I've been to a few games at Dulwich Hamlet when it coincided with the lovely NHS people at King's College Hospital doing their best to squeeze a few more years out of me.
Great club.

The most curious thing..
I don't think you can blame her for what her parents may or may not have done.
It would be very funny though if she ever attains power and changes the nationality rules, then finds herself being kicked out under the same rules she has changed.

Good grief. What a shitshow that party is.

Not so. Bungalow Bill Wiggins was not so named because he had nothing up top. According to Joan Collins, it was because he was all down below.

Not so. I recall it was a combination of both.

But with pitiful, entitled overconfidence. & lack of self awareness.
She actually thinks she's winning
I wonder when the penny will drop that competing with Reform rather than being something different for moderate voters is the way to get elected?
Fortunately for Labour supporters, Badenoch is very arrogant, has poor judgement and does not listen. Traits seen in many Tory leaders over the last 14 years. Unfortunately for Labour supporters, she surely won’t be leading the Tories in the next election.

I actually heard PMQs for the first time in quite a while yesterday. To send her out with those questions after a week to prepare, is it her team who are completely incompetent or her who thinks she knows better than them 
The official opposition to the Government can't let this go on, they really need to do something soon. Who's next in line ?

Worth following John Crace's sketches. He reckons she just reads the Mail / Telegraph in the morning and wings it from there.I actually heard PMQs for the first time in quite a while yesterday.

The Tory leader seems to be getting worse by the week – who knew thinking up a few coherent questions was so hard?

PMQs should be a testing time for prime ministers. Even good parliamentary performers like Thatcher and Blair said they were trials. I'm not sure what Thatcher could complain about, she was excellent. Mind you, she was against Foot and Kinnock, it may have been a different story if she'd faced John Smith: Major wasn't so lucky. Good opposition leaders like Smith, Blair and Cameron can make life very uncomfortable for a PM.
Yet, with a Labour government struggling to make an impact, Badenoch can make no headway. She's the worst opposition leader (or perhaps second worst after IDS) that I've seen in the 50+ years I've been following politics. Week after week, she has an open goal and Ulloa-like, scoops it over the bar. I can't see the MPs putting up with it for much longer.

She did the same thing last week on a Chagos Islands question. Starmer pointed out in response she hadn't been briefed on the subject, there were people on the benches behind her who do actually know what's going on and that she has never taken up his offer to meet him to discuss this matter of national security as the leader of the opposition is supposed to do with a Prime Minister. She just sat there looking confused and angry.I actually heard PMQs for the first time in quite a while yesterday.

It is a whole party issue, rather than just a Badenoch one. Though she does share Liz Truss's unshakeable confidence in her own rightness even when presented with undeniable evidence to the contrary, she is working with a parliamentary party that was gutted of half its talent and experience by Boris Johnson's loyalty purges and by most of the rest by the election shellacking. Far too many of the remainder, including Badenoch herself, are more concerned with wrecking the game than working out tactics that might see them improve. Starmer is playing chess with a pigeon, that has been prepped by a team of pigeons.

I'm sure that is right. I staggered to see how much air time my ex MP Mims Davies is getting - its a sign of how hollowed out the Tories were at the last election and the poor quality of many of their remaining MPs.
