Love the improvised armoured car, literally an armoured CAR 👍

'The covenants aren't lite enough yet! No one will EVER buy this' 😑

No pinky promises accepted, unless accompanied by a hugely oversized brown envelope.

I'm going to go with 'Never': they may admit it to themselves in their quieter moments, but cult fanatics will rarely recant publicly 🤷‍♂️

Gary Bass' much more recent Judgement At Tokyo is even more explicit and made the Allies complicit, even though some of them were completely on board anyway

It's a very good (long-form Klaxon alert) article from Toby Buckle, and (probably) not just because I agree with almost all of it! 😑🫡

Barney Ronay's article in the Guardian was magnificently bleak!

I'm guessing he wasn't a professional unicyclist then...

Honestly, he sounds the best bet yet 😑🫡

Igor Tudor enacts ghostly role in the most stupid of hires with Tottenham too bad to stay up | Barney Ronay The problem here is not the interim manager, it’s the ad hoc interim ownership and the short-term sense of identity at this ghost town club

Magnificently bleak (and also quite funny if you're not a Spurs supporter 😎) column by Barney Ronay on Spurs' travails - makes Hamnet sound like comedy 🎭

Ah, the Daily Mail 🙈 I think the Daily Mash spoof news site sold a T-shirt with 'The Daily Mail: like spending 20 minutes in a mental asylum' on the front.

Might even be worse than the NY Post 😬

Sounds like an updated version of a VHS tape recorder 🤷‍♂️

What is/was Aferian's business, BB? 🙈

Had the same thought! 👍

Definitely worth a read: I knew about America's dire direction of travel but not the UK 😬

Wasn't Harper Adam Adamant or am I mistaken (again!)?

Markwayne. Why not just name your kid Toilet

Didn't realise that 2/3 of dentistry is now private sector, but I'm unsurprised. I'd never take a chance on an NHS dentist tbh

Interesting isn't it? I wonder if everything is SO polarised in the US that, generalising wildly, people think everyone outside of their little purity bubble is either dodgy or outright scummy.

No car chases either, disappointingly 😑

'We're reversing into growth!' 😑

America's Ed Miliband bacon butty moment 🤣

Latest substack on Iran by @snellarthur.bsky.social is a must read

Was he named after the tank? 😑

Straterjee for the terminally stupid, innit 🤷‍♂️

Body Count, except it's measured in schoolgirl fatalities 😡

If you take Chris Spedding's UK novelty hit 'Motorbikin'' you can substitute 'Motorbikin'' with 'Albuquerque' and experience the joy in a whole new way 🫡

This sounds like Afghanistan Northern Alliance 2.0 😬

👇🔥🤣

Maybe not in FP, I think 🤔
