An absolute masterclass in exposing hypocrisy.

Stop what you are doing and give it your time.

Ernest S. Harbaugh, a Cybertruck owner from Ohio, states that 28 children laughed at his Cybertruck after a minor problem resulted in it being towed on a flatbed.

Please don't put in the newspaper that 28 children laughed at me

You don't spend a fortune getting a criminal authoritarian elected, then repeatedly voice support for the furthest right party in every country - including Germany, then do a Nazi salute at the new President's inauguration without being a Nazi. He does not get the benefit of the doubt.

Absolutely you can argue with the nature of the reporting, but the world’s richest man who controls the most notable social media platform and has the ear of Trump deciding to go all in supporting the British far right is undoubtedly a major, lead news story and it’s stupid to pretend otherwise

Statement issued after Trafford Centre chaos leaves kids in tears Drivers were stuck for hours

It's almost like if you build an out of town shopping mall with huge amounts of free parking, it encourages people to drive.

The Trafford Centre is actually very well connected public transport, with lots of buses and trams as well as for cycling.

A reminder that Sadiq Khan successfully won three elections in a row by large majorities against Conservative opponents, one of whom, Shaun Bailey, was then given a seat in the House of Lords for life.

Funnily enough I don't remember the Daily Mail describing that as a "reward for failure"

Viz Letterbocks letter reading as follows... "Joseph Smith discovered some buried documents that inspired him to start the Mormon religion. The only documents I ever found were bongo mags under a bush on my way home from school. One can only imagine how different things might have been if Mr Smith had been guided by such inspirational tomes as these. Eldon Furse, email"

Detroit killed the sedan. We may all live to regret it GM ending production of the Chevy Malibu underscores that the Big Three are done with sedans. But consumers may not flock to expensive SUVs in response.

Car bloat is a disease – and it’s spreading.

Here are a few of the stories I wrote in 2024 about dangerously huge vehicles. 🧡

This year GM killed the Chevy Malibu, the last sedan available to Americans from the Big Three. 4/5 new US cars are SUVs or pickups.

I am very sad to learn belatedly of the death of Jeremy Seabrook. Met him a couple of times and saw him speak too. He came up with one of the best quotes I ever heard. "Working class people are only nostalgic because they're always having things taken away from them." RIP to a proud polemicist.

As gloriously baffling a programme as Bullseye generally is, it really is quite touching when Jim Bowen tells unemployed contestants "sorry to hear that son, you never know, things might start looking up again soon" and very clearly means it. The other side of The Eighties there.
