Oh, the irony of Fatso the Warmonger’s childish desperation for a Peace Prize…….

You can’t help feeling that The Beeb’s Mason might be a card-carrying Reformer. Who knows? Clever name though, for the Regression Party…….

Spot on! Not a member but delighted for her/them. More worrying though, is the numbers for Reform. After that foul Party Party Political broadcast, it says an awful lot about the British electorate. What it says is not good.

Well, the net of BS around Fatso has big holes then. Oh dear, how sad, never mind.

If Reform think that cynically trying to attract the ageing followers of religious superstition will take the country forward under jingoistic flags, then they’re misreading the mood. “Join Regression” doesn’t have much of a ring to it, particularly when associated with racism and misogyny.

Lord of the Flies. Lauded in its day and for some time, as a societal allegory, it’s dated, naïve and facile. This new production, stunning setting notwithstanding, does nothing to give it new relevance.

Whatever his lawyers may bleat, someone that wealthy and with all his connections is always going to be a flight risk.

I wish I believed that both he and AM-W will be prosecuted but I predict “insufficient evidence”. The Establishment wins.

Brown urges police probe into whether Andrew used RAF bases to meet Epstein
Airfield (s), he certainly did. Nelsonian eye, I fear

“ non-combat troop deployment”. Wtf does that mean, Bozo, other than getting you BBC airtime that you don’t merit, you fat shit. ?

Why is the BBC giving airtime to the passé, Boris the Bloated Buffoon?

Welcome damage has been done to The Firm’s position and perception in the world but we should be under no illusion that a prosecution will follow, on the misconduct allegations. We have just to hope that the searches find something on the other awful stuff.

FFS. It’s a minor charge. Very hard to prove. Deflects from the awfulness of the Epstein connection and disses the child survivors. Business as usual for the dark forces and The Firm.

For satire to work, it must either be so outrageous as to make us take pause or it must be rooted in truth. I believe this is satire rooted in truth.

Quite right but let’s hope that arrest on a lesser charge doesn’t gloss over the other, much worse stuff.

And, of course, he’s been given plenty of time, before the searches that this arrest now allows, to get rid of as much corroborative evidence as possible.

Even if there is no eventual prosecution (likely, imo, given RH influence) the police must be as confident as they possibly could be, that there is a case to answer and irreparable, and appropriate damage has been inflicted on The Firm.
