Barry Cryer has left the stage, aged 86. He seems to have been there all my life, always funny in a clever/silly way that defied categorization. He was still funny in his old age. He loved comedy, but didn't want to delve into it - he once said "Analysing comedy is like disecting a duck. Nobody laug...

Toothless.... Johnson will claim it proves him blameless, it's all down to systemic issues in Downing Street. All it has done is kicked the ball down the road.

Putin likes to show himself as ...

As has been said by others, I do not accept that this is about parties, nor is it "time to move on", simply because it is always "time to move on" where Johnson is concerned.
