Thought, Process

Darren Jones may be the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lanchester, but I am the Duke, and more than happy to be interviewed as such on GB News or anywhere else. It is all going on here in the Promised Land between the Tees and the Tyne. The Great North Run finisher medals have depicted Sunderland, and are now fetching five grand online; can you spot Bridget Phillipson's old council house with no roof?

And the position of Bishop of Durham has been vacant since 29 February 2024. The Diocese of Durham contains the Borough of Hartlepool. So we know what consolation prize Keir Starmer will be giving Peter Mandelson. If the process was followed in appointing Mandelson as Ambassador to Washington (not the Phillipson one), then the process is the problem. Although responsibility rests with Starmer. The media grandees are all on Twitter. You have known about Mandelson and Jeffrey Epstein for as long as I have. As have they.
