Anyone watch Mr Bates vs The Post Office - or interested in Marshal Petain's "betrayal"of France in 1940?

 Is Paula Vennells the new Nicola Sturgeon? And how does Alister Jack stack up against Marshal Petain?


For a clear statement of the comparison between Vennells and Sturgeon in point of public spiritedness, charity, compassion and long-term intelligence, I recommend this thoughtful analysis, as it also places Marshal Petain’s 1945 trial for treason to France in the context of the Tory failure to control the Scottish pirate parliament today: https://thinkscotland.org/2024/01/paula-vennells-and-the-snp-beware-the-sordid-parallels/
