So much winning!

BREAKING: ‘There are reports the UK has told the US they cannot use RAF bases for strikes on Iran. Is that true?' The Foreign Secretary tells ITV News that she wants the US to negotiate with Iran, amidst reports the US are preparing to strike the country

It's true. I once had a Labrador that tried to commit mail fraud.

A stunning day but I think the UK can be a bit proud of itself tonight - we’ve shown that nobody is above the law (USA look and learn though it may be too late - your justice system is in the hands of your mad King)

"Pizza Express, Woking, please!"

The arrest is for the courts. Accountability is not. If it is to survive this crisis, the Royal Family must finally answer questions about how it conducts itself. My latest: The Humbling of the House of Windsor open.substack.com/pub/goodalla...

BREAKING: The UK is blocking Trump from using its airbases to attack Iran. Trump is irate. The UK is having a good news day.

The UK is blocking Trump from using airbases in the UK to strike Iran AND also arrested Andrew (on his birthday!) for his connections to Epstein and his sexual abuse allegations. Trump is livid. Hey, US, why don’t you take some fricken notes!!

Settled down to watch the news when I realised what I was eating

"Just me."

look at my country man, we’re getting out-No Kings’d by the fuckin’ british

UK: Prince Andrew arrested. South Korea: Former President Yoon sentenced for life. Brazil: Former President Bolsonaro serving a 27-year sentence. USA: President Trump demands $10 billion payout from taxpayers.

Gordon Brown sends new Epstein dossier to police

It's never good when the precedent is King Charles I.

Andrew arrested. Emergency podcasts being recorded, bringing gaiety to the nation.

Wellness woo grifters – like Chopra & Attia – often market themselves as wise & above corruption. Nope. Price of Admission to Epstein’s World: Silence www.nytimes.com/2026/02/17/w... "Deepak Chopra complained of a 'crazy' day, #Epstein replied, 'I’m in Florida, but would like to send two girls.'"

I regularly see people wondering how it's possible that there are so many musicians and writers and film makers and artists from a tiny nation like Iceland. And the answer is really simple: State funding for art education and artists. I literally get a salary from the government to write books.

A great example of why this regime doesn’t want us to read books. I know for a fact they’d ban and attack me for the novel I’m writing. Which gives me more impetus do write faster. 😈😈😈

Funny that Farage goes on and on about foreign rapists while being BFFs with the very nonce adjacent president of a foreign country.

Perhaps a better way of saying this would be to say that in just his first year in office Donald Trump ordered the illegal detention of well over 4,000 human beings—and that that number is undoubtedly wildly low because it only considers those people who filed lawsuits to try to regain their freedom

You’ve got to hand it to Trump, he has a gift for gathering all the worst people in the world in his cabinet. It’s going to be a new Marvel movie, A***holes Assemble!

Shame Vesta Williams didn't marry Tim Curry. #TOTP

I've added EIGHT new signed books onto my website. Yes, that's right. I'll try and do a post about each of them, but in the meantime, here's a link to my "Signed Books" page on my website & a pic of the eight books. www.biggreenbookshop.com/signed-copie...

This is wild. Russian government using AI to generate fake YouTube videos where well known Ukrainian supporters & influencers make pro-Putin content. Expect much more of this. Especially in the run up to the midterms- youtu.be/88tYt6FOMkQ?...

He's a keeper.

She is an empty suit, of course. And an absolute nasty piece of cornbread. She is also, to my somewhat trained ear, absolutely, positively terrified here. She is either intimidated by the process or deeply anxious about her relationship with her boss. Or both. But she is terrified.

I say it every time, but Randy Rainbow is pure genius.

That same acid-eating staffer who sent out the racist meme about the Obamas is at it again. Now he's saying China's going to end hockey in Canada. What a fucking whack job. They really need to fire that guy.

VAN HOLLEN: All of your children? LUTNICK: Yes, I took a headcount. Mr. Epstein asked to buy one of them, but I consider them to be a set, so I politely declined. I offered a nanny instead, but that was declined as she was in her thirties. VAN HOLLEN: Very well then. Continue....
