A story in Private Eye, headlined "Minority representation on TV causes outrage". The article reads: "There has been widespread support for prominent Reform MP Sarah Pochin after she complained about the over-representation of minorities on television.

Said one angry viewer, "She's right. Every time you turn on the telly there's another Reform MP being interviewed by Laura Kuenssberg."

She added, "I respect their way of life and their strange customs, but Reform MPs comprise only 0.7 percent of the House of Commons. Yet Nigel Farage is on Question Time more than Fiona Bruce."

"I'm not prejudiced. Some of my best friends are swivel-eyed loons, but enough is enough. There are too many people with angry red faces on television."

Last night in Caerphilly was a disappointing night for TV broadcasters but hopefully it won’t hinder the amount of coverage given to Nigel Farage throughout today and into the weekend

Half the major parties in the United Kingdom appear to be in a desperate arms race to see who can be performatively cruel enough to foreigners to earn a "based" quote tweet from Elon Musk.

Opinion | I never personally had a Nazi-curious phase. But as a fair minded journalist, it’s my job to pretend this is a normal rite of passage for American men who might later go into politics.

The Pope tweets: "The poor are not there by chance or by blind and cruel fate. Nor, for most of them, is poverty a choice. Yet, there are those who still presume to make this claim, thus revealing their own blindness and cruelty. #DilexiTe"

Someone replies: "I was so hopeful I could be a Catholic again after the disaster that Francis was, guess we just get Francis 2.0 now and I am heartbroken.  How do I stay a Catholic now...I don't want to lose faith but I am. You belong to someone else, not God."

Keir Starmer calls Aston Villa "antisemitic"!
YouTube video by Femi - F Politics! Keir Starmer calls Aston Villa "antisemitic"!

SERIOUSLY!?
Maccabi Tel Aviv fans were racially violent in Amsterdam last year!

They're not being banned from Aston Villa because they're Jewish.

They're being banned to avoid a race war on the streets of Birmingham!

Mixing the two IS ANTISEMITIC!

A whole bunch of us have grown up in the UK knowing to flee in the other direction if we spot this flag anywhere. We’re not going to pause to see if there are stickers stuck below them.

And if they’re stuck elsewhere, we will not get close enough to see the text - again, we’re just going to leg it.

Article reads:
Woman named as Archbishop of Canterbury in historic first 

The 63-year-old archbishop-designate is married to Eamonn Mullally, with whom she has two children. Originally from Woking in Surrey, she was the UK's chief nursing officer from 1999 to 2004.

This article manages to name her husband before it names… her.

Canada will be the next target if Trump attempts & succeeds at a military takeover of the U.S. and enforces a dictatorship. The most strategic thing we can do right now as Canadians is support those Americans peacefully resisting Trump.
