I'm very proud of this book. Disgustingly so. And you should be proud of it too. It'll be the best Christmas gift you ever gave the dog lover in your life. They'll love you for it, and call you on Boxing Day to tell you how much Chapter 6 made them puke. www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0HF8SR6JR

Well, Nigel is lying. The teachers are hand in hand with the students who are blocking their lycée because they have : no teachers, no chairs, no toilets in some, no nurse. Nothing to do with the Left..Just kids wanting what they should have. On the other hand the police have been monsters.

On Fairford a thought just crossed my mind about the 5 suspects. Mango Mussolini on Sunday said “We had them under view for a long time, and we got them.” Ex-fucking-scuse me?! Does that mean UK Nationals are subject to US surveillance? Or was he, as usual, lying through his cheap veneers?

This artwork was created over the past year by a local Birmingham artist collective who wanted to bring unty from discord by repurposing the divisive Nationalist flags into a massive Brummie Reunion Jack. Suffice it to say, the inspiration for Goldship's magnificent work has not taken it well.

I missed this brilliant thread when Ruth first posted it. It’s a superb polemic detailing the brutal impact of the hostile environment inflicted by the UK govt on people coming to the UK or simply returning home. Please think about it whenever you hear a politician talk about “legitimate concerns”.

You probably already know this — because the demands of capitalism and the cost of dog food means I have to keep banging on about it — but I've got a book out on Monday. Early readers have been extremely nice about it. Which is frankly a relief, because it’s a bit late to rewrite the bastard now.

Christmas solved! If you know anyone who likes to laugh, this is the gift.
The brilliant Russell Jones has taken one of the country's most beloved obsessions and explained it - hilariously.
Why does your dog argue with the wind? How can a chihuahua and a Great Dane be the same species? (Hint: human input, wise or otherwise.)
I already knew I loved the author from his Tory trilogy, but I never knew I could be so fascinated by a branch of evolution; I didn't even need the regular base-touches with Jones's lunatic Baxter to keep me reading.
Baxter, like many dogs and all spaniels, is clearly a nightmare as well as a delight; you will fall in love with him from the illustrations alone.
'Dogs can detect cancer, guide a blind person safely through a city, find a lost child, pull a drowning sailor from the sea, or control several hundred sheep with nothing more than a change of posture. Others get their heads trapped in buckets or can easily be mistaken for disgruntled footstools.'
If you like Bill Bryson, read Jones. And get a copy for everyone in your life who has ever known, or laughed/wondered at, a dog.
