A cartoon by Ron Cobb (1975), showing a shadow of US B-52 bomber above cratered landscape. Two people who look like Vietnamese peasants look up; one says “they’re having problems with their economy again.”

What I'd give for a time machine...

The Beatles were a great vocal harmony group

Rare to see the three of them around a single mic

This very straight news piece buried deep within the FT never uses words like corruption or insider dealing but every detail is quietly devastating. Why is the FT virtually alone in the UK media in covering this important story?

I think the other constant is that everything Drumph does is to play the stock markets and/or oil/gas prices...

...oh, and divert attention from the EPSTEIN FILES

I think that may be the one in which a young Max Clifford appears briefly, just to lower the tone...

Seems to me that Nonce Andrew is now heir only to Savile's title as the most prolific paedo predator of modern times.

Bluesky - You won’t believe what the UKs defence attaché to the UAE is??

What the flag shaggers fail to grasp is that whenever the Royles refer to "duty" they mean duty to the Firm.

Mindless patriotism is catnip for The Plebs, as far as the Saxe-Coburgs are concerned.

It feeds The Firm.

It is quite possible to see the Trump presidency entirely through the prism of market manipulation for private gain.

2 of Britain’s favourite chaps are joining forces to invest in Bitcoin(whatever that is).
It’s bound to be a HUGE success because Nige & Kwasi go together like:
Herpes & Chlamydia
Trump & Nappies
Nads Dorries & Gin
Spurs & Managers
Lee Anderson & Kindness
Chaka Demus & Pliers.🎉
