The thing about Cockney Rhyming Slang is that its not a proper ‘thing’. Its not a language. Its a nothing really other than a way for chirpy cockneys (read: low-class West Ham supporting thugs) to appear chirpy, clever and enigmatic. Obscure. The synonym for which is ‘dim’ but that’s not where I’m going. I have – Read More-
America is up in arms. Some bastards voted in a moronic, egotistical, racist, misogynist orange thing to be their next president. Who’d’a thought? So they’re protesting, rioting, last night in Portland, Oregon, there was even a shooting. 3,000 miles away from Trump in New York. Because if you think about it logically, these people are – Read More-
There are, currently, 75 outstanding lawsuits against Donald Trump. He may become the first President-Elect to have to go to court and defend himself and his companies.

The one we have isn’t really enough trouble that civil war is now imminent and the entire judiciary is about to be sent to a gulag in Hartlepool until they can ‘learn to get the right answers’. Now someone is intending – Read More-
Arsene Wenger has managed Arsenal since the Ice Age. Not the last one, the Ice Age prior to that. Humans weren’t formed. You could walk from Siberia to Alaska across the ice. Can you imagine, a real ice age with no-one there to blame cars/planes/carbon emissions?? Anyway, Wenger, been there forever. And whenever they play – Read More-
This is me and the legend at the Emirates today. Bloody sun came out, ruined the selfie, but I’m the grey fuzz on the left. And its not my first visit to that noble stadium. Been there a few times. But previously I’d only gone in ‘Club Level’ and today I was down and dirty – Read More-
What the f***!!! is going on? Not only has America fallen upon itself in an unprecedented wave of hateful slagging off in a presidential run-up, making a farce of both the 2 candidates and the whole process itself, but also here! In Britain!!! Wonderful, conservative, subdued, almost anally retentive Britain. The judges decided on Thursday – Read More-
Gina Miller is a beautiful lady. She’s also very clever, incredibly successful and speaks right posh, like wot I do. Innit. She’s my new hero.
