The Economist has a history of excellent covers, but they have outdone themselves this week😁

Two sets of ‘orrible arseholes both bragging about their great victory over the other. It’s like there are no adults in the room.

👏👏👏

USA is in urgent need of regime change. Doesn’t really matter how it happens, just needs to happen soon.

Latest thoughts of President DONALD J. TRUMP. He’s quite obviously deranged: “Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran. There will be nothing like it!!! Open the Fuckin’ Strait, you crazy bastards, or you’ll be living in Hell - JUST WATCH! Praise be to Allah.”

Chocolate egg for breakfast: fried or scrambled?

For the Believers among you, an Easter message…

Don’t let the door hit you on the arse on your way out Donald.

A MILLION TIMES THIS 👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇

Oh for a British Prime Minister with the balls to publicly tell Trump to get fucked. Guaranteed to win the next UK general election.

NEW: Trump: “Go get your own oil!” Brace for the ultimate TACO, the UBERTACO, the CLUSTERTACO. Trump has lost an illegal war he started and is now bored. He’s going to walk away, leave the U.S. globally isolated and just let the Middle East burn. Generational humiliation for the U.S. incoming.

Seriously, when the current President of the USA says negotiations with Iran are taking place & the Iranian Foreign Ministry says there are no negotiations: who are you going to believe?

Probably not very smart to call other people cowards when you’re famous for having dodged your own military draft.

Fantastic news in the UK today - the government has apparently ditched its plan to force creatives to 'opt out' if they don't want AI companies training on their life's work. www.thetimes.com/uk/technolog... 🧵 1/4

This Ireland vs Scotland match is on fire.

This is a scene worthy of a Paul Verhoeven movie.

Sheer genius! Say what you like about the French, they know how to do Art.

The Archers Theme in the style of Rachmaninoff by BBC Moscow correspondent Steve Rosenberg is a LOL work of genius. No arguments.

I’m shocked - shocked! - to learn that the Daily Telegraph has been publishing stories it describes as news which are entirely fictional, featuring non existent families illustrated by generic stock photos from picture agencies.

I’d watch the hell out of this. In fact I don’t think we have a choice. Sheer genius😁

Another photojournalist gone too soon. RIP Paul Conroy.

the real story isn’t whether 2 large corps should be allowed to merge. It’s what their convergence reveals about collapsing economics of visual evidence & whether anyone is building the infrastructure that makes real images valuable ... kaptur.co/the-authenti...

Taxi for Starmer.

So, the Speaker of the House of Commons grassed Mandelson - aka The Prince of Darkness - to the Metropolitan Police, who in turn immediately grassed the Speaker of the House of Commons to Mandelson’s lawyers. Risky business bring a police snout in England 😁

I sm shocked - shocked! - to learn that the Speaker of the House of Commons is a grass.

You’ve really made it as a news photographer when one of your smudges gets hung in the Louvre.

Been shopping. Bought some new dinnerware.

Worst. Birthday. Ever.

According to the Crown Prosecution Service, misconduct in public office carries a maximum sentence of life imprisonment. If that doesn’t make him sweat nothing will. #Mountbatten-Windsor

People in my archive seem to be passing away daily. Yesterday Robert Duvall, today Jesse Jackson. RIP.

Has to be a Duvall movie this evening. The hard bit of course is choosing which one. What a body of work.

RIP Robert Duvall, one of the absolute all-time greats. I had the great good fortune to work with him as stills photographer on the movie Stalin. Here we are in Stalin’s dacha outside Moscow.

It is so embarrassing that it has taken nearly a decade for a British minister to say this, a statement of the absolute bloody obvious

Joint Reform UK/Tory govt by Christmas then.

it will really be something if the Epstein Files unseat a British Prime Minster who isn't in them, and not the American President who was Epstein's best friend.

FFS at this rate it looks like Starmer may not last until this evening.

Just the sort of thing you want to see to start your week😬
