Remembering Sir Alec Guinness who passed away on this date in 2000 😇🙏

So Badenoch would recruit a neo-Nazi but *not* someone who didn’t want to leave the ECHR or someone who supported our NetZero commitments. Second chances for this guy but not Dominic Grieve. The Tory party is truly wretched. It’s screwed the country, betrayed its own and lost its tiny mind.

It's like that bit where blunt weapons, famously used to hit people covered in meat, don't impede zombies (famously made out of meat) despite their propensity to absolutely fuck bones up.

This is the sad reality of so many small businesses now. While billionaires are propped up, red tape and surmounting costs are only hurting indies.
