A sexy motherfucker showing off a well-turned kneecap while wearing some fab gear. Gives me the horn. He’s legal tender alright.

There is only one person I wish to see on the banknotes. No more discussion necessary.

The first lesson of war is β€˜know your enemy’ – and Britain’s enemy now is Donald Trump | Simon Tisdall As the Iran disaster escalates, the US president should be seen as an enemy whose actions threaten the lawful, democratic way of life everywhere, says Guardian foreign affairs commentator Simon Tisdal...

It’s time to cut our ties with America and this not so special relationship.

β€˜This is Trump’s war of choice. But Britain has choices, too. 250 years after the American colonists broke free of empire, it’s time for a British Declaration of Independence.’

We are looking at a black and white photo of a woman in a long skirt, waist length jacket with a big hat and fur stole around her neck. She is standing on a set of stairs to the Hall.

We are looking at a woman with white bobbed hair wearing a red robe with faux fur lining. She is wearing a jewel of office around her neck. She is sitting in an old oak chair in the Great Hall.

Happy #InternationalWomensDay!

It won't come as a surprise to you, that the Merchant Adventurers were mostly male, however women did play an active role in the Company. In other words; they kicked ass.

Here below is a shorter than it should be thread of these very cool women:

"If it's true that the Iran war will mark 'Jesus's return to Earth', as US forces have been told, at least that would suggest there was some kind of plan"
Stewart Lee on Armageddon

New Stewart Lee column.
'β€œPresident Trump has been anointed by Jesus to light the signal fire in Iran to cause Armageddon and mark his return to Earth”. To be honest, I preferred Jesus when he just healed lepers, made a small amount of fish feed more people....'

John Sweeney Writer and Broadcaster John Sweeney is a reporter, old school, and has written 12 books, his latest thriller is The Useful Idiot: "enthralling" - The Observer.

1/3 I'm writing a book about Nigel Farage for Headline.

Some of his pals are blanking me.

Is it because after I reported on the killing of a Polish man in Essex in 2016, he said that I had caused him "more misery than any other in 25 years in politics"?

Meet Mackenzie Bly (not his real name; see back cover).
I wanted to write something purely funny, but fell in love with my lead character along the way.
It's out in August, but the lovely proofs, with cover by Jim Kay, have just arrived.
Repost before tomorrow (Sun) evening, and I'll pick a winner.

Migration is part of what makes this country great.

We're not an island of strangers - we're an island of neighbours.

The Green Party will always support fair & managed migration.

The US didn’t enter World War Two until two years and three months after it began and then only when it was attacked directly at Pearl Harbour. Until that point there was huge opposition in the US to the idea of opposing Hitler.

Lib Dem Leader Ed Davey:

"Tax exiles like Isabel Oakeshott and washed up old footballers who mock ordinary people who stay in the UK and pay our taxes... As we protect them, it's only right for tax exiles to start paying taxes to fund our armed forces, just like the rest of us".
