At no point during the five-year span that Monty Python's Flying Circus aired on the BBC, from October 1969 to December 1974, could the greatest comedic minds of their time come up with a skit more grotesquely absurd than Trump placing a fake peace-prize medal over his own head.

Men tend to choose higher paying careers like doctor, engineer, lawyer, or CEO.

While women tend to choose lower paying careers like female doctor, female engineer, female lawyer, or female CEO.

So Farage dreamt up a conspiracy theory that turns out to be BS. All very Trumpian

[The Economist @TheEconomist]

Artists who repudiate support from the likes of Baillie Gifford are naive about power and childish about morality. More than that, if it’s purity they covet, they are in the wrong business https://t.co/imXsZ42N2Q 👇

Boris Johnson has defended Chris Phips Rwanda-Congo confusion. He told The Sun: "They're next to each other. Some people confuse Holland with the Netherlands. It's easy to do. What matters is they're both good decent countries where we can safely send illegal boat people."

A Trump supporter was seated next to an older woman on an airplane and he turned to her and said, “Do you want to talk? Flights go quicker if you strike up a conversation with your fellow passenger.”

The old woman, who had just started to read her book, replied to the total stranger:

“What would you want to talk about?”

“Oh, I don’t know,” said the man. “How about how they stole the election in 2020 and Donald Trump should be president.”

“Okay,” she said. “Those could be interesting topics but let me ask you a question first. A horse, a cow, and a deer all eat the same stuff – grass. Yet a deer excretes little pellets, while a cow turns out a flat patty, but a horse produces clumps. Why do you suppose that is?”

The man, visibly surprised by the old woman’s, thinks about it and says, “Hmmm, I have no idea.”

To which the old woman replies, “Do you really feel qualified to discuss politics, when you don’t know shit?”

@NUJofficial @nipsweetie Greetings. For too long the owners of our media have been stealing the profits, often multiple x those of ANY other industry sector.
I worked, (first started with hot metal in the 1970’s) within what might be determined local/regional/national press.This is now at breaking point
