The Grenfell Tower saga enters several more stages of lunacy as what started as a simple humanitarian tragedy was first stolen by the Corbynites as a political issue, who then elevated it to virtual accusations of ‘rich people murdering the poor’ and now its being hijacked from the Lefties by the racists. Not, like ‘racists’ who hate black people, but the opposite. Those who see racism everywhere.

The judge appointed to the inquiry, Sir Whassisname-Double-Barrel, is just a bit too white to really be put in charge of such a case where so many of the victims weren’t. He’s too ‘establishment’ to be ‘impartial’. Are we in the fucking Raj? In 1863? This is about a building in London in 2017. Its about a fridge catching fire. Its about suicidal cladding. Its about many things, but skin colour ain’t one of them. Its about legality and responsibility and decisions made decades ago and who might be accountable for them.

They didn’t get a Liverpool fan to run (any of the many) Hillsboro’ inquiry; they didn’t get a Roman Catholic priest to run the paedophile inquiries, why do you need ‘diversity’ for the Grenfell Tower one? Should they appoint an Eritrean refugee who doesn’t speak English to head the thing up? Yes, because he’d be ‘representative’ and presumably impartial. If he knew what either word meant.

Bizarrely, whilst we’re all agonising over these quite ridiculous and politicised irrelevancies, its interesting that the ‘cladding-of-death’ is still approved for use by the British Board of Agrement. Don’t even know what that name means but they’re the ones who say what can and can’t be used. And the BAA is indirectly approved by the government. And run by an ex-Labour mp. Corbyn will obviously accuse her of being a rampant Blairite.

No-one ever slagged off a council for saving money.

But the bottom line is… they’ve found the perfect bottom for women. They can all use it, or buy it from Primark. Ok, maybe not. But scientists (with waaaaay too much time on their hands) have decided that the ‘perfect bottom’ is… 0.70. I’d thought that all along, obviously, cos I’m a fucking genius, but nice to see it quantified so clearly. That’s the waist to hip ratio. If your waist is 25 inches (in yer fuckin’ dreams) and your hips 35, that gives you 0.71. So next time someone asks if their ‘bum looks big in this’, just give them a calculator and say ‘you do the maffs’.

Happy Tuesday
