Dreadful set of audience numbers in the Rajars for Murdoch's stations . Times Radio has lost 5% of its audience. No surprise there. Talk Radio, hit by the curse of merging with TalkTV, has lost 7% while Virgin Radio UK continues its fall under Chris Evans losing 7%.

In the latest published ratings great news for GB News who have seen their radio audience ( it simulcasts their TV) jump by a massive 50% while the
dreadful BBC Radio 5 Live ( their 1-4pm show is unlistenable) has seen a collapse in audience from 6million to 4.75million. #DefundTheBBC

While Liz Truss has been attacked for costing our economy billions the arrival of Rishi Sunak has led to a rise in gilts worth more than £10billion to the exchequer. Didn't hear Starmer make that point at PMQs did you.

16 months ago the furniture business Made.com was floated for £775milllion. Today it's worthless. What management idiots were responsible? Which investment banks puffed these shares? What role did founder Hoberman play? Name names. This is a scandal.

I regret I won't be at the funeral of drill rappers Shifty and Giddy (Somalian heritage ) who were 'regrettably' shot dead in a drugs war in Ilford, Essex. At least there death was quick compared to the slow one they traded in. If you're at the funeral give my best to the family.

Regardless of colour Labour detests anybody who has made anything of themselves. Watch all the Lefties pile into Rishi Sunak because he's not as skint (or as dim) as they are. Who would pay for Universal Credit if it weren't for the top 1% paying 33% of income tax?

Nauseating and hectoring questioning by Mishal Husain of a junior Tory minister on BBC Radio 4 Today in which she demanded to know the PM's policies and was told repeatedly that it would come clear over the days ahead. Do hope Husein, a Muslim, isn't annoyed at a Hindu in No.10.

BBC News presenter Martine Croxall abandoned balance in a Paper Review of Boris Johnson's decision not to run, saying with a big smile; 'Am I allowed to be this gleeful? Well I am.' She knows her reaction will cause a major problem. I suggest suspension, you will want the sack.

By Boris making the very sensible decision tonight to bow out of the race and leave it to Rishi, it puts him in a great position to lead the Tories when they are wiped out in 2024.

Boris hasn't got the numbers. It looks like a coronation for Rishi Good.

Love to hear C4's justification for a transgender comedian on Friday Night Live to strip naked and play the piano with his (!) penis. With so many knobs running the channel I suspect they thought one more wouldn't make any difference. This embarrassment must be sold.

The reason those lefty tossers at C4 - their PD is ex Guardian - suspended Krishnan Guru-Murthy for calling a minister a c++t is they thought it would reinforce the view they were anti -Tory and that would hurry up a sale. Correct. We need the money and don't need the Socialism.
