Quite - how many armoured divisions does Polanski have?

The Guardian spotting the big stories of the day again... or is it just more clickbait under Viner?

When did that happen, Andrew?

That whole article sums up Viner's clickbait Guardian, vapid, lazy and inconsequential, referring to sludge like it's high culture.

You're not a serious newspaper any more.

Could the Daily Mail (and its readers) be even more moronic than this?

I think Burnham is mostly pro-Burnham.

Is it now your job to uncritically repeat whatever a discredited politician says, even when it is quite blatantly false?

A troop is a unit of soldiers, the individual soldier is a trooper. Or soldier. Usual rubbish from Viner's Guardian. The mighty have fallen...

But the outgoing head of Ofcom said GB News was just 'saying what everybody's thinking' - so no help there... (and he should have been fired years ago)

The Viner Guardian continuing to highlight the big stories of the day... I actually subscribe to this rubbish, and I'm wondering why.

I considered resigning my membership, but decided against, so that I can vote for a genuine Labour leader now, and when the Cock of the North buggers off. But I understand and respect your decision.

I clearly don't have your intuition or, indeed, moral compass.

Then you are confusing success with treachery.

Stupid. As we've come to expect from Viner's comic. How the mighty have fallen...

Who the fuck do they think they are?

So the Guardian is now the official mouthpiece for Plankski and his 6th form politics? How the mighty have fallen...

I remember when the ILEA polled parents on whether they wanted mixed or single sex schools. Turned out they wanted mixed schools for boys and single-sex schools for girls. People...

Who is Karl Turner, and why should I care what he thinks? The opinions of a nonentity do not interest me.

Newsflash, Andy Burnham is not the PM and may never be the PM. He's now an MP who managed the magnificent feat of holding a Labour held seat, a seat held by Labour since 1983, in an unnecessary by-election engineered by him and Josh Simons. A shameful, shabby episode worthy of the Tory party.

The Ukrainian president thanked the prime minister for the “cooperation, support, and the joint decisions that have helped make our Europe and our protection of life stronger”. But hey - no contest - the King of the North sorted some bus routes in Manchester...

Can I just say that Burnham doesn't have the look or presence of a national leader - and Streeting would have severe problems as a supply teacher in a primary school. Appearance matters (remember Robin Cook?).

Couldn't agree more.

Starmer saved the party from the unhinged support for a supremely egotistical populist, and now it seems a big chunk of the membership is preparing to make the same mistake again.

I don't vote for treacherous egoists. He's a poor candidate, he'll fail if he ever be4comes PM.

They should be asked how their policies will differ from the manifesto they were given a mandate for just two years ago...

Keep it up, Guardian, you'll get your psychodrama -but it won't make Zak Plankski PM however much Viner bigs him up.
