Boosting the brand
Collector’s items for the future? President Thump is putting his mug on the inside cover of a limited edition of US passports to mark the 250th anniversary of the end of their first civil war.
● Non-Trumpists can still go for normal passports with a picture of a US landmark.
Even more relief
Esso petrol is still 151.9p/litre locally but diesel has dropped to a mere 167.9p/litre. Cue the Iran war hotting up again?
Explosive answer
Recalling a Star Trek episode in which some possessed crew member was singing Danny Boy incessantly over the ship’s broadcast system, I was ready to chuck a grenade at the mock Irish blokes singing it in an episode of Murder, She Wrote.
Devious & Sly
O’besity is not your fault, the website was telling me as I was still thinking about a short story about the government taking over the bodies of their customers and putting them to work whilst they were asleep.

Wouldn’t put it past the Labour lot.
Not much cop
How effective is Australia;s ban on access to anti-social meeja by under 16s? A survey has found that 90% of kids are still getting to banned sites. So much for the Bier Smarmer U-turn from ban to no ban? Or was it the other way round?
Going for something that works?
Some EFU countries are working at exporting illegals to Rwanda. And reminding us what idiots our Labour lot were to blow £800 million of taxpayers’ money on cancelling the Tory Rwanda plan.
