My teacher brother has just informed me that his primary school kids now refer to anything shit or old fashioned as "Brexit". Which has made my morning.

Why do arseholes always think if the Allies hadn't defeated Hitler we'd all be speaking German?
Did any of the countries Germany occupied take German as their first language?
Did the defeated Axis powers end up speaking English?
Tucker: “I never understood why 🇬🇧 fought World War 2?” 😕

Rees-Mogg: “It was good vs. evil…We did the right thing…”

Tucker: “Has 🇬🇧 benefitted?”

RM: “We defeated Hitler… We’d all be speaking German…”

Tucker: “Who cares?” 🤔

For any other person this would've been a career destroyer. For the Trump crime family, it's just water off a duck's back.

Your regular reminder: If the Russians stop fighting, the war ends. If the Ukrainians stop fighting, their land will be occupied, their leaders will be killed, their history and language will be erased, their children will be kidnapped to serve Russia.

On this Breakaway day, our thoughts are with Commander John Koenig's teams on Moonbase Alpha.

Today marks 27 years since the Moon left Earth's orbit, taking with it the last of the Eagles that hadn't yet exploded…

It was Gerry and Sylvia Anderson's Space: 1999 (1975-1977).

Name a film you've seen 10+ times.

There are many, and some of them are very obvious. But I'm going with this one because it's a hugely underrated musical but never leaves my top 5:
It's Always Fair Weather.

I didn't even know this was an actual thing. I heard rumblings of a movie when the final series ended but didn't think it would actually happen. Really looking forward to this 🤗

Orange flour on 5000-year-old Stone Henge? GET EM, FULL FORCE OF THE LAW, FUCK EM UP, SIR KEIR! Climate change activists planning a sit down on a road? JAIL EM BEFORE THE CUNTS GET THE CHANCE! Balaclava Boys going down Dover to block the Ports? JUST A TOP BUNCH OF LADS.
PM's office today have tacitly agreed with Kent Police's assessment that the blocking of Dover Port was a "lawful protest".

There's currently no real pressure from anyone in govt, opposition parties or media to arrest masked thugs and their organisers from breaching the peace, disruption etc

@strangenewpod.com not sure if you guys picked up on Scotty's joke in the turbolift last week. Martin Quinn was often in a Scottish comedy sketch show called Burnistoun, and this is one of their most well-known sketches (sadly, no Martin Quinn actually in this one):

Without saying your age, what's your favourite movie that came out when you were 20 years old?

It’s a point that has been made before: These people are here without authorization only because the administration revoked it.

It is as if Trump were somehow to strip citizenship from every Democrat.
These people had protected status. They lived here legally. They worked, they paid taxes. They made lives. Raised families.

Now we’ve dehumanized them. Ripped away that protection and told them to get out.

This is a stain on the soul of this Nation.
