Agreed on the latter - I was paralytic Saturday afternoon/evening.

Whatever happened to Hastings?Used to be a nice place late '60s,early '70s.Was it after that,the London boroughs started their ethnic cleansing of addicts and unemployables to south coast towns?

You sound just like Amber Rudd.
Hastings has changed a lot over the last 20 years from that stereotypical view.

The Highlands Inn in St. Leonards? It's still there if so.
The De La Warr in Bexhill is. That has had a major renovation this century now. Very nice now.

Looks like the Tories will be losing an MP by the end of the day with Anne Marie Morris caught using the 'N' word

Speaking of getting caught I see Corbyn's Chief Commissar has been pictured getting up close and personal with a mystery blonde. I doubt Mrs Milne is best pleased.
I'd be surprised if she resigns... a feeble apology, 'some of my best friends are black'... you know the sort of thing, then keep her head down over the summer hols.
I think they'll sacrifice her. PR disaster if they don't, and the huge majority means they can afford to risk it.
If the seat was marginal, they'd definitely let her ride it out, obviously.

Of course what she said was wrong, but this is from the BBC article.
Suggesting that just 7% of financial services would be affected by Brexit, she reportedly said: "Now I am sure there will be many people who will challenge that but my response and my request is look at the detail - it isn't all doom and gloom."
She went on: "Now we get to the real ****** in the woodpile, which is in two years what happens if there is no deal."
'Zero tolerance'
The phrase originated in the American Deep South in the mid-19th Century and is thought to have referred to slaves having to conceal themselves as they sought to flee north and secure their freedom.
It was subsequently used in the 20th Century - including by a number of leading novelists - as a metaphor to describe a hidden fact or problem.
So, get it into context. She was using a metaphor - albeit a very un PC one to use. Of course she needs to be punished/reprimanded though.
