99% of Victorian scientists: Born the second son of upper middle class family Enters the Church Discovers some fundamental principle of biology Real passion is to tend to rare exotic orchids and entomology

As a fan of Henry James and German literature, yeah, no. Give me the semi-colons; give me five pages before we get to the main verb; give me a headache from reading.

Agios Nikolaos might be favourite place in the world. Recommend you explore Mirabello bay it’s beautiful, and Spinalonga is a cool day trip from there

Sam Coates is the epitome of vibing “I’m a serious journalist” while in fact being one of the worst Lobby trolls

I mean, it _looks_ like it was setup in 5 days. It’s an office building with “10” decal stuck to the wall. Manchester Town Hall would have looked nicer but think it’s as dilapidated as the Houses of Parliament

The fact that they were shocked at this just adds to the “they’re not good at politics” argument

Kaiserschmarrn, Cafe Landtmann, Sachertorte at Hotel Sacher (only sweet treat recommendations)

*Janan

Now would be a good time time to turn Downing Street into a museum/reception building (along with Buckingham Palace). Move into the Admiralty buildings across the road

They’re absolutely desperate to somehow be justified in backing Liz Truss

Lectern guy!

Streeting would make a good Malenkov

*Beth Rigby cuts to Swan Lake*

He also just said “he’s not entering Downing Street after an election as usual.” Is it?
