Yeah I find Ferguson a dullard. She didn’t need to but in like she did to make it clear that the coalition had absolutely no position beyond ideology which is being dictated by a fringe loon faction. She's great - sadly, the Pollies know they can get away with not answering her due to the rest of t...

It is the actions of Trump and his lackey and mouthpiece, Johnson and Leavitt, that suggest that something is not quite right in the House of Mar a Lago. I mean, everyone knows he's a nonce and a sex pest. He's admitted it multiple times. The only issue is that there could be 4K footage of him havi...

Couldn't agree more. It's fine, the second half of the season finds its legs imo. I do agree it's a little more 'unrealistic' than the first two seasons. Some of the decision making is clearly poor for plot reasons rather than what a real person would do. The president and spymaster especially. ---...

I had a reply from Tim Satchell who is one of the senior managers at Planet Rugby. He asked me if James While (Jake) knew about it. I said he had been sent messages but not heard back. Hopefully Tim might get something done. That’s a positive outcome Grandpa. Fingers crossed again! Yes I saw in one...

I assume I'll get round to finishing it at some stage, but it's definitely not up at the same level as Utopia for me, I binged all the original seasons, I had a gap even in season 1 of Fisk.

Halfway through Season 3 of The Diplomat. A big let down so far. It has all the appearance of a show that they didn't expect to get a 3rd Season from, so they didn't put enough plot in the first 2 to support one. They've had to crowbar in a totally new direction and have lost 50% of the charm by si...

Fisk is like a diluted Utopia for me. I've watched the first season but never got round to watching past there (will do at some stage). I think Utopia is easily a level above Fisk. So will be interesting to hear your thoughts if you do watch it. Fisk gets funnier as it progresses. Utopia is supreme...

He posted various "no innocents in Gaza" excuses.

No idea about that event, in the war zone of a war started by the Gazans. I presume the IDF issued any clarification on that.
