Such is the way Matthias' photos were cropped in B-sky's formatting that I thought they'd dug up Enoch Powell for a comment. Then I remember we have our 2025 version of 'noch.

This is a lovely piece. Friend of mine has been going to Como games as he has an apartment there - become quite a place for star spotting

We flounced out of the EU on the say-so of politicians who lied to us. And what a total shitshow that’s turned out to be. The polar opposite of what they promised. Now the call to flounce out of the ECHR. By the same people. Telling the same lies. Has the country been kicked in the head by a horse?

Some televisual observations:

Season 3 of Squid Game feels like a final hurrah. I'm only 2 episodes in, but...

Also, How Are You, It's Alan (Partridge) also feels like a struggle. I loved This Time. But not sure about this one... albeit only 1 episode in. Does it get any better?

In Chicago ICE goons drag children out of bed, ransack apartments, later tear gas protesters, arrest more, attempt to make an arrest in a hospital.

And British politicians like Bad-Enoch and Farage and right wing newspapers see this and want to replicate ICE here!!

Maniacs.
