Copenhagen Airport is Dante’s Inferno with better interior design.
We’ve watched every episode and have enjoyed them waaaay more than we expected. It often falls flat of course - but when it hits it can freshly subversive and beautifully surreal. Whoever booked Kasabian should be fired though.
I believe the phrase is "Hang it in the Louvre"
It’s only a Henry VIII power if it allows you to change primary legislation. If it just delegates the making of regulations it’s a sparkling Edward VIII.
The triumph of democracy is not that you can elect an angel, it is that you can kick out an SOB. Because, if you can kick out an SOB, the next one knows you can kick him out too.

@EmmaManzini A shark could swim faster than me, but I could probably run faster than a shark. So in a triathlon, it would all come down to who is the better cyclist.
I was about to go full ‘Eamonn Holmes having a stroke should not be on the front of BBC News’ until I saw it was the most read story and anyway now I’m emigrating.
What’s the Arsenalian for Totteringham?
The Scientology building in milan
Passed the Scientology building on the way to a parkrun in Milan this morning. This evangelising cult with thousands of obsessive adherents worldwide was started in bushy park in London and arranges free, friendly 5k events every Saturday.

She’s the lucky mascot! Get her a season ticket.
I won’t shift from the view that most American journalists actually cherish Trump. He’s brought them so much material that they’ve forgotten who they’re supposed to be.
The effortless combination of pompous self-importance and dull lack of historical awareness of this ‘statement’ seems to be very much of the moment for the American press.

Just had this from Planet Labs, the US government have asked satellite imagery providers for "voluntarily" restrictions on access to satellite imagery. Given a lot of them provide satellite imagery to the USG we can probably guess the outcome of not acquiescing to that request.
For the second time in a week I've heard an origin story of the London Underground smoking ban that simply isn't true. As anyone who lived through the period will tell you it was the King's Cross fire that saw the ban introduced.

Interesting way of saying ‘nasty racist thug’ you’ve got there, The Athletic.
