The Same Game
You’d have to have a heart of stone not laugh at the current Brussels pantomime, and we’re not yet even in the run-up to Christmas. The anglosphere has converged to squeeze France out of a $90bn submarine contract, and French indignation is, well, ripe. Strangely, there seems to be no sign of smug Europhiles gleefully…

Radical, New Triumph
These are challenging times for Guy Verhofstwat and all the rabid, butthurt EU fruitcakes after Emma Raducanu’s US Open win. They’re all stuck between the rock of wanting to claim 50% of the title in the EU’s name and the hard place of their hatred for the China and the UK. Momma said there would…

Bob-Bob-Bobbing Along
Migrants are once again sticking their oar in, and politicians and commentators are rowing in the wrong direction. The row this time is about UK Border Force plans to block passage and push them back to France. Sounds pretty reasonable to me. If I go steaming into a shop to rob it, I’ll expect to…

Shut Your Cakehole
It’s a funny old world. Droning, bleeding hearts are seeing their piss boiled by current issues with supply chains and highlighting these as a direct consequence of Brexit while also bemoaning the challenges faced by EU citizens currently domiciled in the UK. Two sets of inevitable consequences of Brexit – one for I-told-you-so gloating and…

Fish-Fingered
And so the inevitable farce plays out. While the Taliban had a cause, the majority of Afghans had a greater prize in the cross hairs of their beady eyes – the opportunity of a new life in the West with all those taxpayer-funded trimmings. Sure, there are dissidents whose body parts might have been destined…

Hari-Kari
Ooer, Matron – somebody’s put sand in the motion lotion, and Ofcom have pulled out of Stonewall’s tight squeeze on the nation’s current subservience to LGBTadinfinitim+ However, what is happening within Stonewall is nothing new. Factions have pressed for a change in direction and focus on policy, which will inevitably have consequences. The broader the…

Bacon Mid-Air
I’m not sure what is the most troubling – Dominic Raab avoiding calls like a temp in a 1990s call centre or the fact that he reputedly spunked £40k on a holiday in Crete. That’s a shedload of kleftiko, or possibly some other form of middle-class entertainment. Meanwhile, Johnson has announced that the situation around…

The Queen’s Shilling
Anybody gasping at the sight of the Taliban surging to power in Afghanistan probably hasn’t read any world history books for sometime, if ever. The country remains the epitome of resistance in the face of foreign incursions. Britain, Russia, and now the US and friends. Rocking up there is on a par with invading Russia…

Milking and Bilking
The candlelit vigils are underway in Plymouth, and the collection buckets have been a-rattling. The political and activist rinsing is also in full swing. It’s the post-tragedy UK we know and love. Now that the Plymouth trigger man has been linked to so-called incel philosophy — that’s millennial code for geezers who can’t get a…

Hip Shooters
It wasn’t just that Captain Caveman geezer who’s been shooting from the hip this week. After the Plymouth pee-ow—pee-ow—pee-ow, every Facebook fruitloop crawled out from under their personal stone to have their tuppence worth. Firstly, mental health came under the microscope, but to be fair we weren’t looking at in-depth analysis here. Yes, the shooter…
