Film idea: Trading Places 2. Two old rich guys have a bet on what would happen if the biggest fucking idiot ever became leader of the free world.
There is literally no point helping Donald Trump. He will shit on you if you help and he will shit on you if you don't. There is no point taking any of his demands into account. Best to try to do the right thing
"I said it's quite bold of Nigel Farage to go to the US to side with Donald Trump against his own country. What did I say Roy?"
"You said he's a treacherous self-serving sack of shit"
With his little soldier standing to attention.

this photo leaves little to the imagination
Football FACT: Sheffield Wednesday Football Club are so called because they play their matches in Sheffield.
I remember singing this round the campfire at cub camp - I never heard of it again and didn't know it was by Mike Harding. Funnily enough @iantrem.bsky.social was in the same cub pack and would have been at the camp too! #smallworld

petition.parliament.uk/petitions/75... I’m not sure if this is even possible but as somebody somewhere said “you can have clean water and you can have privatised water but you can’t have clean privatised water”.
Manchester EveningNews FOUL MOUTHED PARROT ON LOOSE.
“Who’s a ****ing pretty boy then you ****ing ****ers?”
Here’s an idea. Let’s stop asking Nigel Farage what he thinks. I think we’re all well aware by now exactly what he fucking thinks. Maybe ask some grown ups instead.
A useful record of Farage’s failure and his inability to cope with it. A cheat and a very bad loser who would happily trash democracy to get the result he wants. And then remove our rights to stop us holding him to account.
Such a corrupt, egomaniacal liar should have no hope of getting power.

Photo of a crouching man holding an upright Raleigh Chopper bicycle. In the photo's inset is a drawing on white paper of a bicycle frame design, notable for the top tube and down tube connecting in a point in front of the head tube.
Raleigh designer Alan Oakley and the sketch he made on a flight back to the UK after a US visit in 1967. The design became the iconic Raleigh Chopper.
Norburn far too slow on the ball this evening. Hinchy a huge improvement, but how we miss Matt Palmer!
Happy pancake day! Nigel Farage is a tosser.
Wow.
It's disgraceful that the club is still on X.
Not sure if Man United owner Jim Ratcliffe will see this being as he literally migrated to Monaco to avoid paying tax in the UK, but we wanted to put this up outside the stadium anyway….

I can't be bullied. I can't be bought. I've stood for the same principles for many decades.
"I can't be bought"

Jim Ratcliffe is a prick. I always thought he was.
He has done nothing to suggest that he is not a prick. I loathe Jim Ratcliffe and as a result I find it very hard to get behind his cycling team. He was a prick before he got into cycling. He’s always been a prick. I hope that clears things up.
If we truly believe in free speech, then Sir James Ratcliffe has as much right to voice his opinions about immigration in the UK as any other parasitical tax dodging prune faced billionaire hypocrite who lives in Monaco.

it will really be something if the Epstein Files unseat a British Prime Minster who isn't in them, and not the American President who was Epstein's best friend.
New Bohs season starts on Sunday. Have missed live football in my life. There's nothing like shouting football advice to someone half your age, fifty yards away, who's more talented than you.
