I’m intrigued how she managed to eat wearing that enormously weird bow. Any ‘normal’ person ie me would have dropped food down it straight away. In addition moving her head must have been awkward. Very strange choice for a formal head of state dinner. All eyes look at me just like her husband.

Tories would prevent long-term jobless spending benefits on alcohol and cigarettes This reminds me of working in collections for a financial institution in 1980s we had to ask if customers smoked or had a pet. If they couldn’t meet the payments we told them to get rid of the dog and stop smoking.
