Monica Coglan was cross-examined for 13 hours by Archer’s lawyers in the libel trial. She was frequently in tears as her entire life and character was attacked. She died in a car crash before Archer was found guilty of perjury in that trial. Before it was found she’d told the truth all along.

Trump and Netanyahu’s attack on Iran has now cost the world $3 Trillion. For what? So corrupt old white men can stay in power and deflect from their crimes.

it might backfire horribly on him but if so, boy is Andy Burnham going out with a bang. Do wonder if that speech could only have been made by someone who was out of Westminster for the madness years & isn't as scared of the public - he's gambling on them still grudgingly respecting conviction

If Burnham is actually able to carry through everything he promised today and is allowed to build on them (eg eventually nationalise water completely, actually increase the housing stock significantly etc) he could end up being the most consequential PM since Thatcher.

This weekend as part of the 'Cartoonists Club of Great Britain' table I'll be bringing my Big Issue and Private Eye cartoons to the 'Lakes International Comics Art Festival' Comics Market. So that's CCGB at LICAF CM with my PE and BI toons FYI

I'm an exhibitor at the Lakes International Comic Arts Festival LICAF 2-4 October 2026

Cartoon – Batman in his Batcave. We can see in the background his Batcomputer and Batmobile etc. A large group of disgruntled bats stand in front of him. 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!"

I always felt that Michael Kamen's orchestral cues for Highlander were overshadowed by the popm of the Queen songs. They were great, don't get me wrong, but the way Kamen developed those melodies and turned them into sweeping majesty is really something special.

Trump and Republicans are terrified of policies that curb their own wealth and power, and the wealth and power of the oligarchs that bankroll them. That's why they're amping up the fearmongering about "socialism."
