As a man of the people, I naturally used a private jet provided by a crypto billionaire based in Thailand for my latest publicity stunt.

He’s a winnet on Trump’s arse.

But, rather than receiving a formal invite to meet Trump, Farage was in fact invited to Mar-a-Lago by a member of the club, according to multiple people briefed on the matter They said Farage had hoped he would be able to catch Trump for a conversation as the US president was scheduled to travel to Mar-a-Lago that evening. However, Trump had a change in his itinerary and decided to stay instead in Doral, about an hour`s drive away The Reform leader's failure to secure an audience with the US president underscores a weakening of ties between the two populist leaders who famously formed a close friendship in the vears before and after the 2016

Massive humiliation for Farage, who tipped off the UK press that he was flying to Florida to have dinner with Trump... only for Trump to decide he had more interesting things to do when Nigel arrived.

Can someone photoshop it so Melania is clopping together a pair of coconut shells?

Happy International Women's Day to all my sisters! I'm grateful to my mother, aunts, extended family and friends for being wonderful role models. #InternationalWomensDay2026

To robbery, slaughter, plunder, they give the lying name of empire; they make a desolation and call it peace.

UK only.

This

A photo of the front cover of issue 1670 of Private Eye magazine, with the caption “on shelves now.” The main headline reads “TRUMP ATTACKS IRAN,” with a subheading “HOW OPERATION EPIC FURY UNFOLDED.” The cover features four photo panels set in the situation-room with US political figures seated around a table. Speech bubbles add dialogue: “Is the Supreme Leader dead?” followed by “No, Trump always looks like this!”; “Mission accomplished!” answered with “Yes, I’ve killed the Epstein story”; “What happens next?” with the reply “Popular revolt and regime change,” and a follow-up, “In America?”; and finally, “Why have you started this war?” answered with “So that I can stop it,” alongside “I’ll ring the Nobel Committee.”

Trump Attacks Iran. How Operation Epic Fury unfolded…

The new Private Eye is out now.

If Isabel Oakeshott is thinking about fleeing Dubai, I hope she stops in the first safe country.

Elect good hearts. Empathetic people. Christ, Ukraine seems to have nailed it with Zelenskyy. Maybe comedians are the way to go!

You can't analyse this stuff. It's the foreign policy equivalent of free jazz.

Deep pinkish serene fox with looser and yet looser squiggles

Complex but stupid yellow ambulance with pink pastelly ness and two monkeys sitting on top of it . Finished while listening to James O’Brian interview Gary Lineker

A wax pastel fox sort of squinting and having interesting glyphic qualities

I’ve added a fox, a monkey ambulance and a fox (drawings) to my website so people can have small but miraculous art if they want it

Anyone got any of those Trump “i did that” stickers left?

RIP Len Garry, one of the original Quarrymen and a lovely man. #LenGarry

Don't hold back.

Update: WE WON!

Many congratulations to you all. And well deserved! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Zac Goldsmith pivoted from bit-right-greeny-centrist to dog-whistle anti-immigration racist to try and beat Sadiq. Got himself smashed in the London Mayorals as a result. As every Tory has since.

Crazy to think the lesson Labour HQ keep taking from that nationally is 'be more like Zac"

No vote for Boris Johnson or his own Nadhim Zahawi then?
