Dominic Grieve absolutely nails it about the character of Boris Johnson and the cowardice of many Tory MPs under him. xitter.cf/Doozy_45/status/117724…

Just 27% of the British public think Boris Johnson's prorogation of Parliament is acceptable. Suspending democracy is a sign of weakness not strength. Johnson knows No Deal would be rejected by the public and Parliament in a vote. It's time to demand our democratic rights.

There's Tottenham Hale
Urgent Question of the Day: Has the word "hale" ever been seen in the wild without it being tethered to "and hearty"?

Attlee seemed to do OK...
Jacob Rees-Mogg defends Boris Johnson insulting Muslim women because "politicians musn't be bland and boring and dull. They must say things that cut through to voters". Fine, but politicians also must not be Islamophobic. What an utter disgrace.

From rolling back women's reproductive rights to defending white supremacists and far-right nationalists - President Trump's behaviour flies in the face of ideals America was founded upon. As the US's closest friends we have a duty to speak out. #Ridge

Never mind the thousands of lies, the misogyny, the racism, the self-confessed sex offending, the forced separation of children from their parents or the moral & financial bankruptcies, as a former purveyor of high end menswear (Aquascutum 1993-98), I find this truly disgusting.

Pepys also kept in eagle in his house, which 'shat mightily'
To dinner with my father and sister and family; and with a sparrow that our Mercer hath brought up now for three weeks, which is so tame that it flies up and down, and upon the table, and eats and pecks, and do everything so pleasantly, that we are mightily pleased with it.
An odd thing for Mrs Pepys to do.
To my office, and thither my wife comes, to tell me that if I would see the handsomest woman in England, I shall come home presently; and who should it be but the pretty lady of our parish, that did heretofore sit on the other side of our church, over against our gallery.
You could go off someone like that, though.
Replying to @samuelpepys
Among other things, had a fellow that imitated all manner of birds, and dogs, and hogs, with his voice, which was mighty pleasant.
Not in those trousers.... Re:Joyce

Having looked at this again you could make the case for the guy being fined for telling the police to "f*** off," which is clearly illegal and stupid behaviour. So if you are the police you can say there was no punishment for covering his face, just for the yobbish behaviour.

Lord! to see with what itching desire I did endeavour to see Bagwell’s wife, but failed, for which I am glad, only I observe the folly of my mind that cannot refrain from pleasure at a season above all others in my life requisite for me to shew my utmost care in.

Interestingly 'probably balls' is equally alliterative.
If I was going to get all Eng Lit I would say "knock ... boats ... net webbed wall" somehow creates a sort of sonic net of alliteration with the b and n sounds. Unfortunately that's probably balls
