He has the air, the poise and the piercing gaze of Crispin Glover - circa Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle, in particular. Also the hair, and general flair. An absolute masterclass.

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?

Charli XCX’s Wuthering Heights album is banging, bonkers and better than Brat Brilliantly moody soundtrack confirms Charli XCX as a star who makes better art when not trying to deliver a hit

I loved "Wuthering Heights", an exhilarating ride. I'm still swooning since Monday's press screening. From John Cale's opening words to the magnificent costumes by Jaqueline Durran, it's heightened, hormonal and horny as hell. Jeez louise guys, what's not to like?

It is so embarrassing that it has taken nearly a decade for a British minister to say this, a statement of the absolute bloody obvious

“God bless America,” Benito proclaims, naming Chile, Argentina, and all of South and Central America and the Caribbean before finishing with the U.S, Canada and Puerto Rico. “Seguimos aquí,” (“We’re still here”) he closes, spiking a football that says: “Together, we are America.”

A large stuffed folder of files with the title “Epstein” is seen with what looks, at first glance, like a red page marker sticking out of the bottom. On closer inspection it is the bottom of a Trump red neck tie. French newspapers once again showing the kind of basic journalistic integrity lacking from most US national newspapers - whose collective negligence has helped ensure a man implicated in the world’s most notorious sex trafficking ring gets to remain President. That the orange pedo felon remains in office is a plague on all their houses. Cunts, one and all.

Brilliant work by the cartoonist, Guffo.

“The last time this shower had seats in the Senedd, when they stood as UKIP, they were led by Neil Hamilton, who lived in a mansion in Wiltshire. This time their leader lives 10 miles nearer to Wales. At this rate they will have a leader who actually lives in Wales by 2050.”

Have a read of this. Great scoop, obviously, but it’s also an absolute masterclass in how to report on these jokers. Plenty of London-based hacks could learn a lot from Martin Shipton here. If they actually wanted to…

So many killer lines! 'The bald headed killer bear of Clare County...', The Old 49er ('you're not finished!'), and of course, 'go find yourself a spin cycle!'. Have you seen the John Candy doc, 'I Like Me' yet? Tissues at the ready, Richy ❤️🎄🥂 x
