Our saviour, our future!!!

I’ve seen the future!! And it looks like this! (See photo). May the Lord have mercy on us. Tommy Robinson will be the minister for War (formerly ‘defence’), Elon Musk will be the ambassador in Hell and in a quite amazing coup, Kemi Badenoch defects to become Reform’s ‘Minister for White People’. The thing is, – Read More-

feels good…

So Spurs are top of the league, and it feels… fabulous! Ok, so ‘technically’, Liverpool occupy that space, just for the moment, until the Burnley tosser who gave away a penalty in the 95th minute of the game, is done for aiding far Eastern betting syndicates and Liverpool get docked 27 points as a consequence. – Read More-

Stoned…

Today we had the ‘stone-setting’ for my dear, departed brother. That’s when you put half a ton of granite on top of the grave to prevent ghosts. They say a few prayers, which I’m sure are very meaningful but I’m not big on praying, in case you were in any doubts. Then they let you – Read More-

Flagging…

Tommy Robinson is at this very moment, marching through London in the ‘name of free speech’. A phrase which has now become an euphemism for ‘slagging someone off with impunity or inciting a riot’. Or more precisely, slagging someone off who I really hate, or inciting a riot against a group I disapprove of. That’s – Read More-

Murder most horrid…

They murdered Charlie Kirk. And I use the pronoun ‘they’ under advisement. Not because there were many of them, but because it has become a bit of a ‘trans’ issue. And I don’t want to be sued by some flaccid ladyboy on his way to the electric chair. I’m too careful for that. The first – Read More-

Oh Mandy…

You came and you gave without taking… Another day, another song. And Barry Manilow was a keen observer of the labour politics of the future with his rather telling song all those years ago. I always like Peter Mandelson. He was one of the good guys. Blair’s major strategist and the world’s first ‘spin doctor’ – Read More-

with their tanks and their bombs…

That’s a line from ‘Zombie’ by the Cranberries. Totally irrelevant but when I thought ‘bombs’, that line came to mind. Great track. Anyway… Yesterday was a big day for bombs and rockets. Poland shot down a couple of Russian drones destined for Ukraine. Ok, it won’t dent Putin’s massive arsenal (no relation) too much, but – Read More-

conscious bias…

Here’s a funny thing. An estimated (I tried to count, but they kept moving around) 70,000 people attended the march yesterday. Including Richard Tice, obviously, Michael Gove, for the Tories, and from the government… errrrr… well, unless you count one parliamentary researcher for a back bencher specialising in the environment, no-one. Which is a little – Read More-

Marching season…

I’ve always envied the ‘Orange Order’ in Belfast. Because they have… Marching Season!!! Like their own season, solely to march down the streets wearing bowler hats and orange sashes, just to upset, annoy and provoke the Catholics. Well, there’s probably some deeper meaning but it’s mainly to provoke the Catholics. And who can blame them? – Read More-

Resigned…

We are the resig-nation. Nowhere does it better. So in the last few days we, as that nation, have suffered not one but TWO resignations of immense importance and consequence. Daniel Levy resigned as the Chairman of Tottenham Hotspur football club, which he has run since 2001. As fans we don’t really have much to – Read More-
