Here’s the latest 'scoop' being spread by right wing gobshites on Shitter. Except:
-he’s not a teacher, he’s an assistant
-the school didn’t sack him, he works for an agency
-they stopped using him not for putting up flags but for posting racist bollocks and misinformation online.

How long before Nigel Farage and the Reform PLC Member of Parliament for Clacton deny they've ever been in the same building, let alone met?

Cover to a 1971 US printing of James MItchell's "A Red File For Callan" aka "A Magnum For Schneider", the first Callan novel. Published by Simon and Schuster. While it doesn't much resemble the b/w Armchair Theatre antics of the original, it's a *fantastic* cover.

The top row of the Peanuts Sunday strip was called the 'throw-away panel'. If there wasn't enough space in the comic section that syndicated it, the top row could be removed and the rest of the comic would still make sense without it. Schulz often used the throw-away panel for private/obscure jokes.

Conversely I haven't used London's black cabs in decades, partly because most drivers droned on about how the city's full of "f***ing ethnics" who should be sent back where they came from.
That and every one of them "accidentally" missed the turn into my street so they could add a bit to the fare.

Poor Tommy Robinson. What possible reason could the border police have had for stopping a known criminal who is being investigated by HMRC from taking £13,000 in cash abroad while driving a Bentley that wasn’t his and refusing to answer their questions? It’s an outrage!

FIFA President Gianni Infantino has not yet tired of licking Trump's little feet. That gutless leech will do whatever the Marmalade Manbaby tells him.

Uh... so he's openly trying to rig a foreign election for a friend of his and a friend of his top donor—Musk—by saying that Argentinians will only get $20 billion dollars in American aid if they vote for Milei?

So this money Trump is stealing from US taxpayers is not to help Argentina, but his pal?
