Very nice to hear a sane voice from Piddington. Serious respect to this woman, who is apparently already being othered by more bigoted villagers.

Only the English would reduce the terms hors d’oeuvres or snacks to ‘picky bits’.

On YouTube, Walter Matthau in Hopscotch. At least 4 or 5 laugh out loud lines. All of them throwaway. youtu.be/leHYPgI-9t8?si=K7C9xtFgrRI…

It’s days like these when you can really see how witch-hunts are a fundamental part of the American psyche.

The two Zubaran paintings of Francis of Assisi at the National Gallery are fantastic but the light is so warped the only way you can see them properly is from an angle.

In dealing with the fires, Macron describing the French as people who “se serre les coudes.” In English literally - tighten themselves (together) by the elbows.

This is terrific. Jagger talks wisely and eruditely about matters only he, or someone in his position, can know. A primer for young performers. www.nytimes.com/video/podcasts/1000…

Kinda crazy that Republicans were prepared to accept Trump’s corruption as a price worth paying for being able to ram through their policies. But that’s where we’re at. The US is now a kleptocracy and its people powerless to stop it.

If nothing else Trump’s profiteering shines a light on the corruption at the heart of crypto. Governments and financial regulators take note.

Minimal coverage of this in the UK Media. Not that they should have given oxygen to the batshit speakers, but the financial backers and UK politicians in attendance should be noted. unearthed.greenpeace.org/2026/06/18…

Hell, if the Royals don’t want to live in Buckingham Palace let’s turn it into a permanent museum/gallery of British Royal History. It would make an absolute fortune from tourists and all the money could go towards paying us back the cash we give them.

We need to park our relationship with America until this Trump administration is done. Do as little as we can with them. Tricky but the smart thing to do at this point.

If England make the Final, and of course it’s a big if, every major FA football ground in the country should show the game on huge screens and let everyone watch for free.

When Trump got in a second time, the rest of the world scratched its head and wondered how the hell it could happen. I imagine they’re doing much the same regarding Starmer. But it’s the same reason. Incredibly wealthy people with vested interests.

000

Simon Fellowes @simonfspeak.bsky.social · 22/06/2026

Starmer brought down by a mixture of the Far Left Magic Grandpa Corbynites of his party, the Right Wing Media, and the fear/rise of Reform. Burnham with his further left of centre position will get battered by the Establishment. Ugly times ahead.

Roy’s getting grumpy and we haven’t even got out of the group stage. 😂 #ITV

Simon Fellowes @simonfspeak.bsky.social · 21/06/2026

The juvenile frisson that comes with a change of leader could well be diminished if Starmer does insist on an orderly handover waiting until September. Three months of the Right Wing Media bashing Burnham could result in a very different mood and landscape.

Simon Fellowes @simonfspeak.bsky.social · 21/06/2026

I think the word ‘schvitzing’ is going to get a lot of action over the next few days.

Simon Fellowes @simonfspeak.bsky.social · 20/06/2026

Starmer clearly playing for time. If Farage does step down then the threat of Reform is gone. The Tories are a non event, and the Green/Lib Dem coalition eminently handleable.

I’ll be glad when we one day look back and say to ourselves, what on earth were we thinking, going to see bands play in football stadiums.

Had MI6 paid a couple of thugs to firebomb Putin’s Moscow residence imagine the uproar. Same thing happens to the UK PM and only a collective shrug both by the Establishment and the Media. What gives?

Justin Webb calling Reform ‘centre right’. Christ the window has moved at the #BBC. Reform are the National Front. @BBCr4today

Simon Fellowes @simonfspeak.bsky.social · 19/06/2026

I’ve always been a firm supporter of the measured, technocratic and cool headed Keir Starmer, but if Burnham can decimate and eventually destroy Reform and their ignorant xenophobic band of followers, I say bring him on.

Simon Fellowes @simonfspeak.bsky.social · 18/06/2026

Yes, it makes sense that England play to their strengths - 'organized chaos' - and in the Prem that can work. But against a sophisticated and skillful, let alone a defensively tough side, usually it's not enough. The French for one should be a concern.

Looking forward tonight to English fans booing Trump, FIFA, Infantino, hydration breaks, and basically lowering the tone of this over-commercialised ‘carnival of football’, albeit with their traditionally raucous and irrepressible sense of humour. Flares up the bum anyone?

Simon Fellowes @simonfspeak.bsky.social · 15/06/2026

Mark Chapman is perfectly adequate for 5Live and Match of the Day, but for anything international, especially the World Cup, no one is as good as Lineker. The BBC were mad to let him go. What’s more there’s no one on the horizon.

Simon Fellowes @simonfspeak.bsky.social · 15/06/2026

The Right Wing shits itself over the Social Media ban, immediately links it to Digital ID. Anything that challenges their ability to anonymously spew hate for money they’re bound to dislike.
