You're not having a good time at a festival until you're singing the song from the Pepto Bismol advert are you

It says a lot about a politician when 20% of people would rather vote for a bin.
Rod Liddle was a stone-cold arsehole who actually said in a national newspaper that he couldn't be a teacher because he would inevitably try and shag the kids Apparently his editor has said, 'he challenged conventional thinking' If you mean 'was wrong in every conceivable way' then, yes
No idea if connected, but an online shop today was the worst for out of stock food I have ever seen. Having shattered our food security with Brexit, this will make it much worse. Europe is having the same heat problems, but we as a non-member, are way down the priority list now. #UKPol #Brexit
‘Worst we’ve known’: UK turns to imports as drought and heat hit vegetable crops

The only picture ever taken of Concorde flying at Mach 2 (1,350 mph). It was snapped by Adrian Meredith from a RAF Tornado attack fighter while racing a Cessna 172 to New York. Concorde beat the Cessna by 4 minutes, setting a new speed record.
'A Reform UK council leader has threatened to report a café owner to the police after the owner offered free meals to children and publicly criticized the council's decision to stop holiday food vouchers. East Sussex County Council decided not to give out free school holiday meal vouchers.'
Personally I think there are "legitimate questions" about COVID. Like why Michael Gove and Matt Hancock got away with giving away contracts to their mates. And why the fuck Michelle Mone and Doug Barrowman haven't been prosecuted.
Please, do go follow the Cuban Boys, we need a more impressive follower count for our glorious comeback.
This was the X-Posure Daily Hot One on @johnkennedydj.bsky.social's X-Posure Daily on Thursday, and it will be on this weekend's X-Posure shows. Thanks John! @radiox.co.uk
Only Calvin could turn falling off a bike into a full survival story. Didn’t every childhood injury feel life-threatening at the time? #CalvinandHobbes #KidDrama
Not sure who did this but they should be arrested immediately.
Here it is. My manifesto for the 2026 Clacton By-Election. It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Join me, clean up Clacton and let's make 13th August Bin Day! #VoteBinface #VoteyMcVoteface #YesWeTinCan
Fact: Once a plane is raised to 30 metres, our take off crane spins rapidly until it reaches launch velocity. We then cut the rope, saving up to 65% of the fuel normally used in a conventional take off. #Environment
Damn. An American tourist has just sat down at the back of this plane. Delays.

Happy tenth anniversary to the time that the Daily Star thought that the Royal Navy had bought a tiny gun made out of money.
Everyone is saying "Oh we need to cut benefits." Or "We need to cut pensions." Then there will be money. "NO THERE WON'T BE." It just gets stolen for the billionaires. What we need to do is cutoff the billionaires and all their 'profits'. Then there will be loads of money.
What was your beverage of choice at the cinema? Could this advert have swayed your decision? Admit it - you were singing along with this memory jogger! #TalkingPicturesTV
Farewell Bill, most radical of the Goodies. Present at Grosvenor Square with Tariq & Vanessa. Turned his harassment by the Met into slapstick TV comedy for kids. Angry, hairy, furiously talented.
Oh, come on! Start the day with some *spectacular* sweary missives...
In 1675 the Sultan of the Ottoman Empire, sent a letter to the Zaporozhian Cossacks demanding they surrender to him. He got a spectacularly insulting reply. Watch and gurgle with delight as Matt Berry and Peter Capaldi recreate this robust exchange, industrial swearing and all.
This just came up in Facebook memories and I feel it’s one of those ‘every time you see it…’ things
A WOMAN who lives in Dubai thinks she is the best judge of what makes a good British citizen, while her boyfriend avoids tax and is under investigation for dodgy donations. What an absolute joke. Except it's real.
Anyway I met Peter Gabriel at Womad yesterday and he was not only utterly charming but extremely well versed on AI and its place in our present and future. Love this photo that the photographer snapped!
Just a reminder if you are Left Wing you oppose Privatisation, support Nationalisation, you are against Landlordism, you want to tax the rich, you don't want to build more bombs, or support the USA's illegal wars. And you believe in action, not gimmicks.
