You can see it coming now: England wins the World Cup on July 19th, a day before Starmer is meant to leave office. He grabs the trophy and mic from Kane on the pitch, claims the victory as an endorsement of his leadership. Burnham arrested.

I’m not happy to have to say this but @DavidLammy has been by far the very worst Justice Secretary that I’ve witnessed in coming up to the 17 years that I’ve been elected to Parliament. That’s saying something because we had the misfortune of witnessing the antics of failing Grayling. Dave has been worse by a country mile. If we’d just not filled the post and done nothing at all in the @MoJGovUK we’d have been much better off for it. Out of his depth. Ego the size of Britain but sadly incapable of anything like the work ethic or intellectual ability to do the job. I will be glad to see him return to the backbenches. He is also a very unpleasant individual. Gobbing off performatively from the security of an office staring down a camera on a remote meeting shouting “I CAME FROM A COUNCIL ESTATE IN TOTTENHAM”. I had my staffers witnessing the entire encounter. I even messaged him this very day asking what on earth he meant? I am still confused but it sounded to me like he was offering me out for a fight. Very odd behaviour from somebody holding the post of Lord Chancellor and Justice Secretary and the privilege of being the Deputy Prime Minister. 🤷🏼‍♂️ #NotlongnowDave

There are troubled days ahead for Cabinet ministers. Most haven’t a clue whether they are to be fired by leader-in-waiting Andy Burnham, or just moved elsewhere. Simon Heffer says David Lammy should be the first to go. This is why ⬇️ telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/07/1…

:: The actor Sam Neill has died at the age of 78. Here is a column he wrote for The Spectator in 2014 :: Last week, my dog left me. Walked out. Gone and left me for another man. I knew what had happened when I returned to the vineyard after a week or two abroad. As soon as I got out of my truck, there he was, running right past me without so much as a how d'you do. I couldn't help it – I'm afraid I yelled after him, "Listen, you little shit, I saved your life! I suppose you think I should be heartbroken. I'm not really. Truth is, I liked him well enough, but I never really loved him. That's hard to admit; you are meant to love your pets unreservedly. My last dog, a brindle Staffordshire bull terrier, I loved more than I can say. ✍️ Sam Neill Article | spectator.com/article/sam-ne…
