Tony Blair, the megalomaniacs’ megalomaniac, hangs like a spectre over the Labour Party. Precisely how much influence he wields over the government is uncertain, although Keir Starmer recently confessed the pair spoke “a lot” in the run up to the election, and that he “regularly receives texts” from Blair, advising him on what he needs […]

On Saturday evening during a campaign rally in Pennsylvania, former US President Donald Trump survived an assassination attempt by the narrowest of close shaves. He was shot in the upper ear by 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks, who managed to fire eight rounds from an AR-15 rifle before being killed himself by a Secret Service sniper.

This week saw the opening of Parliament, and the swearing in of MPs old and new. Freshly-appointed Minister for Jihad, Naz Shah, pledged her allegiance to King Charles III (peas be upon him) via the Koran. Clive Lewis, Minster for Arseholes, whined that the nod to the Monarchy really went against his principles, but not

I am most grateful to all the fans of The Frank Report, who have written in to demand its reinstatement. Please understand that while I do my best, I am beset from all sides by unruly children, distempered dogs, disobliging fishwives – and that’s just the newly-assembled Starmer Cabinet! That said, we’re all here now

If it were, one could sidestep debate entirely by identifying the ultimate victim status and taking umbrage accordingly. Increasingly devoid of argument, the Critical

Ladies and gentlemen, the hour has come. After an interminable four-week general election campaign, mercifully spirited by the 100% proof charisma of Nigel Farage and the increasingly erratic behaviour of Sir Ed Davey (whose suicidal attempts to relieve himself of the Liberal Democrat leadership have been cruelly mistaken for bungee jumps), we have arrived at

Dear readers, it’s been a while, but with the general election just 10 days away we thought it was time The Frank Report made a Farage-esque comeback. And thank Christ for Nigel, without whose participation this election campaign would have remained the dullest since John Prescott tried convincing would-be voters by punching them in the

I humbly suggest the rest of you ought to be concerned too. Granted, Magic Grandpa was more lunatic than maverick,

The stark divide between genuine inequality and that which the grievance industry claims to be fighting, is now at comedic proportions. ‘I was the first Muslim leader of a western democracy, and I say Islamophobia has poisoned our politics’ Humza Yousaf told us earlier this week, without a trace of irony. That’s right Humza baby!

An enduring truth of the horrors of war, is that those who survive them rarely speak thereof. It’s always those who managed to avoid combat that love to regale strangers with tall tales. The same, I believe, goes for the experience of genuine hardship. Those who escape abject poverty have scant reason to relive the
