A photo of the front cover of issue 1639 of Private Eye magazine with the caption "ON SHELVES NOW!" The festive cover features the headline "MERRY KEIRMAS" and a cartoon of political figures singing carols, each with humorous, altered lyrics. Among the figures depicted are Keir Starmer, Angela Rayner, Ed Miliband, and other prominent politicians. Captions include lines like "O Scum, All Ye Tory Faithful," "Gathering Winter Fu-u-el Allowance," and "Trump-a-pump-pump!" The tagline at the bottom reads, "AND A HAPLESS NEW YEAR!"

Merry Keirmas… and a Hapless New Year!

The new Private Eye is out now
