The next time I hear the name Peter Mandeldon on the News, it had better be with the words "arrested" and "charged" used on the same sentence.

Those saying the attack on Ilhan Omar was “staged” are the same gullible dopes who actually think this moldering meat scarecrow took a bullet to the ear

Latest Morning Star cartoon, out in print Thursday morning

Over a week late to wish the wonderful Dolly Parton a very happy 80th birthday. A great singer, songwriter, musician, and magnificent human being. My humble caricature, exaggerated hair height (not much, to be fair) and poor pun on is all I can offer. A belated Happy Birthday, Queen!!

Musk's childish AI tools, as well as the lack of proper policing and regulation, have turned X into a hideous pit of misogyny, which appears to be exactly what the aspiring pornographer and fascist fanboy wants. #ElonMusk

A caricature I scrawled of Robert Jenrick a number of years ago, before Ozempic shrivelled his ample gerbil jowls to a gaunt Goebbels-like fizzog. A man who would paint over a mural of cartoon characters for children. #robertjenrick

Stephen Miller is a shit. #stephenmiller #trumpisafascist #abolishICE

Latest cartoon for the lovely @bylinetimes.bsky.social

What a monstrous bunch of venal shits. Trump and his Band of Bastards are making the world a hellhole of a slurry pit. Coloured pencil and marker pen on A4 paper. #trumpisafascist #trumpisacriminal #icegestapo #Venezuela #Greenland

Quick bit of Sunday satire. What's happening in Palestine is pure gangsterism. Peace deal? Another opportunity for the greedy to disenfranchise the poor and to further a criminal, colonial enterprise.

A caricature of ... erm ... me. I look a bit rough because my brain is impaled on the end of a pencil that's been forced through my skull via the earholes. It's probably metaphorical or something.

Donald Trump's rambling rant at the UN really was something, wasn't it? Deranged babblings of the worrying kind ... wild conspiracy theories about escalators and teleprompters, among other things. According to Trump, the "greatest con job ever perpetrated in the world" is not Trump's own presidency.

A new cartoon (with apologies to Robert Crumb), dabbling with ink and marker pen. It's all good and well Starmer recognising Palestine as a state, but maybe not assisting, funding and arming Israel should be the next step, eh?

🔴The British News Organisations 'Obeying in Advance' to Donald Trump The coverage of this week's Trump state visit is a worrying sign of what will happen if a Trump-like figure is ever elected on this side of the Atlantic www.adambienkov.co.uk/p/the-britis...

My new cartoon is on the dark side of the humour spectrum. You've been in this situation where your mind is screaming as you listen to someone drone drivel, oblivious to your boredom, incredulity and/or astonished sense of offence and insult. Pen on A4 paper. #Freud #shutup

I’m now taking orders for Jake Thackray - The Unsung Writer. A chance to read his wonderful prose. By agreement with Jake’s family, proceeds will go to Amnesty International, a cause he supported. #JakeThackray #AmnestyInternational www.paulthompsonmusic.co.uk/product-page...

A report by the United Nations has concluded Israel is committing genocide in Gaza Israels response? The authors of the report are Hamas and are antisemitic

Hind Khoudary reporting a few minutes ago that people are fleeing Gaza City

Wee Tommy Robinson ... a little hate-fuelled grifter.

Louise Regan: "More journalists have been killed in Gaza in 22mths than in WW1, WW2, the Korean War & the Vietnam War combined. Their crime? Bearing witness to what is happening every day & sharing it with the world. Shame on those who have remained silent throughout this genocide"

Peter Mandelson is an odious individual, possibly made in a petri dish in which the toenail clippings of Dr Crippen, slug pulp, celery juice and the used toilet paper of H.P. Hovercraft have been left to grow mould. And he says there will be more embarrassing revelations in the Epstein files.

Jon Yates claims that after chants of death to the IDF at Glastonbury Jewish kids in the UK are more worried they'll face violence. Ava Santina explains conflating the IDF with Judaism is wrong You know who will face violence today? Palestinian kids who'll be murdered by the IDF

Happy 92nd Birthday to living legend Willie Nelson. #WillieNelson

"The removal of Palestinians from their land and their extermination under the fog of war.. is undeniably Israel's war aim, embedded in its systematic policies to deprive the Palestinians of food and decimate their hospitals..." Jasmine Moussa at the ICJ

Reposting this because it's tragically appropriate today. #PrinceAndrew

Israel has murdered at least 19 people in Gaza so far this morning.

It's St. George's Day, apparently. The story's got a dragon in it somewhere, so here's a cartoon from the archives about Daenerys Targaryen. #GOT

Who did this? 🤣

We all have our own definitions of the word “good”

"We're now seeing the most brazen admission of a desire to enact collective punishment of Palestinians living in Gaza" Dr James Smith, who has spent time working in Gaza, on Israel denying over 2m people the necessities needed to sustain life.

Read this book. One Day Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This, by Omar El Akkad.

Happy Birthday to Charles Baudelaire. Born on this day in 1821. The caricature and doggerel are from a few years ago. #Baudelaire

Can we stop calling these atrocities "deportations." These people sold to El Salvadorian prisons were not deported. Deportation is a process that did not take place. They were rounded up and removed with no process. They were kidnapped, not deported.

Israel has attacked a family home in Gaza, killing 9 people (including 4 children)

Nebal Farsakh from the Palestine Red Crescent Society: "Accountability should never require video evidence" If this video had never emerged, Israel would have continued lying, western media would have kept faithfully reporting those lies, & eventually the news cycle moves on. It happens every day

Antony Loewenstein: "What's happened in Gaza is over 200 media workers killed is more than every other global conflict combined in the last 100 years.. the lack of international outrage over that speaks volumes about how so many in the western press have a hierarchy of whose important"

It has been a month since any aid entered Gaza. Meanwhile, Israel has announced its intention to seize large areas of Palestinian territory. Our government's response? To continue to allow the supply of arms to Israel.

Remembering the great Brian O’Nolan - Flann O’Brien/Myles na gCopaleen- who died on April 1 (of course) in 1966.

"When money’s tight and hard to get And your horse has also ran When all you have is a heap of debt A pint of plain is your only man..." Flann O'Brien who died on this day 1966
