I wonder whether some of you might like to add a few words to this picture of some councillors closely examining a pothole in a road. I think it's definitely asking for it!

how about 'do we have a quorum?'

The fat bastard on the far left probably caused it when crossing the road whilst out walking.
I told you not to step on to the road, Bob. Now look what you've done.

Apart from the bloke with the magic spray can highlighting the obvious that's about the only inspection they get. I see from a bigger vesion of that picture that one of those blokes is Sunak. I guess we'll soon have a 5 point pothole plan along with all the other 5 point plans. They all seem to be...
1. See if there is any way to blame an earlier labour government.
2. Check that potential Conservative voters are pissed off with the problem.
3. Point out that Labour have not announced a policy on the issue.
4. Blame international law.
5. Announce a 5 point plan saying the problem will be fixed by the time of the next election.

Well spotted, were the tight trousers the give-away? :grin:

You're right!
So who's the big fat bloke?
I reckon he provides the necessary ballast when they drive away. Sunak on his own would find his car floating off.
Biggest clue was in a different version of the picture...

I wanted a bigger version to check what they were looking at. In these parts potholes that small are classed as a good bit of road...
