It is with great relief and joy that we can today announce that the 2022 World Cup will, after all the controversy and scandal, indeed be played in Qatar. As originally voted, selected, elected and chosen in a very honest, uncorrupt and logical way, organised as ever, in the impeccable standards we’ve come to expect – Read More-
An Irishman walks into Spearmint Rhino one night. Rather, an Irishman staggers into Spearmint Rhino one night, blind drunk, and, remembering nothing of events the morning after, finds a credit card receipt from that worthy establishment, to the tune of £7,500. Its not a joke, but sure has a worthy punchline. Had he been sold – Read More-
Saw a great movie last night. This is where I leave you. That’s what its called. And it was a preview as part of the London Jewish Film Festival. Because being Jewish is not just about chopped liver and bagels. Its not just about supporting Spurs (oyyyyyy; see later) and having opinions about everything. Its – Read More-
Living in London brings certain responsibilities. Most importantly you must always avoid any of the big tourist attractions. Even though no person with any degree of sense or taste should ever visit Madame Toussauds, whatever their nationality, for Londoners it is an imperative that such a shallow, hollow, pathetic facsimile showing of humanity’s obsession with – Read More-
Anjem Choudary, the hate-preacher and probable radicalising all-round horrible person, wants to go to ISIS. Not, as he claims, to ‘participate in terrorist acts’, but merely to live his dream of being in a Sharia state. Fine by me. I’ll start a whip-round for his ticket today.

If the Republicans win control of the Senate in the up-coming mid-term elections in the States, then they will control everything, already enjoying a majority in the House of Representatives. Leaving Barak Obama, as a Democrat President, in a rather sorry position of not being able to pass any motions. Political constipation. He would become – Read More-
Mauricio Pottechino, Spurs esteemed head coach, can understand the frustration of Spurs fans because ‘we are still 3 points off the Champions League places’. We’re also 5 points off the relegation places, thanks only to a rather messy win at Villa Park yesterday. But Mauricio’s cup is indeed half full, and that’s not counting the – Read More-
Its a shitty day here in London. Dull and wet and wetter and then more wet. And for ‘wet’ read: ‘no tennis’. Which is awful. Someone should invent indoor tennis. Oh they have. And I don’t like that either. So what does that leave? It leaves football. That’s what it leaves. Lots of football. And – Read More-
The Virgin ‘Galactic’ rocketship crashed yesterday somewhere over California. Not on its way to the Moon, or to Alpha Centuri or Mars, but to the Mohave Desert to test the fuel. Shame. Pilot killed, another injured and half a billion dollars worth of high tech aviation left in pieces on the floor spoiling the ecology – Read More-
