Neck and Neck

There's an article in the Guardian about how one should wear a scarf, written tongue in cheek (I hope) and I can empathise with what they are saying.  You can't just sling it on and hope it looks right, it's one of the few items of clothing I wear that has to go on just right.  Practical, and stylish  - and that's very difficult I can tell you.

The UK political scene keeps getting surprised by Jeremy Corbyn.  Instead of persuading his cabinet to fall in line with one particular view on the Syrian bombing options, he has simply written to all his MPs telling them he will not support it.  This is in marked contrast to his predecessors from all parties, who manage to get the cabinet to toe the 'party line' whether they like it or not.  It will be interesting how this turns out i.e. will it be seen as a successful way to run the party, or will he end up being the 'weak leader' that the papers are desperate for.
