Is may just too hell bent on Chequers that she can't/won't drop it?
Yes. She is fking insane, and as usual utterly in thrall to her advisers.
Agreed, for the life of me I cannot see any logical reason for the PM to be so hell bent on ‘Chequers’.

I think sid has managed to get himself banned in every volume so far it would be a shame for him to break such a winning streak

Why do you think she called it? (Granted the campaigning and end result made it look like she was trying to Labour the helm... But...).

Tory self indulgence.

Nothing to do with brexit.

Wasn't the main reason to reposition the next mandated election further out? Otherwise, by the normal timetable we'd be having an election in 2020, and I suppose that wasn't viewed as ideal - too close to the 'chaos'.

Of course, going backwards and increasing the level of chaos wasn't envisaged. Perhaps should have been.

You use screws?

Galvanised nail would do, cheaper too, or do you provide an exhumation service? wink

All coffins are constructed using galvanised nails and corrugated fasteners. Screws are only used to secure a lid or secure handles.

2 doctors required for cremation. Can’t exhume a cremated body wink

Me too. In an old packing case, delivered to the back door the the crem' on a Transit tipper.

That's what Mrs Digga's told me. Although she is open to more reasonably priced suggestions.

Yes. We don’t tend to cremate the doctors too.

Edit to add this may change post brexit.
