My latest in the current Big Issue @bigissue.com. I'd tell you what else is in it, but you know..
Cartoon - At the Bayeux Tapestry exhibition a couple are viewing an older man says to his partner "Ah, now this is the part where Harold is shot in the eye."   Further down the tapestry a younger man shouts " Oh thanks Mate! Spoilers!"

A sticker of Snoopy as the WWI flying Ace (first appearance 1965) appearing on the side of an airplane during an episode of 'Aint Half Hot Mum' set in 1945. All credibility and realism out of the window. Tut.

Neil Kinnock doing Farage's job for him there. 🙄
Neil Kinnock, the former Labour leader and one of three people Burnham has named as his political mentors, has given an interview to la Repubblica, the Italian newspaper. He told it that he believes Burnham does want to, and will, take the UK back into the EU.

Their spokesman says “We'd like a quick word about Cultural Appropriation.”Cartoon - Superman and Krypto the Superdog  fly off into the air. Below them a man on the street walking his dog looks at a bent over lamppost and a puddle.Cartoon – Headline reads ‘Missing Doctor Who episodes found’ A Doctor Who expert asks someone holding a film canister marked ‘Dr Who’ - "Where did you find them?" 
The Archivist says, "Behind the sofa!"
