Roman Knows
I’d almost forgotten about that old wag Roman Abrahamovich. Well, he’s back in the news, this time for not coughing up £2.5b of big, frozen on the grounds of his Russian citizenship. No wonder he’s not playing ball, and good luck to him. Duplicitous government shysters had forced a Chelsea sale and then lassoed the…

Cop Cosplay
Top cop Sir Mark Rowley has defended officers after five tooled-up rozzers swooped on Heathrow to snare a guy who had pinged out a few tweets back in April. Unsurprisingly, that blew up in his face as abruptly as a silicon-pumped Rio trans-buttock. Now that his senior officers have been exposed as weapons-grade berks, this…

Führ Right
It beats me how flying English or British flags can be deemed ‘far-right’ per se. There’s always been a blissfully ignorant irony adhering to the flag-shagging moniker being mercilessly tossed out by swivel-eyed Euro-loons, who themselves blunderbuss the horrendous gold and blue motif into their every output. There are of course the usual suspects who…

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…

Fingered
The least surprising bumshell of the week has been that a gazillionaire has been outed as a handsy turd who abused his position to exploit others. Who’d have thunk it? Those who should be on trial now are the gang slithering out of the woodwork to tell us that they knew about it all along.…

Bang, Bang
I was discussing the classic Beatles album, Abbey Road, with an acquaintance and was asked what I thought about the song ‘Maxwell’s Silver Hammer’. AT THIS POINT, DO NOT BOTHER READING FURTHER UNLESS YOU ARE A BEATLES AFICIONADO For various reasons, the song garners opprobrium, allegedly even from several of the band members. Hey, the…

Scobie Don’t!
Hallelujah! T’is the season of gaslighting! Spunk sponge Omid Scobie has been probing the shallow waters of incredulity in suggesting that a mistranslation of his book led to the unmasking of the ‘royal racist’. Around the globe, translators are flummoxed because they’ve spent a lifetime translating verbs, nouns, adjectives, and other units of language that…

Rap Shite
It’s a funny old world, isn’t it? This week, some police chief blubbed through a news conference in tears, announcing that a bloke had been charged with Tupac Shakur’s murder. This was the same Tupac who glorified in cop killings just as much as cops in the US have always got off on popping caps…

Not Yewtree Again
Now then, now then. Rolf Harris has shuffled off this mortal coil, and it is rumoured that the funeral is to be televised with the event being presented by Phillip Schofield in a new version of ‘This Mourning’. It turns out that he actually Jake the Pegged it nearly two weeks ago, and the funeral…

Diane Breath
I’m no Diane Abbott acolyte – after all, the daft old bint blocked me on Twitter an age ago for mocking her abysmal arithmetic. So what if she has made a bad point, or if she defines ‘racism’ a little differently to others? Isn’t that what politics is all about? She’s just saying that those…
