Chuck Norris only has a beard because he doesn't want you to know his chin is Keir Starmer.

Oh wait, I'm a riff behind. Erm, something like 'Never say I'm a proud trade unionist again' but less shit.

"Mr Speaker, unlike the Prime Minister, Tomorrow Never... Oh wait, that would have worked better if it was called Tomorrow Never Lies like it it was originally supposed to have been."

(checked with Evans to see if this sounded a bit racist and he said yeah but it's all good - Red Wall and all that)

He bought a small twenty grand shed to reflect in.

Now he looks like Serafinowicz doing Alex Jones.

I'm sure he finds time for that in his premium wanking shed.

The Japanese Prime Minister visits and Johnson knows a way to make him feel at home.

Raab has criticised Rayner for going to the opera:

Quote"She was at the Glyndebourne music festival sipping champagne, listening to opera. Champagne socialism is back in the Labour Party."

As if Labour Party politicians should only drink gin and watch Eastenders. Desperate from Raab. Rayner was poor on the rail strikes but given Labour's position on them unsurprising.

i'd never vote for someone so inauthentic, no one with that accent could possibly like opera for real

In fairness, Glyndebourne is horrifically expensive and infested with corporate cunts who go along just to show off with their fucking picnics and network.  It's not really music appreciation for most.



I'd be interested to know who paid for her ticket.

Agreed. There's a lot to be said about keeping yourself insulated from the corrupting influence of the establishment. Once you get a taste of it it's easy to slip into seeing the benefits privilege brings.

Apparently tickets are £260 at most - so that's a fuck of a lot more than I (the only thing I hate more than opera is spending £260 on a ticket to see an opera) would spend, it's not exactly millionaires only.

Of course I don't think she bought it herself either. She might like opera (and/or dressing up, or picnics, or champagne), on the other hand. Nothing wrong with that.

Tories bringing it up does give the lie to the idea that it's Labour who are obsessed with class war (as if there's anything wrong with class war).

Buelligan

The prices (and availability of tickets) vary.  A good seat for La Boheme this year is £270. 

My dislike - the price is, of course, far in excess of anything I could ever, ever, spend just for my own pleasure, even if I saved all year - but my dislike of it is the dress code, the corporate aspect, the sheer exclusivity of it.  I used to know a senior partner at PWC who went frequently, just to offer freebies to the right sort of clients.  He slept through many of the performances. 

I like opera btw (not all opera but I've really loved some) so I'm not just saying this because I view all opera as the country of the privileged, more that I think Glyndebourne absolutely is.
