I still see no reason for the extension, beyond letting the bruises go down.

Any idiot can face a crisis - it's day to day living that wears you out.

It's just security brinksmanship. "We can lock 'em up for 42 days". "We'll call you and raise you to 60."

amazingly, the tories have recognised it's a silly game and are sticking at 28 and making Labour look stupid. They're actually succeeding in saying that Labour are the pissy wetting themselves party who can do nothing except shout how tough they are cos they haven't got a clue what else to do.

Even if they pass 42 days it'll be an incredible own goal, not of 10p tax band proportions, but pretty close. Even with this silly twerp trying to blow himself up, people are just so over being scared.

keep to the Fen Causeway
