known institutions. In turn, Gary Lineker is one of the nation’s best loved former footballers.
His decision to tweet his opinion on the government’s rhetoric around the immigration crisis is, clearly, something that any individual should be free to do.
But should that individual then be able to keep their job and, crucially, high salaryif they fail to play by their wage payer’s rules?
After a presenterless Match of the Day where all of Lineker’s colleagues refused to go on air without him, the BBC said they hadn’t backed down by resintating Linker and much was also made of the fact that he is a freelance presenter, not an employee.
However, despite Lineker’s doubtless good intentions over immigration, his desire to have both the cake (his wage and the fame the BBC gig brings him) and eat by disregarding what the BBC stands for.
