I was at Labour conference and scored Starmer, Reeves and Lammy speeches - one gets 0/10
1. Keir Starmer
1. Keir Starmer
Let's begin with the biggy. In terms of length at least.
The Prime Minister's warbling monologue came in at just under an hour and was packed with, well, very little policy.
Rating: 3 out of 10.
2. Rachel Reeves
It would be fair to say the robotic Chancellor is no great orator.
But she spoiled what was one of her warmest outings in front of an autocue by pretty much admitting that she's going to hike taxes at the Budget in eight weeks time.
Rating: 1 out of 10
3. David Lammy
In a flurry of arm-waving and gestures he accused the Reform UK leader of "poundshop patriotism" and branded the party's plans to deport immigrants as "racist".
Worse was to come for Lammy when he accused Farage of flirting with the Hitler Youth - later issuing a grovelling backtrack - during a toe curling TV interview.

So, no surprise there.
Just feel sorry for the poor "delegates " , " rank and vile ", and the msm reporters who can't wait to get back to the bar and hotel where they can extend the envelope of their expenses allowance while tabulating those Very Important Pricks that they have nodded to. Expenses, dear boy, expenses.
Ahh David Lammy! His non existent knowledge of history has tripped him up again.
And where's Sam Vega?
That must be the Lammy who thought Marie Antoinette was a Nobel winner. Because there can't be two Lammys as stupid as that, can there?
Doonhamer - expenses and gossip are probably the only things they go for.
Tammly - I'm not sure where Sam Vega has gone, but a couple of clues suggest he may have passed away quite suddenly in late June. I'd do a blog post about it, but the trouble is I don't know for sure, it may be something else. I'd very much like to know because he left loads of thoughtful and interesting comments here for years. It's a problem with these online relationships.
dearieme - maybe he thought Marie Antoinette discovered the element cakeium.
