I want to make a joke about us exporting our landfill for other countries to deal with but I fear only 3 people would get it. www.theguardian.com/music/2026/f...

Hello, running a half marathon at the end of the year for Alzheimer’s Research UK. Any and all donations gratefully received www.justgiving.com/page/duncan-...

Every so often I remember that Girls Aloud did a version of Can't Speak French in French and it makes me laugh every time.

Post a banger that isn’t in English? *cracks knuckles* Ok, try this for starters. m.youtube.com/watch?v=iY9Y...

Casually scrolling Instagram, and a perfect example of "dangers of social media harm adults too"

Apologies for bringing the "Wuthering Heights" discourse down to a base level, but having read a few interviews with Emerald Fennell it seems to me she got given tens of millions of pounds to put her teenage masturbatory fantasy on the big screen and I for one applaud her for it.

If there's one lesson from recent history it's that nothing bad ever happens after you're unreasonably rude to an FT journalist.

Another triumph for Goodwin's campaign. No doubt he'll continue to pretend he cares about anti-semitism. www.thejc.com/news/uk/matt...

Land of the free my a***

Giving Braverman the education brief is quite a choice for Reform. I was on an education commission with her once before she went completely mad and she knew absolutely nothing at all.

Is it more potholes? I mean I'm not an expert but that would be my guess. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Vintage quote in Tina Brown piece. After lunch with the-then Prince Andrew, Boris commented, “I’m the last person to be a republican, but fuck. If I ever have to spend another lunch like that, I soon will be.”

Watched the Blair docs. Here's the quote – from Cherie – that has stayed with me: “He is an amazing politician. As a husband and as a human being, that’s a different matter. But that’s really between me and him.” What does she *mean*? www.thenewworld.co.uk/james-ball-t...

ahhhh my mate helped organise some of the Chinese gigs in that piece, totally fascinating, they explained that if you're the sort of band that's only going to be loved by 0.001% of the public but you apply that to a country of 1bn people then suddenly you've gone from the Brudenell to concert halls.

Gonna request Church House provide this decor for #Synod next time

I am, once again, reposting my only Wuthering Heights shitepost to cash in on all that sweet, sweet hate-watch brouhahattention.

#RecipeOfTheDay is, as it must be on Pancake Day, obviously enough, pancakes and, specifically, crêpes. These are the pancakes of my childhood and, furthermore, I have to eat them with just sugar and lemon juice. But that’s me: you go as wild as you want! www.nigella.com/recipes/crepes

Rev. Jesse Jackson, civil rights icon and two-time presidential candidate, dies at 84 www.nbcnews.com/news/obituar... @nbcnews.com

Beef stock? Is that like investing in gold bouillon?

Church historians now believe that St Pancake was not actually martyred by being flattened by a series of increasingly heavy weights, but rather was burnt alive in a giant pan. The former death is now attributed to Pseudo-Pancake the Areopagite, as attested in the Codex Libum of Nicomedia.

More essential castle journalism from me – featuring Raby Castle and Lord Barnard’s array of spare rooms containing cupboards of OE ties still covered in food, broken kettles, loos and computers and another full of generations of horsehair mattresses... bonkers www.telegraph.co.uk/gift/40fd676...

The Danes would like a word about a few centuries of casting for the role of Hamlet www.theguardian.com/film/2026/fe...

Now I'm not a fancy psephologist from the big city but it occurs to me that recruiting MPs from a party that's as popular as smallpox might not be the key to electoral success.

That's it, I'm calling the peak, sell everything 📉 www.ft.com/content/4252...

"The Green Party has a habit of supporting things in principle and opposing them in practice. It wants environmentally friendly transport, then opposes HS2. It wants clean energy, but opposes wind farms locally. It supports affordable housing, but opposes almost every building project it sees."

"A 25th anniversary 4K restoration of A Knight’s Tale opens in UK cinemas on 20 February." Oh God, book me in, it's not like I've done enough sobbing in the cinema this year. 😂

GUYS!!! WE'RE ON RADIO 2!!! WE MADE IT

the comments = that escalated quickly

It is so perfect, apart from the heroine is horrible so the romance doesn’t work. I wish he would bin her off and get with the hot lady blacksmith. But the rest of it is spectacular. Including the arse shot

I love this film so much and not just because of the gratuitous Paul Bettany arse shot www.theguardian.com/film/2026/fe...

Whitehall

Matt Goodwin is currently running in a seat that is 43% non-white and three months ago shared a platform with a man who doesn't consider those people to be British.

How did they get planning permission for the slope?

really enjoy that the bloke who won two golds on the luge is someone who was a national level taekwondo fighter until he got injured and then a government figure stepped out the shadows and said "let me tell you about project going down a hill really fast"

New post out: We have a guest post today from the excellent @dsquareddigest.bsky.social. "Build the Rail! Save the snails!" Or how we don't need to sacrifice the environment to speed up our mad planning processes. (Free to read) open.substack.com/pub/samf/p/b...

To get ahead of a blanket social media ban, if you could all send me 2 dozen stamped addressed envelopes I will print off and send out bespoke satirical photoshops as and when the news demands it. Subject to Royal Mail delivery schedules this should still be quicker than HIGNFY.

Reforms endless confusion around whether or not it wants to pay people to have kids continues. The party initially supported the two child benefit cap, then u-turned and said the government should abolish it, then u-turned AGAIN and said they should keep it. Now...what?

When your dad's just told you he's signed power of attorney over to the woman from the alternative therapy shop.
