A deliciously, unintentionally funny piece in today’s D Telegraph. People getting their knickers in a twist, still unable to compute that “They’re over here because we were / are over there.”

If you like data, here is something interesting for you: Bridget Phillipson interview on LK: 9m 40" LK number of interruptions/talking over: 31 Richard Tice interview on LK: 8m 23" LK number of interruptions/talking over: 9

If your constituency voted for Brexit, your constituency should pay 100% of the cost of Brexit. That town down the road that voted against it, but still lost 8% of its income anyway? We’re adding an extra 8% to your taxes to compensate them. Because apparently that's "democratic consent" now.

America’s favorite sport: saying the right thing and hoping no one checks the scoreboard.

After the White House complained about an unflattering photo of Karoline Leavitt, it was removed from AFP and Getty’s systems. This is the photo in question. Please do not repost it. 👇

Just got a letter addressed to "the Occupier", so I followed Alexei Sayle's advice and forwarded it to the Israeli embassy.

Too many people are too polite to say this. But holding mass rituals in public places is an act of domination. The druids are taking over.

STICK IT ON A FIVE POUND NOTE

Rand Paul: “I just wonder if someone who applauds violence against their political opponents is the right person to lead an agency that has struggled to accept limits to the proper use of force.” The entire confirmation hearing in one sentence.

Haven’t posted this for a few weeks. Aging absolutely tremendously

Christmas shopping season already? This is perfect for the tongue in cheek office Secret Santa nonsense . If you like the person whose name you’ve drawn just enclose the screenshot and declare “I could have purchased this for you ! “

Almost exactly ten years ago @henrymance.ft.com had lunch with Nigel Farage www.ft.com/content/864c.... It remains legend. Quite a lot has happened over the subsequent decade so we sent him back in. as.ft.com/r/edeac2c6-0...

Great guests 👍

I assume Chris Mason's absence from the TV screens is to do with him spending hours researching the significance of Nigel Farage's name in the Epstein Files.

I know you've heard that a federal judge ordered the release of 5 year old Liam Conejo Arias and his father, and that they're now home. But did you look at the judge's order? It's less than 2.5 pages and well worth a minute. "Jesus wept." Link to pdf: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

We hope the good people of #SanFrancisco will forgive us for adapting a song about their city in 1967 to address the shocking and tragic events in #Minnesota in recent weeks. This is dedicated to Renée Good and Alex Pretti, and in solidarity. Our version is called "Minnesota" ❤️ youtu.be/BRHxXHZmVAM

“I haven’t had a chance to see the reports.”

Lewis Goodhall's analysis of the Braverman defection is Test cricket compared to Chris Mason's Grassingtion and District over 50s Evening League. Like night and day.

Shove your fake praise up your MAGA base.

A video of Alex Pretti reading out the final salute of an unnamed veteran he cared for until the end of his life in the ICU, posted to Facebook by his son.

There’s only one way to leave an abusive relationship: utterly and finally. That doesn’t make it easy—on the contrary, it’s among the hardest things anyone can ever do. It’s just as hard for a nation or group of nations. It’s time for Europe to abandon America. Cut us off until we save ourselves.

The ravings of a madman. But I’m just worried, given this manic obsession with “fake” polls, whether he’s about to invade Polland. I’ll get my coat!

What the hell is this guy doing in our Parliament? It's really a disgrace.

A joke for the history buffs.
