Hunger Games
A couple of the Palestinian Action hunger strikers have paused their action and will now resume their starvation bonanza in the new year. The Government was apparently ‘letting them die’. What a load of tepid, limp performative gasshiteing. And when Greta slithers in, with her Tintin-book orbs and her mong placard, you know it’s gone…

Greta Garble
Don’t look away – Greta’s back. We’d all rather hoped she’d discovered rough cider and cock by now – perhaps even grunted out a spazzer or three – but no, the slacktivist gravy train – or rather the gravy boat – is still chugging. That’s in both the ‘moving slowly making muffled explosive sounds’ and…

‘While You’re Down There, Keir…’
Was there ever an image that encapsulated the essence of Starmer quite like this? He’s the kind of bully who gets off on punching down and then folds when faced with someone with a bit more clout. Apparently, a pro-Palestinian pressure group has broken into an RAF base and zipped around on e-scooters, spraying red…

Demon Strays
Another day, another protest. Is this a functioning country or a students’ union? Sometimes, it’s hard to tell. Now, I don’t have any allegience in respect of this Israel-Hamas dust-up. It’s all tragic, but I don’t really give a toss. And let’s be honest, who really does? But what is this pro-Palestinian protest going to…

Flakermaker
Following their ‘world cup’ victory, triumphant Spaniolo player Jenni Hermoso hugged her FA President Luis Rubiales, lifted him legs akimbo aloft while the hapless prez reciprocally offered a lips-on kiss to the hopeless lez. Big deal. Apparently, a veritable shitstorm has now engulfed women’s football as he hadn’t filed a notarised consent document prior to…

Beyond Parody
They think it’s all over – it is now. England’s women’s ‘football’ players have been traumatised by their first dicking. Sorry, their first dicking in a ‘world cup’ final. I never actually tuned into the farce itself – I’d had one of those moments during the night when I had awoken and wondered whether the…

Dire ‘Straights’
Predictably, the fringe loons gagging for eight inches of stiff virtue signalling have been clambering for Sarina Wiegman to be paid the same as Gareth Southgate. I actually agree with this. They both deserve expenses only. Hardly a full-time job is it? All the coaching and tactics gets done back at the Premiership clubs. It’s…

Snookered
I’m old enough to remember when Keir Starmer and the new-old-New Labour acolytes whipped themselves into group hysteria at Boris Johnson’s claim that their boss had failed to prosecute Jimmy Savile. He was only the Director of Public Prosecutions after all – but, as he said, he had no direct responsibility for the case. We…

Harm Banned
Last week, the boss of the English FA gave an interview about the One Love captain’s armband and confirmed that Harry Kane would wear it regardless. ‘I think there’s a possibility that we might be fined. And if we are, then we’ll pay the fine. We think it’s really important to show our values. And…

15 Minutes
The artist Andy Warhol once commented that everybody gets their 15 minutes of fame. In the last few weeks, isolated pockets of Ukrainians dotted around the world will have ticked this off their bucket lists. In one local backwater in the UK, the town council organised a vigil (what else?) for the Ukraine, which drew…
