Vicky Pollard's Unelected Henderson Government


So, as a result of the Brexit vote we've ended up with a government we never elected. There's a delicious irony about that, but I doubt Brexiteers will see it that way..

I was sat next to Vicky Pollard in the Newcastle Airport departures lounge last night. The woman was on her mobile phone for a solid hour and a half at 110 decibels and never gave whoever she was talking to the chance to get a word in edge-ways. She just had to be on the Bristol flight, and I was right.

Spotted this beautiful, Art Deco classic on social media yesterday - a 1930 Henderson motorcycle. Never heard of Henderson before, but apparently they were one of the big three manufacturers, alongside Harley Davidson and Indian.


Despite a full  order book, they closed at the start of the Great Depression.
