Supporters of Suella Braverman claim that her enemies are trying to discredit her by drawing attention to trivial errors like failing to obey the ministerial code, breaking International law, attempting to destroy democracy by criminalising protest, being a raving fasci- (1/100)

It seems that way.

Suella Braverman is a one-nation Conservative. That nation is 1930s Germany.

Special guest star.

Yet another reason to be otherwise occupied.

A wise precaution.

The documentary "Melania," about the US First Lady, premieres on 30th January. Checking my diary, I find that unfortunately I'll be unable to enjoy this fascinating masterpiece, as I have a prior engagement to pour bleach in my eyes and smash my testicles with a hammer.

Class.

It’s traditional to play the bagpipes at a Burns Night supper. But only if you’ve been invited, it turns out, and you know how to play them. The kilt was probably a mistake, too, as was the performance of “the last turkey in the shop” as an icebreaker.

Appearances can be deceptive. Can you make a judgement based solely on eyewitness testimony, video evidence, and what you saw with your own eyes while dismissing the barefaced falsehoods of a corrupt administration with an unbroken track record of shameless deceit? Tough call.

Thanks, I hope you enjoy the book. Let me know.

Gregory Bovino is just two kids in a long fascist overcoat, except one of the kids had to stay home with measles.

It’s devastating that a generation of Americans is coming of age who’ll find it normal to regularly spend time analysing video footage to establish whether their government has summarily executed one of its citizen in public with impunity.

EVERYONE: It’s totally damning when ICE are filmed executing people in cold blood.

ICE: You're right. We'll prevent anyone from filming us.

AI generated White House picture of Trump and a penguin hand-in-hand, walking away to enjoy a night of igloo passion in the Arctic (where there are no penguins, doh.)

Finally it makes sense. Trump was three penguins in a long overcoat all this time.

*eventual heat death of the universe*
Trump: ha ha, so much for global warming.

Why aren't all the Britain First patriotic thugs and herberts queuing up to fight Trump for disrespecting British troops? Maybe they'd like to, if only it weren't for that old problem with their bone spurs.

Sure, you could look for things to criticise in Sinners, but since it contains some of the best musical sequences ever committed to film, that shake the soul of anyone who’s got one, I’d be inclined to overlook any faults you might find.

Those who fail to learn from history are condemned to watch Donald Trump trying to rewrite it.

Shame. She loved the circus.

Yeah. Give us the ursine psychopomp.

I’d visit that.

Bad news. If they can’t afford an equestrian statue they could at least put her on an e-bike.

*watching classic silent movie*
Me: you need to unmute!

The founders of the United Nations really missed a trick by not making it an exclusive private members’ club for autocrats controlled by an unstable American demagogue. They must be kicking themselves.

The Big Garden Birdwatch is this weekend, when we all count the birds in our gardens. Here are some useful tips:
If you see sparrows, that's encouraging.
If you see starlings & finches, try to get exact numbers.
If you see Tippi Hedren and hundreds of crows watching her silently, RUN.

Trump has declared war on windmills. Like Don Quixote, but with less grip on reality.

Trump says that if America hadn’t *won* World War II, everyone in Europe would be speaking German today. On the other hand, if France hadn’t helped America win its war of independence, Trump might be speaking English today.
