Is this the live action remake of the one where Sandy gets angry because SpongeBob and Patrick are insulting Texas?

I genuinely expected to wake up this morning to hear that Tehran had been flattened to be honest.

Die hard monarchists who think Meghan is somehow behind it all.

I seem to recall that data showed that 4% of UKIP folk voted remain at the time. Which seemed a bit, well, odd.

See also Johnson, B the morning after the Brexit vote. He thought it was going to be a heroic defeat, and his popularity would increase as a result.

His expression at the press conference after Cameron resigned was pure "Cripes, what have I done?"

Oh well, time to put the foil covered cardboard FA Cup away for eleven months.

Last time I looked, the only people who could dictate where I work were my employers.

Even if Mandelson had absolutely no clue about trafficking etc (Of course he bloody did), this revelation about the Russians connected to Epstein makes it Profumo X10.

As we speak, Daily Mail hacks are allegedly trying to construct a story over how the (seemingly extremely) young lady in that photo has been knocked unconscious by a time travelling Meghan, and brave Andrew is simply administering medical care.

Never has the phrase "Why has x died so soon, when y still lives" seemed so appropriate tonight with the death of Catherine O'Hara being announced at the same time we're seeing eye spinningly horrific allegations in the Epstein files against the Fanta Fuhrer.

Palate cleanser desperately needed, so for the next hour I shall be watching a show from days of yore, that will, at some point, contain the words "Grieg! By... With him and him!"

Times Radio here have said there's something in the files that says Andrew invited Epstein to Buckingham Palace AFTER he was released from house arrest....

The whole damn show has no redeeming qualities at all, and all the people involved are quite simply amoral repugnant individuals from Sugar downwards.

I'm not that keen on it, truth be told.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Stay free

Assume this is from a BBC VT Xmas Tape.

Which, bearing in mind if that had been broadcast live on Radio 1, DLT would have been out the door before he sat down makes me wonder if this was whilst a record was playing, and they then reshot it for TV purposes.

If you there's not at least a discussion at the FA and or SFA about the possibility of boycotting the World Cup, then that's pretty shameful.
