It's only 10.45 in the morning and I feel as if it must be time for bed.
The house is being soft-washed today, and the men doing it said they'd arrive at the very specific time of 7.40 am. (They did too.) So I was up, showered, and dressed before I was wise.
It's not raining so I might go and do some gardening I think. I've done everything I need to do computer-wise, and Minitoo has gone for her service and MOT so we're carless for a day. So I either sit and stare aimlessly into space wondering what to do or I actually get up and do something.
There's a by-election happening today. The sitting Labour MP resigned to allow the then mayor of Manchester, Andy Burnham, to stand. Mr Burnham plans to challenge Keir Starmer for the leadership of the Labour Party.
It's all crazy and very bad. Keir Starmer is quietly getting on with things*, is very well-respected by foreign leaders, keeps calm, and works hard. By challenging the Prime Minister's leadership Burnham will throw the party into chaos, and cause untold damage regardless of whether he wins or not.
And now I'm getting cross and there's nothing I can do about the situation. So I'm hoping for a win in the by-election for Count Binface.
I think there are lots of excellent ideas on his manifesto, especially 10, 12, and 17.

It’s raining here, which interrupts my plans for the day.
I'm glad you commented on Starmer. From this distance, with poor reporting, he's been looking dithering and indecisive, not getting much done. I see now he's attending to business but it's not exciting headline stuff, so it looks as if nothing's happening.
And the mistakes are wildly magnified, like the ambassador (?) with Epstein connections. Hell, the Queen had a Russian spy working in the palace for years -- the outrage was muted there.
The reporting here is ridiculous. If you believed it then Starmer would be gone by Friday. I used to trust the BBC but not any more.
It's' tine the BBC was pensioned off. Hopeless, biased, inaccurate reporting.
It's no better than the rest of the media sadly.
