Happy birthday, Dad. Time to come back now, it’s all gone a bit rubbish without you. ❤️❤️❤️

As usual, it all comes down to the Italians

FINALLY! The definition of US politics that explains everything

True story this. Went to the funeral yesterday for a guy who played the dame every year in the local panto. The vicar stood in front of the coffin and asked where he was and we all shouted 'he's behind you.' A lovely moment.

THIS is the content i am here for! For millions of people to be watching this… www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Sums it all up really

this week, a summary:

Lots of amazing details in this, including this story about Andrew Lloyd Webber’s reaction to the 2019 film Cats.

Well that’s enough fun for today. I still think that this is the best skeet/tweet/whatever I’ve seen on here so far so why not…

TRANSLATION: After a traumatic few days that wiped trillions off the global economy, people started selling off US bonds and I soiled myself. And while that is in no way unusual, on this occasion it was actually meaningful.

Absolutely! The man who said that satire was dead when Kissinger was given the Nobel Peace prize and wrote sooo many great songs. My favourites definitely include the Hunting Song and Poisoning Pigeons in the Park but too many to choose from

I regret to inform the Market Geniuses that things will get worse again, but glad to see we're all having fun today pretending that President Business isn't just pulling all of this directly out of his ass

Oh god do we all know the feeling!

I think the technical term is Bloody Hell! Has got worse since. Looks as if China is Not Amused…

Setting tariffs is not some presidential power set out in US constitution. Congress has delegated this power to Trump, and Congress can take it back. This ultimately is about Congressional weakness as about Presidential madness. This problem has a constitutional solution, if Congress wants it.
