So there I was standing in the kitchen of our son's terraced house. Something caught my eye outside in his little urban garden. It was a...
Deliver what I wonder? What they are supposed to deliver or only what they want to deliver?
ReplyDeleteBabies?
DeleteAren't postal staff employees taking industrial action at the moment? Delivery may be delayed.
ReplyDeleteYou are right. That's ironic.
DeleteI was hoping right from the start that she would win.
ReplyDeletePerhaps you imagine her trussing you up.
DeleteNo, that is exactly what she is going to do to the nation.
Delete"If the post go on strike nobody gets any heating bills". Brilliant brainwave from the new PM. Great cartoon.
ReplyDeleteShe likes to be known as Ms Truss. Sounds very like a warning - Mistrust!
DeleteDo you think Tasker is winding us all up, or do I have to banish him from my blog;) As for Truss it was inevitable. On Twitter, which I very rarely go to, there is another Liztruss, who is having great fun answering all the congratulations. For those who want to congratulate the REAL Truss, it is backward trussliz......

DeleteRemains to be seen, I would say.
DeletePerhaps you have a future as a political cartoonist!
ReplyDeleteAt almost 69 I have no future to speak of.
DeleteI saw on the news this morning that the "kissing of the hands" was going on right that moment. However the reporter said that it will most likely be just a handshake in this post covid world.
ReplyDeleteTruss as a postal worker ?
ReplyDeleteThey privatised the Post Office and ruined it in the process.
The curse of neo-liberal economics.
Broken Britain is a wasteland. The young have no future.

Stop looking on the bright side John!
DeleteWhat did cabaret artist Dieter Hildebrandt say? "In this country, no career has yet failed because of incompetence.
ReplyDeleteAs in Germany, so in England. Obviously.
Interesting to see a comment on YP's blog from someone who knows Dieter Hildebrandt!
DeleteMylady, he does even know Georg Schramm, Volker Pispers, Urban Priol, Gerhard Polt, Hagen Rether, Jürgen von Manger and Hanns- Dieter Hüsch, to name but a few. :)
