On the one hand an MP found to have told the truth about a minor conviction, on the other an MP found to have lied about being locked up for kicking seven bells out of a young woman...

Nigel Farage is a hypocrite Watch the latest @ledbydonkeys.org film

One for all you traitors, grifters and bastards out there……

Camilla (who got 1 O Level) receiving an Honorary doctorate in Literature from Princess Anne (who got ‘a handful of O Levels and 2 A Levels) at the University of London. Both entirely unqualified for any academic position For services to Literature? WHAT SERVICES TO LITERATURE? A book club?

If I were a farmer with an anarchic streak I’d lob a can of soup at a painting just to see what feats of journalistic origami it prompted in the Telegraph.

"I'm glad to see Nigel Farage make a rare appearance in Britain - he's spent so much time in America, I thought he was going to turn up in the immigration statistics" Keir Starmer taking down Farage at #PMQs 😄
