Are we gearing up for another €110+ bit of ‘managerial genius’? www.independent.co.uk/sport/footba...

“…Euro-Atlantic interests…it’s wrong…” Starmer pulling out all the stops to hit Trump where it hurts. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/j...

Pffffffffffff…. I mean…. Talk about laying down with dogs…. But even that’s cutting him too much slack. If anyone was still clinging on to born-again-Catholic war criminal Blair as anything other than a psychotic wrong-un, then this has to be the moment they let go. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Why does the UK media still not understand that by promoting Farage as a racist, a Russian asset, and an SO lover, is just giving pro bono PR to his brand, & further marking him out as a sleeper agent for the Trump regime…? What’s next…? He beats his wife…? Oooo www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Ofsted gearing-up for a display of studied ignorance of what ‘Labour (or Tory) Friends of Israel’ means, that has ALREADY aged like milk. www.theguardian.com/education/20...

Is Trump working towards a pony-tail? I actually think this could work for him.

Guardian getting carried away with Grok… www.theguardian.com/artanddesign...

…with the caveat that we will NEVER be JD Vance.

…with the caveat that we will NEVER be JD Vance.

Just waiting on Stephen Miller to stipulate that the UK installs Tommy Robinson as Supreme Leader, or face abduction/invasion/forced ingestion of GM beef. You knows it ain’t as crazy as it ought to be…

NEW: Jack Smith will testify publicly before the House Judiciary Committee later this month. Smith has pressing them for this — in a public forum.

Who could be discouraged at this point, as James Dean Bradfield meets Phil Mitchell, to determine the future military security of Europe…?

Utd taking the spirit of giving to heart this Christmas, by actually BEING the gift that keeps on giving. Maybe they realise only God can help them. Perhaps he’ll let them put his name on a shirt and sell it in China. [angel chorus sounds] www.theguardian.com/football/202...

The genius of Farage is to have targeted the precise demographic that won’t care that he scams them both politically and financially. It’s like the Trump base who just don’t care that he’s Putin’s POTUS of choice. Cult. Cult. Cult. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Scott Beasant. Why not entrust the world’s largest economy to a man who can neither comb his own hair, nor mobilise his own face…?

Dismal. Ailing PM whose only hard credentials are as a Human Rights lawyer, bends even further to the right. Because that’s been playing out so well for him… If you can’t make the argument for what you know is right, why are you in this position? Execrable filth. www.theguardian.com/law/2025/dec...

For shame… www.theguardian.com/law/2025/dec...

Imagining this kind of thing runs the risk of taking England football back to the fist-pumping lion-heart mythology that had us fielding Adams/Terry, while other nations understood technical merits counted. www.theguardian.com/football/202...

Lol. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

More ‘accusations’ of what people are knowingly doing. It’s just not the right word. Albanian PM accuses Mahmood of 'ethnic stereotyping' www.bbc.com/news/article...

This is nuts. This is Farage’s appeal. He is a racist. Am I missing something…? www.theguardian.com/politics/ng-...

Farage was never going to let Shabana Mahmood steal his chunder… www.theguardian.com/politics/ng-...

Thought the DM had found Jesus. Silly me…

It’s almost as if he deliberately said that stupid shit to appeal to people who think it already. (This is the most tragic focus-grouped-people-hated-me-even-more-when-I-was-just-a-property-crime-facilitator idiocy, that there is.) I have to meet Jenrick simps. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

In the Twat-topia of 2025, this is what a leadership bid looks like… www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Labour’s answer to Priti Patel Patelling uglyly. Who’s going to be the Braverman-a-like…? www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Jeremy Doku got baptised the other day, because when that happens, ‘your old nature, your old sinful nature, dies and you start living with God.’ [sighs] [watches space]

The NYT ahead of the curve, here…

Another rent-a-gob. But to whom is Nick Clegg plausible…? www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

Just another day in countries not governed for the people who live in them…

It’s official. We’re now as dumb as the Yanks. www.theguardian.com/politics/ng-...

Norrie giving me hope following my osteoarthritic elbow diagnosis. www.theguardian.com/sport/2025/a...

Another ‘deary me…’ moment at hand, if you please, Chaz…. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Don’s appreciation of Vlad knew no bounds…

We are all migrants, now… www.lbc.co.uk/news/uk/robe...

Lammy in the news this week, breathing a sigh, that he’s confident we’re ‘not complicit.’ We are. Starmer talking loudly about airdrops to a country he won’t say exists… The shame is off the scale. If I can feel it, then I expect those who carry the blame for this to do the same.

What is it with the BBC & their woefull lack of judgement when hiring presenters? Who would have thought that both Wallace & Torode were sleazy old gits? www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio... They’ll be telling us John Inverdale’s a wrong-un, next… & what exactly does Andrew Castle have on the BBC…?

Does the BBC not appreciate that there is literally zero appetite for the involvement of Andrew Castle in anything?

Self-defence really is a chimera, isn’t it…? www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j...

“This would never have happened if I’d been President…” www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cv...

BadEnoch gets a pass, as she’s just Leader of The Opp., but are we missing the maybe that she’s actually continuing the Cameron>May>Johnson>Truss>Sunak tail-spin…? Few would have thought she had it in her. (And, yes, she could well soon be holding Jenrick’s beer…) www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

How is it with me that, while I’m coming to really hate this Labour government, I can still understand that Reform would be a whole lot worse…? www.theguardian.com/society/ng-i...

Bleak. Why can Labour not learn? Chasing after the most disgusting votes in the country, in the week those self same votes demonstrated they’re going to vote Reform whatever, isn’t just gross, it’s idiotic in the language of pure electoral numbers. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...
