Come on Budapest!

If I didn’t see this myself on Truth Social I’d assume it was some phishing site

Hate Crosscountry trains with their stupid, comedy (actually not funny), kid-size flip-down tables! Currently no one sat next to me so this is the only way I can work.

I've lost count of the number of times I've posted this brilliant, hilarious love letter to one of the great unsung bands of all time. The perfect pastiche/homage. www.youtube.com/watch?v=7vVJ...

You wouldn’t know these great legal scholars. They go to another school.* *not a law school

Brilliant as always. Stick around for the (portmanteau alert) urinanity at the end.

Quick thread on the BBC and the political and societal significance of recent developments: One of the main reasons the UK has historically been so much less polarised than the US, is that Britain has a shared source of information, consumed and trusted by most people regardless of their politics.

If you don’t like the BBC, I suggest that you go to America and watch their TV for a day. It gives you a migraine. The BBC also keeps the standards of the other outlets relatively high. If you think we watch shit now, imagine it with no BBC. And they actually care about drama, children’s, factual.

I DEMAND Panorama IMMEDIATELY produces a documentary showing Kamala Harris not instigating a violent riot, not sexually assaulting anyone, or getting fined for denying it, or being found guilty of business fraud, or f*cking a porn star AND accepting the result of an election. You know. For balance.

‘At one point during cross examination, the prosecutor Peter Wright KC called Barton’s explanations “nonsense”, to which the former player responded by asking: “Are you calling me a nonce?” Wright in turn responded: “No, nonsense.”’

He should take it up with his MP

Looking forward to some 'Moments of Fright'. #insidenumber9

Racist Reform MP complaining about insufficient white faces in advertising. Also ... Thick as shit Reform MP not considering ad agencies ruthlessly study what will and won't sell.

Awwww come on @nytimes.com, what is this anti-pirate bias.

MSNBC Live coverage: @jacobsoboroff.bsky.social interviewing a pink unicorn on live television is giving me life. #NoKings

Ok @timminchin.bsky.social, this looks like niche clickbait. Update: I clicked. Very funny.

Binged the whole of The Franchise on a flight back from Toronto. Bloody funny stuff produced by @aiannucci.bsky.social and Sam Mendes. Criminally overlooked for a second series.

This is another damning picture of Kennedy refusing to meet with senior scientists and get advice about infections or vaccines whilst he spreads disinformation #healthpolicy

I did the English voice-over for this. Grim but important stuff.

The construction of the second part of the German Nazi Auschwitz camp began in October 1941. The planned number of prisoners of Auschwitz II-Birkenau was 200,000. It was never achieved. Watch our new "Video history" film to learn about the expansion of Birkenau: https://youtu.be/e-gQDCLlzHA

This seems fine.

Cruz thinks he's hatched a brilliant plan after watching Inception.

After Ilhan Omar & I discussed Charlie Kirk’s assassination, that both of us condemned, conservatives screenshotted an unrelated part of the convo where we were momentarily smiling & ridiculously claimed we were ‘celebrating’ his death. It’s an easy enough, & very cynical, trick to play. 🤷🏽‍♂️

A handy guide

Interesting presentation of the fatal road accident stats showing both vehicle types involved.

Um. Not a feud.

Hi James, in my time with taxi drivers I've had 1 tell me that he flies out to America once a year to organise Robin Williams's security and another who tells me that he is Eddie Grant's tour manager. I'm not sure they're always telling the truth. Tom in Winchester. @mrjamesob.bsky.social

@mrjamesob.bsky.social Hi James, my brother did a philosophy degree and is now (be kind) Boris Johnson's lawyer.

Trump stopping the wrong war. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/14/m...

Thanks @matthew-wright.bsky.social for talking Cardiacs this morning. Wonderful.

Seems Boris already knows the motivation of Kirk's killer but is nobley careful to remain evenhanded in his assessment.🙄

NOTHING will prepare you for this 45-second story arc. From "I'm just doing this because I love the flag, it's totally grassroots, and I'm not part of anything political"... to who actually gave him the flags the night before. Anyone who believes it is an innocent movement needs to see this.

Slightly diminish a book Junior Doctor Zhivago

“Farage claimed last year to have “bought a house” in his constituency but the property is actually owned in the name of his partner, meaning he legally avoided higher-rate stamp duty on the purchase of an additional home – given he already owns other properties” www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

The white-wing press doing its thing.

Great gig at Victorious Festival with Ska Dogs. What a crowd!

Pleasant stroll to catch my flight home from Budapest.

Finally! An accurate Water-gate. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Enhanced my rain-harvesting to a triple-butt system and yes, I have a pump in my butt** **no sniggering at the back please, this is serious stuff

Millionaires Shortbread: a criminally under-reported victim of inflation.

Horrible migrants are killing Europe, says horrible migrant arriving in Europe

By a fellow human being working incredibly hard to support themselves and secure a better life?

Excellent work from @mehdirhasan.bsky.social debating American conservatives (though it turns out some are happy to call themselves fascists). Eye-opening with Hassan precise and on point throughout. youtu.be/2S-WJN3L5eo?...

@frankturner.bsky.social playing his home town (well, village) gig. He brought his Mum on for a harmonica solo. She did well.

Britain hasn’t suddenly become more racist, but racists have become more assertive in their bigotry. My ‪@theobserveruk.bsky.social‬ column: observer.co.uk/news/opinion...

This current heatwave must have given OnlyFans a spike in traffic for very innocent reasons.

This party has seats in Parliament. What a time to be alive.

"Make a Reich turn into Poland"

Too much winning. Thanks Brexit.
