The Latest Rendition

‘What can I say here? If this can be done to dictators, like that, then the [US] knows what they should do next.’ Yeah, not shell out any more dollars to your slush fund, you turd. The irony is of course that Trump has gone down to banana land just as Putin walked into the…

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…

Two-Bob

I’m old enough to remember Eric Djemba-Djemba, Boutros Boutros-Ghali and Neville Neville, so unimaginative names just don’t do it for me. The two Bob Vylans, a weird wrapper for a pair of two-bob rappers, lived up to the hyperdross. They are cack, but everybody gets their fifteen minutes of fame, and they duly unloaded onto…

Dressed Down

Well, that was an interesting presser in the Oval Office.

Bully Beef Curtains

Apparently, a guy called Navalny has died in a Russian prison. He might have choked on a Chicken McNugget while fooling about on his Playstation, for all we know. Meanwhile, at the time of writing, attacks on Gaza have killed at least 28,775 Palestinians and wounded 68,552 since October 7 2023. What with all this Eurocentric media…

The Sniff Test

Ever wondered why politics seems so baffling? It’s because very little nowadays follows any predictable or logical course. This week, Rishi Sunak opined that Vlodosmear Zelensky ought to have given an address at the Eurovision Song Contest. Next, they’ll be haggling for Les Dennis to rock up at the United Nations. They say that every…

Bad Actors

On the first anniversary of the war in the Ukraine, it’s worth reflecting on how much this squabble has warped perceptions and skewered objectivity. While reporting on Putin’s rally, a reporter from Sky News categorically stated that the Donbas region was part of the Ukraine and not Russia, which although a valid opinion is hardly…
