FIFA Ranking
The latest edition of the FIFA World Cup is underway, and it already has the makings of a crass omnishambles. The Mexico-South Africa opener was refereed by some posturing goon, who was darting around, spaz-carding, like someone had marinated his love eggs in Chakalaka. The defender, Sithole, so christened after his parents had conceived him…

Tommy Führy
We’d not glimpsed much of Führage recently, and then the old wag rocked up in a tank with Derrick Chisora for the latter’s blowhard swingfest with Detontay Wilder. Incidentally, nominal determinist Wilder is the guy who claimed to Piers Morgan that his girlfriend got up the duff by scraping spooge off her body and ‘injecting’ herself.…

Iran Amok
The new Supreme Leader of Iran was on fire this week. Well, that’s what GBU-57 Bunker Busters do for you. You’ve got to hand it to him, though. For a chap in a coma, he’s not taking any prisoners. Whether it’s now coma over or come-on, this so-called war has bumbled into an almighty clusterfuck. Illegal,…

Meet the New Boss…
A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush, which is probably the extent of the strategy currently unravelling in Iran. Fundamentally – in keeping with the territorial vibe – Trump just grabbed that opportunity by the pussy. This was no veiled threat. You might have thought that Netanyahu would have known better,…

I Swear
‘Furious outcry over racial slur at the BAFTAs’. Sounds grim, but as it unravelled it got grimmer, albeit for different reasons. You couldn’t really make it up, and I swear that somewhere out in the ether, a coterie of clowns are ensconced in a circus think-tank huddle, pulling out all the stops to push the…

Forever Green
‘Territorial integrity and sovereignty are fundamental principles of international law’. So stated Slursula von der Liar after Trump’s tariff threat over Greenland. I thought the EU had deemed sovereignty an outdated concept? How wrong we all must have been during the referendum. Lest we forget, one of the EU’s go-to strategies has long since been…

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…

Smelling of Ruses
I’m probably way off the pace with this Alaska conflab, but it looks like a reshuffling of the cards in a typical Trump deal. The lore of deal-making – whatever piffle gets pushed out will be lauded as ‘great’, and the two leaders will come up smelling of ruses. It’s a funny old world right…

Cold Played
What a palaver at Astronomer – I would think that the handsy bossman is already seeing stars, courtesy of his chip-spitting missus. Mind you, I toiled in outsourced contact centres for 20 years or so, and I can’t remember a time when the CEO wasn’t banging the HR Director. Let’s face it, soaking up psycho…

Bitter X
It took all of 136 days, but the Trump-Musk bromance finally imploded. It was never not going to happen. Billionaires are in it not just for the billions but for their billions. Having been shat out of Donald’s inner circle with only a golden key to show for it, Elon looks likely to spill the…
