Good to see *their* vetting procedures are as tight as ever ... 🍺

Can't help feeling Kier Starmer would've gotten less grief if he'd just come out and said;

"Mandelson's a slimy bastard, who brings sleaze and disrepute to everything he touches, so we actually thought him overqualified for the role"

from the start.
🤔

Was it this bit?
"Just listen up, man, me and my homeboy in some serious fucking shit, man. We're in a car we gotta get off the road pronto. I need to use your garage for a couple hours... Thank You for your Attention to This Matter"

I'm sure he once said he'd read the Bible, but wouldn't/couldn't say what his favourite part was 🤔 Maybe the bit where Jesus gets a hole in one on a Trump Golf Course? 😏

Paddington Bear bench 'battered' by vandals The Paddington Bear statue bench in Southampton has been targeted by vandals.

You don’t do that to the British Grim Reaper and think you can get away with it. Paddington’s sharpened his scythe and is on a train down from Waterloo to harvest some souls.

Donald Trump launches extraordinary attack on Pope Leo calling him ‘weak’ and ‘terrible’ President says US-born pope is ‘not doing a very good job’ and is ‘a very liberal person’ in unprecedented assault on leader of Catholic church

Extraordinary? It's 4/10 at best for the Orange Gobblin', a surprisingly low-powered effort, perhaps he'd not had enough Big Mac's 🤨

Why is Trump posting a photo of himself trying to heal Jeffrey Epstein?

The hype and the masks make me think "Math Rock Slipknot". They're alright for a couple of minutes, followed by a few more minutes going "do you do anything else?" 🤨

Well, they're all going to have a bit of free time today 🤔

I'm sorry I said you weren't very scary.

Melania’s rogue speech feels very Tubbs adjacent: ‘We didn’t burn him’.

Went up there in mid-January, early morning, looks great 👍

The Arse of the Deal?

Wireless festival cancelled after Kanye West banned from entering UK Rapper had been booked to play at festival in London, prompting outcry over his past antisemitic remarks

So sad that I can't go to this year's Witless Festival 🤨

It is at least plausible on this occasion 🤔

Thankfully I don't need new shoes, these were apparently in my size 🤢

"we'll f*ckin meet again, c*nt!"

I think that was Vera Lynn? 🤔

doesn't end with "Thank you for your attention to this matter" either 🤔

I wanted to say the whole "populist slurs" thing was envy, because Hannah had gotten there first, then I read the article and it seems reasonable enough 🤨

Up early, been on the rocks and now I'm going downhill fast 🤔

Easter Eggs in the Bible BREAD EGG: The first ever Easter egg was hand made from bread by Jesus at the Last Supper. Came with a free Holy Grail and two bits of bread. [Image shows a very rough basic egg made of bread in a box clearly made by a carpenter.] FIRST SMARTIES EGG: St Matthew’s Gospel describes candy-covered rabbit droppings that came “actually inside the egg”, not in a separate packet like nowadays. GOD’S POSH EGG One for the aunties: the first ‘high-end’ Artisan egg made by God himself. Dark chocolate, posh box, infinite cocoa content. [Image shows a posh egg on a cloud in heaven] ROMAN YORKIE EGG: The first Yorkie egg came in a chariot-shaped box marketed at ‘Manly Romans’. Latin wordsearch on the back. [Image shows an elaborate cardboard chariot box containing the egg] EARLY SNICKERS: Snickers used to be called Marathon and before that it was called UNG-ERWEH which meant ‘Fourteen Lashes Unto The Shepherd’. We can see why they changed it! CREME EGGS: According to the Gospel of St Matthew, Cadbury’s Creme Eggs were “absolutely massive” and had “proper chocolate” in 2000 BKE (Before Kraft Era). Scriptures describe a ‘mystery filling’ that gave mild chemical burns. [Show a giant Creme Egg in someone’s hands] SATAN’S EGG: Never one to be outdone, the Lord of Darkness sought to compete with God on the ‘sophisticated’ market. High quality dark egg cursed by Satan himself, with two free bars of ‘loathesome matter’. Withdrawn from sale. [Show an evil looking red egg in a box with ‘666’ on it, two bars of what looks like bloody flesh, blood dripping out of the front.] [Ends]

King Charles’s state visit to US will be ‘humiliation’ amid Iran war Visit with Camilla to go ahead in late April despite calls for delay over conflict and Trump-Starmer tensions
