cannot stop laughing

Oh, that's sad* news. *fucking fantastic

Brilliant, UK is great we have kind compassionate people loving here. Don't let the racists and fascists denigrate us any longer

Shadow Chancellor [sic] Robert Jenrick unveiled our fully costed [sic] Economic Rescue Plan to a packed out [sic] press conference. Read all about it in the latest from Nigel’s Notebook. parodypm.substack.com/p/its-bobby-...

Some of the poppies on display in Parliament are so large they could easily be adapted to receive Sky Sports.

The government looks, as it should, in total charge. Small but important measures announced by Healey. The Tories are a shambles - zero self awareness and responsibility for the mess they made in their 14 years in office. #Budget

So much has happened and yet it still seems like yesterday we said goodbye. #doodleaday

Overseas donations to Labour make up 0.15% of their funding, Tories it’s 3.57%. Shockingly for Reform it is 80% Time to set a limits.

Talking about the differences between BBC iPlayer and ITVX, the main one that really pisses me off is that if a programme is currently being broadcast, you can’t watch it from the start on ITVX. Really annoying.

'The occasion was so historic, Prince Andrew was turned out in the paraphernalia and robes of a Royal Paedophile, following in the long tradition of Royal Paedophiles, whose garb was hand-stitched by specially selected nonces resident in HMP Stafford D-Wing.' #AbolishTheMonarchy

In The House of Guardaboschi (1912), Gustav Klimt transforms travel into a motif. By flattening the landscape, he creates a shimmering mosaic where garden and architecture merge into a dense tapestry of color.

Morning.

The Staffordshire Shitshow Reform UK Leader in Staffordshire, Martin Murray has just resigned. That’s another fash in the pan Reform UK leader.

After the Ballon D'or, into the studio struts the Ballon Bore, Nigel Farage. #r4today

What a night for Harry Kane at the London Palladium

Up next for Tommo

I've always believed Oxford Street could be so much more than a road. Today we begin a new chapter as the nation’s high street goes traffic free, creating a place where people can spend time, enjoy the atmosphere and experience the very best of our city.

They just don’t even try to hide it, do they?

Imperial units? In 2026? Jenrick is several Barleycorns short of a Cubit.

Bolsonaro's loss is not just a loss for Bolsonaro. It's a loss for Trump. For Musk. For Milei. For Netanyahu. For Farage. For Meta and Zuckerberg. For the meat barons, the fossil fuel corporations, and the rest of the neocolonial looters. And it is a massive win for humanity and the living planet.

BBC News just interrupted its coverage to go, live, to Nigel Farage - a man with no contitutional standing in our setup - responding to the budget - a document which nobody has seen yet. WHY

Good answer... #RejoinEU #JoinEU #Breturn

Hollywood bloopers from the 1940s Original post

Doesn’t matter how you voted if you were front and centre in a Brexit government, actively overseeing the shrinking of our economy, our influence and our opportunities, while you rolled around in the trough. We’ll be disregarding everything you now say, thanks.

Great news from Brazil to wake up to. Go Lula. Trump and Netanyahu next would be nice.

A life in acting. It’s been good to me. Richly rewarding and utterly ridiculous… in equal measure. 😄 Long may it continue!

As an amused observer of Manchester United, I can't wait for Jim Ratcliffe's next sage piece of advice on how Britain should be run.

Currently on @lbc.co.uk @lewisgoodall.com has Bob Jenrick's on the ropes and it's delicious

Manchester United need someone with the determination, creativity and never say die attitude of Mason Mount's agent. #MUNBOU

And true to form, Farage and the Tories (Philp) respond by being totally dishonest about it… Freedom of movement with the EU requires EU citizenship. Immigration requires visas. Talk of ‘betrayal’ and ‘uncontrolled migration’ is the mark of a liar or a fool. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

How is Donald Trump’s criticism of President Zelensky interpreted in Moscow? “As a mandate to continue military pressure,” writes one Russian paper. I ask Muscovites to name one word that’s important to them & read what Russian schoolkids are taught about “defence of the Motherland.” #ReadingRussia

Klimt locks rooftops and water together in Houses at Unterach on the Attersee (1916). By turning the village into a shimmering, geometric grid, he flattens the landscape into a stack of colorful blocks that blur the line between nature and architecture.

Jim Ratcliffe has reacted to Man United's dismal form by sacking three bar staff, two security guards and an assistant in the ticket office. #MUNSOU

The presenter of #r4today opines.

The reinvention of Jeremy Hunt as a sage and elder statesman overlooks his role as a participant in the creation of the current shitshow. #BBCLauraK

This is good advice whatever the weather

If there was a rank order of improvements, smoking restrictions would be near the top. Smoking was everywhere - in pubs, public transport, workplaces, doctors smoked on duty, TV presenters lighted up on election specials..

I see this year's Worst Person in the World competition is down to the final two
