Australian woman found guilty of mushroom murders
The defence's main reasoning was that she had absolutely no motive at all. She didn't get ill but said that was because she says she made herself vomit due to being bulimic. They were dried mushrooms she had in a jar and she couldn't remember if she bought them or wild picked them.

Australian woman found guilty of mushroom murders
From BBC News Erin Patterson is found guilty of murdering three of her relatives, and attempting to murder another, at a lunch in 2023 The 50-year-old cooked and served six individual beef Wellingtons at her home in Leongatha, regional Victoria - they were later found to contain death cap mushrooms Patterson's in-laws Don and Gail Patterson, and Gail's sister Heather Wilkinson, died within days - this graphic shows who else attended the meal The prosecution argued Patterson knowingly put the toxic mushrooms in the home-cooked lunch, lied to police and disposed of evidence - they also acknowledged she had no particular motive Patterson's defence was that she accidentally included the poisonous fungi and lied because she panicked -

Rachel Reeves - will she survive?
It's not the crying but her incompetence at being Chancellor.

Rachel Reeves - will she survive?
Yes, sorry, they did but the policy was watered down to please the rebels.

Rachel Reeves - will she survive?
For the first time, Starmer refused to back her today but a press release from No.10 did. Will she jump before being pushed? She hasn't a lot of room for manoevere to get the 20bn now, without breaking the election pledger of not raising taxes.

Rachel Reeves - will she survive?
After she cried today during PMQ's, can she survive as Chancellor, the job she's held for a year? They say it was for personal reasons but the press aren't buying it. She seems to be being blamed for the defeat last night and now has 20 billion to find without raising taxes. Markets have fallen today. Will she survive as Chancellor?

Farage favourite to be next PM either with Reform or as Tory leader.

The Official Labour Calmer Steering Thread (mk III)
Glad I come off ESA In Jan when I reach 66 and switch to the old age pension. No more stupid assessments. Haven't had one since late 2019 because of Covid. Watch them send for me in the next 6 months.🙄

Can Reform win the next election?
Will Nigel Farage be PM in 2029? After a recent poll put them level with Labour the popular press and some electoral experts seem to think he can do it and win around 400 seats. Interesting Ch4. programme last night. I can't see it myself and think the bubble will burst before then. Labour support will rise again and they'll be re-elected but with a much reduced majority.
