@martynpatrick.bsky.socialthat's mainly though because Steve Bray and his bloody speakers have been moved on so nobody will want to punch him for being an arse this morning while Burnham does his podium hopey-changey speech
Show PostI once had to arrange utilities disconnection for a woman who refused to read her meter as 'the cellar is haunted.' When I got the engineer's report back it read; 'Could not disconnect, was pelted with nails by unseen entity.'
Show PostIt's becoming an established attack line that Burnham "has no mandate" and "hasn't set out what he'll do". He's not becoming president. He leads the same party that governed yesterday, elected on the same manifesto. His authority comes from Parliament & he'll have to pass his measures through it.
Show Post* we bid what we hope is not a final farewell to @martynpatrick.bsky.social. And thank him for both his help and his patience
