  • WTF Burnham Special

    Hallo Readers, When WTF went to bed last night just before midnight, the pundits and psephologists on TV were telling her that the Makerfield byelection was ‘close’. When the alarm rudely awoke her at 6:45 this morning (she set it… Continue reading

  • WTF Out of the Woodwork Special

    Hallo Readers, It has all gone quiet on Prime Ministerial Putsch, the UK’s favourite TV game show – that is, at least until the new edition of Celebrity Traitors starts again. Andy Burnham is busy fighting the by-election which he… Continue reading
