If the Guardian says ‘this is a blog’ and the Times says ‘this is a blog’ and even the Daily Mail says ‘this is a BLOG!!!!!’, then it probably is a blog. Unless you’re a supporter of Jeremy Corbyn, in which case; firstly, you need psychological help, and secondly, the press are involved in a campaign to conspire unfairly against things that aren’t blogs.

That is the gist of their main argument that Jeremy is not popular because of the media. Because they’re all calling him a total tosser. All of them. All the time. Which may mean, errr…, that he is in fact a tosser and the press are united in making a relatively simply observation, or it may mean that the media is involved in some campaign akin to Trump’s ‘fake news’ bollocks. If they’re not printing what you want to hear then discredit the speaker.

So let me just clarify this: Jeremy Corbyn is an awful and vile man with obsolete ideas based on failed political models. He, and his team, live on pathetic soundbytes like ‘making Britain great for EVERYONE; NOT JUST THE FEW’, whilst lacking any substance behind them. We’re gonna make it fair, but we’re not telling you how we’re gonna do it, and for God’s sake don’t ask me to do the sums. Especially Diane Abbott.

So Comrade Jeremy, and the exceedingly smooth, slimy and dangerous Comrade McDonnell, are just ‘a little disappointed’ with the local election results on Thursday. In which they, pretty much, lost everything they ever had and gained nothing new. Other than installing Andy Burnham as Mayor of All of Manchester (he’s welcome to it; take Liverpool too, for all I care). The man whose visions and policies change daily, depending on who he’s talking to, should do fine up there. 200 miles from me. Shame he didn’t stand in Newcastle. But the losses were just because ‘we weren’t getting our message across to enough people… because the media are unfair…’

And all this because I just can’t talk about football. Simply can’t. Too painful. Too distressing. Too horrible. Not that I retained any hope of winning the league, which I didn’t. But I just wanted to end the season on a big high. So this weekend I’m more interested in the bottom of the table. Sunderland have gone, Middlesboro’ (sorry Ali) have no hope so its all about Hull, who lost yesterday, ironically to Sunderland, and Swansea, who won yesterday.

And its about Lila, always Little Lila.

Happy Sunday
