Archer’s resignation from the London mayoral race after it was revealed he lied in court was the thing that got Paul Foot up from his sickbed and contributing again, having first started chronicling Archer’s lies and misdemeanours in 1969. From the Private Eye archive. Issue 992, December 1999.

Local consultations about how to improve the area almost always come back with slowing traffic as an aspiration, so its hardly a vote winner at a local level. Vote for me for faster HGV's through your village

Not been successful for tickets since 2022 - does make for a long winter without the promise of a summer Glastonbury

I hate you two bar Glastonbury ticket site!!!

So that’s why my ticket quest only reached two bars - she was off getting awards rather than cranking up the ticketing website 😊

Has anyone seen more than 2 bars on the Glastonbury ticket sale today? Think I preferred the hammering the refresh button technique of old

A cash-strapped rural police force struggles to deal with Red Diesel gangs. Until its chief inspector realises can get the Met Police to deal with the problem... ...if he pretends they're Iranian. A new six part comedy starring Toby Jones.

To be fair with the price of petrol which of us hasn't thought of getting a white van and a bath and trying to get free fuel from the local RAF base. What could go wrong with that

So the air base incident is just some lads looking for cheap fuel then? Stand down the army

Doesn’t really match Trumps statement that the USA had been tracking the suspects for some time. But Trump is totally unreliable too

I really want to get my hands on an old (1992-ish) Shrewsbury Town shirt, the one with WSJ as the sponsor. It’s the one I always associate with them from when I was a kid, but finding one in my size is apparently impossible.
An old Shrewsbury Town FC shirt.

Hopefully everyone spends all their cash getting Oasis tickets and can’t afford to try for Glasto, leaving me clear to get a ticket!

Top tip. Avoid paying to see Oasis at Knepworth by sticking a record player at the end of your garden and play any Beatles b side instead
