It is basically a coin flip. Heads you believe Burnham tails, you would also believe Burnham. If the coin lands on its edge, then you might believe Johnson.

By that argument, I am Welsh, and the next 3 generations are also Welsh. That is a bit of a bombshell because I woke up this morning thinking I was English. Oh well....

I am sad to say we aren’t better than this. Too many politicians have drawn from "legitimate concerns" well. They should have known better, but for a few cheap votes, they let this genie out of the bottle. It won't be easy to get it back in.

Their performance had a near perfect correlation with the social economic makeup of their branches' catchment area. In other words, the most highly geared pay scheme since Glengarry Glen Ross had virtually no impact on performance.

I was once involved in the takeover of a bunch of salespeople selling financial service products from about 100 branches of a building society. The bonus scheme was one of the most highly geared I had ever come across.

I actually agree with one argument in the article it is impossible for the Government to ride both horses at the same time. It is made doubly difficult because one nags was hauled off to the knackers yard at least 5 years ago. To mix my metaphors Do Brexit Properly....

The squad looked badly put together and generally poor for large parts of the season. A significant rebuild in that context should be welcomed.

That is before anybody is sold to balance the books or because they no longer fit Morrison's (???) preferred tactical setup. So overall, we could quite easily lose half the squad. That's quite the task to replace in one summer. However, despite the late season rally,

There is going to be a significant turnover this summer. We have 4 players out of contract and 5 on loan. The only one of which I can see back at the club is O'Leary. I don't think Palace will let Danny Imray go, which is a pity. That's 8 players to be replaced.

I don't know if it benefits anybody to tidy up Reform's cadidate roster through public hew and cry. They are all this bad it is just some are a little bit more artful in the messaging. Culling the idiots just leaves the more beguiling reptiles.

As an atheist (or ever bodies infidel), I find religious zealots a little worrying. However, a few blokes praying to one non-existent deity or another in Trafalgar Square is hardly an act of domination. We are ill served by those who want to think it is.
