Tuched Up
So, England’s first German manager has entered the fickle foray of footie, kicking off with a hefty slice of withering criticism for his predecessor and a 2-0 win over Albania. Guys, you’d only lose to Albania at pickpocketing, trafficking, or blood feuds. It’s probably true that Southgate’s weightiest clanger in the last tournament was his…

Dressed Down
Well, that was an interesting presser in the Oval Office. Of course, notwithstanding the annoyance that Zelensky clearly doesn’t want to bankroll his own war, the US man-babies hardly covered themselves in glory. Since the skirmish started, Zelensky has dressed down, wearing his combat fatigues wherever he has gone, though occasionally he has opted for…

The Piper
He who pays the piper, calls the tune. For the Ukraine, that means the US will be calling the shots in peace talks. That’s come as a shock to the bloke who is the most enthusiastic piper in Eastern Europe. President Zelensky has spent the last 3 years or so travelling the globe begging for…

Accrual World
According to mainstream social philosophies, taxation is justified as a necessary mechanism to maintain order, promote economic efficiency, and ensure a fair and functional society. That all seems reasonable, even if we’d rather be trousering our wages gross. The essential premise is however much more simplistic than those high ideals. Getting down to brass tacks,…

Non-Sense
Fridge freezers bunged into hedges, black bags of household water discarded at the side of the road? We’ve doubtless all seen it. Fly tipping harms the environment, poses health risks, and can be costly for local authorities and landowners to clean up. Authorities often use surveillance cameras and heavy fines in order to deter offenders.…

Sure Thing, Muskie!
The issue with any debate about grooming – or to be precise – rape gangs is that everyone focuses on a profile of the perpetrators. Particularly when it suits their agenda. Talk about looking down the wrong end of the telescope. A fact about crime, and this applies as equally to perving as it does…

Alan She/her
Last month, a 17-year-old female footballer was sidelined for discrimination after she was found to have repeatedly asked a transgender opponent questions about his gender. The hirsute chickadee in question had a full beard and was built like a brick outhouse. Aside from the obvious query on eligibility, there must have been a tangible concern…

I Love BBC
Another day, another #meetoo feeding frenzy. Gregg Wallace was only partly right in his assessment of those addicted to the blame-gravy train. They happen to come in all shapes, sizes, ages, and backgrounds, but they all have one common characteristic: they are addicted to being the centre of attention. #memememetoo It’s always about them. But many…

Tone Death
The assisted dying rigmarole has served one purpose: it facilitated an opportunity for rehabilitation for all those careerist, shitehawk MPs to demonstrate that they are sensitive to meaningful social issues rather than being obsessed with the masturbatory obsession with endless wonga. So, they diarised a five-hour debate to explore a defining moment in the nation’s…

Tyson Fury
Wowsers! I’ve not seen anybody beaten about the ring so badly since Jimmy Savile zipwired into the main dorm at Haut de la Garenne children’s home with salivated cable ties gripped in his yellowing teeth. However, while the commentariat screeches about trashed legacies, they are omitting to consider the erstwhile pugilist Tyson’s penchant for hoofing…
