According to my mushroom guidebook the consumption of fly agaric mushrooms can give a sensation of flying. Reindeer like eating them so much that the Sammi use fly agaric to help round them up!

Indeed. I've been to see the real Santa in Lapland with the kiddies.

This.
But also, it's incoherent, bellicose nonsense, plucked out of thin air to sound red-blooded and anti "woke". Unfortunately we have a media culture in which it's considered impolite for journalists to push back against blatant and unmitigated horseshit, so they lap this stuff up. What does she do when the steak is brought to her if she doesn't stop to eat it from a plate? Does she just chew away at it from her hands during briefings or cabinet meetings or when working at a laptop, dripping and smearing beefy juices all over the ivory damask, Rishi's bouclé armchairs, or SamCam's yellow velvet sofa? Or does a servant have to cut it up in little pieces and pop it into her mouth in between lies?
It's boringly technocratic that Starmer has a repertoire of two sandwiches for lunch, and it's much more conducive to workaholism and al desco eating than Badenoch's made-up steak, but even an association with the man well on the way to becoming the most despised prime minister in living memory isn't enough to kill the sandwich, or the dread Meal Deal, as a British lunch convention. If I were her, I wouldn't pick a war on sandwiches as the hill to die on.

You say that but is it *really* two sandwiches, or one cut in half? White bread or granary? Is it always a sliced, or does he like a cheeky baguette.... I think we should be told...
I think he has a loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong way to go to even get on the podium... Being "a bit dull" isn't close to crashing the economy for 30 billion or killing off hundreds of thousands of voters or starting a war in the middle east over invisible weapons.
Here we are united.

I don't consider this his biggest crime, by quite a long chalk.

Ah - are you in the "he's not done as much as we hoped?" camp?

I think it's more, "he's done exactly what we thought he'd do".

I’ve worked with people like that. The kind that save all their emails up so they can send them at 8pm, pretending they’re working harder/longer than anyone else. Wankėrs.

Welcome yourself into the new modern crisis
It shows poor time management if anything.
Similar thing with celebrating staff going 'above and beyond'. That's a management failure.

Admittedly I am enjoying this (non)story a bit too much, but I wanna see Badenoch attempt to cook a steak. Absolutely nailed-on that it's a disaster. That Sargon of Akkad wanker is currently getting cooked by the menswear guy over the uncanny inability of red-meat fascists to deliver on the promise of their simple beefy dinners.
