Still turning Italian (and sometimes French) nonsense into English gobbledygook and not always failing at that. Still an aspiring card-carrying European (but failing at that is someone else’s fault).

"Drawn 6 years go today. It was rejected and called unfair and alarmist." (Marc Murphy) On BlueSky: @murphycartoons.bsky.social

Your daily reminder according to Brexiteers the EU has been going to fail for 11,488 days.

@mrjamesob.bsky.social It’s blimmin’ Pob! Lord blimmin’ Pob! (Aka the Gove Monster)

why is *every* newspaper/programme running with the headline "tariffs are paused" when they haven't been. What's happened is that every country (except China) gets a flat rate of 10% for 90 days.

This reminds me of Brexit and “blue passports”

Been thinking about this Zappa quote a lot lately.

At one of his frequent press conferences (because he loves being on TV), I'd love it if some reporter piped up with, "What do you say to people who call you a know-nothing narcissistic asshole, Mr. President?"

We joined the opposition to this hideous proposal, and I’m really pleased to see it rejected so resoundingly by the local council. We need to end Factory Farming of animals - it’s got nothing going for it.

So @wildjustice.bsky.social is too edgy for @privateeyenews.bsky.social ! We're fans because the magazine speaks truth to power . That's what WJ tries to do too . We were surprised when PE said that it wouldn't run our second and third adverts , especially as they gave no reason for this .

Brexiters We are going to have a big fat trade deal with the US. Brexiters Yeh, we were only hit with a 10% tariff, go Brexit.

PRAYING a journalist tricks him today by asking why he put a tariff on Heard and McDonald island. Let him answer. And then tell him it's only populated with penguins.

Bloody hell. What a point.

Yup. It feels cruel to deny deluded Brexiters their tiny sliver of a ‘win’ but, on the other hand, fuck ‘em. Weakening a country *before* an attack like this is an act of obvious treachery. We would, by any measure, be better off *in* the the EU *with* the 20% basic tariff rate.

The UK exports £360bn of goods to the EU, on which we now struggle with big non tariff barriers, compared to £60bn to the US. Imagine looking at this sh1tshow and thinking it vindicates Brexit in any way.

Local swan not being altogether friendly to local ducks. It’s his campaign of intimidation: swim very slowly after or around them in style of vintage fairground ride

What an utterly unhelpful and ridiculous thing to say. We hoped the days of unqualified ministers stigmatising the mentally unwell and disabled were over. We were wrong. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Kelly: When I was flying in combat over Iraq during the first Gulf War, I didn’t expect that there was a 10-year-old kid sitting in South Africa who would one day become the richest guy in the world and call me a traitor for doing my job. Now, he kind of acts like a 12-year-old kid

Look after the poorest & most vulnerable in your society & country. Those that can look after themselves will do so. Those 1% that are wealthier than all of the rest of us, if they live in this country, should WANT the best for it, right? Why is this controversial? *Oxfam article 2023

There is a shameful tradition of demonising disabled people. Why is Labour reigniting it? | Frances Ryan “It is a rebranding of distress, where, say, Parkinson’s is not a painful illness that affects human beings but an obstacle that prevents arms from stacking shelves for shareholders”

England's NHS leaders ordered to make £7bn cut to healthcare. 6.24m people awaiting 7.46m hospital appointments. 300,000 a year die waiting. Due to delays 2.8m chronically ill, unable to work. Govt cutting benefits, rolling back spending. Misery is a political choice. archive.ph/0NDSV

All this state resource to protect a private business, I wonder what DOGE has to say about that?

The billboards are up!

Fiona Bruce jokes when Richard Tice keeps interrupting that she might have to put a gag on him. How about we stop having Reform on every single TV and radio show possible and constantly giving them a platform? It's so obviously disproportionate. And it's constant. #BBCQT

MAGA freak on #r4today defending JD Vance by echoing far right talking points from the UK - calling migrants an invasion. Are we joining the dots yet? They want our anger directed at homeless foreigners instead of the billionaire bully boys who are looting the whole world.

Every day is a new fever dream from hell. Linda McMahon—yes, the WWE exec who exploited wrestlers, pushed bra-and-panties matches, and oversaw steroid scandals—is now dismantling the Dept. of Education on Trump’s orders. I cannot believe what I just typed is real. www.npr.org/2025/03/05/n...

I was screaming the same thing at my TV when he made this statement!!

NEW: JD Vance describes UK & French troops in Ukraine as “20,000 troops from some random country that hasn’t fought a war in 30 or 40 years”. Spits in the face of UK & EU troops that died supporting the US in Iraq & Afghanistan. So revealing. The Atlantic alliance & “special relationship” is dead.
