Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer has accused the PM and his government of making U turns at every turn. Well now it’s his turn as after hitting a cyclist while driving he has been accused of causing the accident while trying to do – well yes, a U turn in the middle of the road. I’m not sure if the eye witness actually saw his manoeuvre or just deduced it as he admitted to hearing the accident before going over to see if he could help. The labour leader claims he was going to park and not turning around. Either way it seems to have been a bit of very careless driving.
The local copper who killed his lover in a pub car park in West Parley has been cleared of murder but is guilty of manslaughter. He had a wife and at least two lovers and he claims he killed one accidentally during an argument. Except for the poor victim who was a nurse the women and their husbands all worked for Dorset police. I think they’ve been watching too many cop programmes on tv and think that that’s the way to behave. I wonder how many will be visiting him in prison.
We all know that the Trump has been going on rallies to convince his believers that they should vote for him. He likes to let them know how powerful and knowledgeable he is and his latest claim is that his son Barron had covid for just 15 minutes. That’s how weak the virus is, he told supporters, you can get it and fifteen minutes later it’s gone. Nothing to worry about there then. The American business magazine Forbes has claimed that Trump owes at least one billion dollars on the many properties he owns. If he did get voted in again the debts would become payable while he is in office. he’ll manage, somehow.
A UK student who flew from Salford which is a virus hotspot to Jersey to visit her parents has been fined nearly seven thousand pounds for breaking quarantine rules three times. She wasn’t at home when the covid tracing team tried to visit her, she went to a restaurant and posted pictures on social media, she went shopping and visited a friend. She could have avoided the fine by going to prison for six months but chose to pay up. I bet it was her parents who did the paying up.
Had to mention this one as Anna Elston might have missed it. In Sicily the town of Salemi is auctioning off its abandoned houses with a starting bid of just one Euro. Bidders have to agree to renovate the houses though. Before offering the properties improvements to the town have been completed making it, we suppose, an ideal place to move to or invest in. There are a few rules to follow but could be a way of making an Italian dream a reality. Buona Notte 😴💤😴
