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.

"Hurrah for the Blsckshirts" said it in fewer words.

Which side are the three US special ops spy planes supporting ? 🤷‍♂️

“No room at the Inn” is a biblical reference about immigrants (Jesus’ parents) being turned away. Not the government. Way to go, Hilton! The 3rd Amendment protects private entities from having to house the government.

Paging Lord Agnew, former Schools Minister. Bursars in these schools need one of those advisers you used to send into state schools to patronise Business Managers about making savings, offering a bottle of bubbly if they couldn’t find any.

Marlborough College, the alma mater of the Princess of Wales, has been forced to turn off the heating during the holidays to save money. Pray for them. Please, God, pray for them.

Suburbia implementing Trump foreign policy.

He isn't "losing" this money. This is called "paying tax like a responsible citizen and not hiding your money offshore" and we need to start recognising and applauding it.

So good and so clever!

Oh

MI6 Chief gives speech. Speech may contain words that are interesting. But because MI6 Chief is a woman @telegraph.co.uk prints an article about her appearance, with no mention of the speech’s content.
