I feel like you're all missing a key part of that headline, which I grant you is doing a lot of work in a few short words.

In what way is she "the UK's strictest headmistress"? Who makes this determination? Is there some kind of scoring system in order to ensure that this particular accolade is awarded correctly? And perhaps most importantly, why does being the UK's strictest headmistress grant her any kind of authority over the relative tastiness of cheese, and why does her judgement on the matter merit a story in one of the UK's most widely read newspapers?

You'll get a marbling discussion between amateurs, best I can offer.

I believe Bleacher Report does an annual power ranking.

One for Badger. Kay Burley is an awful woman and a excrement muckraking jerk of a pretend journalist. Watching her get shown up for the clown she is is delightful.

That's an impressively quick process to go from "let's cross a warzone and the rest of the continent to make a better life for ourselves" to "if the tube isn't running I've no way of getting to work a couple of miles away". She's clearly born to be a Londoner, although to complete her transition she needs to stop sitting at the kitchen table crying and embrace "freak it, I'll go to the pub then".

"Noooo, don't advocate for higher wages or better working conditions, you're playing right into Putin's hands!"

The screaming hypocrisy of this Tory government bleating about playing into Putin's hands when they were the architects and he the financier of the single most damaging political event to happen to the UK in the last 50 years. But then it's to be expected that Fox UK would give them the platform for it.
