That immoral diesel deal Trump has struck with Russia. Let's say a total of 5 million tonnes, perhaps? The USA burns half a million tonnes of diesel a day. So that's ten days supply sorted out, at an immeasurable cost to the reputation of America and to the security of the world. <slow handclap>

I do not as a rule gamble. I have nothing against it as a gentle, low-stake pastime, but I've been inside enough online gambling firms to know the huge resources they bring to bear to set the odds so that they win. But I noticed Count Binface at 16/1 on Bet365 and couldn't resist £20, just for fun.

Found myself in Aldershot on Monday, just passing through. This is flag-shagger central, Union flags hanging from every lamp-post. These are the cheapest flags available, and no-one is looking after them, so the whole lot now look dirty, ragged, and generally wretched. Interesting metaphor, really.

I don't want to appear self-centred here, Americans who voted anything except Republican have my utmost sympathy, but could I ask for you guys to hurry up the societal collapse a little? We here in the UK need you to demonstrate the folly of far-right wingnut votes before our next General Election.

I am puzzled. I see lots of news coverage, learned academics & politicians debating tiny details of who did what to whom in the Middle East. Lots of talk about how we could end the conflict now. Not one of these learned people has raised the subject of reducing our reliance on oil and gas. Why not?

Incautious enough to state an opinion on Trump's net worth? He'll sue you for defamation. Claim that his election campaign was based on a "Big Lie" tactic? See you in court. Call him a paedophile who raped children? Absolute crickets. What is it about the Discovery phase that scares him, I wonder?

It's interesting to note that in all the noise around the Gorton & Denton result, nobody has yet mentioned that the Tory vote was the same order of magnitude as the Monster Raving Loony Party vote, both in the hundreds of votes. I mean, I know it's not a big target for them, but that's gotta sting.

Ah. Alternative theory (yeah, I know...) on the El Paso shutdown: DOD tells FAA there will be additional traffic around Biggs for a few days. FAA sees excellent opportunity to put the boot into Trump, asks for safety guarantees, closes airspace when they can't or won't be given. If so, well played!

I see refurbishing Parliament is budgeted at up to £40billion. Here's an idea - flog the buildings off to a hotel chain or something, and build a purpose-built new Parliament in the Midlands somewhere. That'd cost way less, and cause multiple head explosions among the flagshaggers as an added bonus.

If I were writing a micro-blogging site in the modern era, I'd use a message limit of something like 1,000 characters (probably 1,024, because I'm an old-school metal-basher). 300 characters is too short, and serves no real purpose at all, resulting in thoughts being chopped short.
