Match of the Day (MOTD), that weekly festival of English Premiership football proceeded this weekend without its anker man (‘w’ omitted by our sensitivity reader) Gary Lineker, and he was joined in his absence by two of the Linekerati: Alan Shearer and Ian Wright. Unsurprisingly the viewing figures have skyrocketed, and the BBC might get […]
Hancockgate is upon us, the Hancock tapes are out, and world champion attention seeker and buttock squeezer Matt Hancock seems not to be enjoying his time in the limelight. Good, he deserves every ounce of opprobrium that is heaped upon him. His attempt to tell his side of the story through the pursed lips of

Since Nicola Sturgeon realised she was surplus to Scottish requirements, Scotland is in the news, for once, for something other than tartan todgers on men pretending to be women. All media attention is now on who is going to replace her as leader of the SNP and by default as First Minister of Scotland. The

We are being subjected to almost saturation coverage of someone who is extremely unimportant and who seems terribly upset because that awful truth has finally dawned on him. We have him on the front pages, the inside pages, the reviews pages, the leaders and op-eds, and even on the letter’s pages. I feel it is

There is no need to turn on the copious comedy channels available on our televisions, the ongoing comedy show that is otherwise described as the United Kingdom knocks them all into a cocked hat. Teachers With nurses, train drivers and university lecturers taking strike action, the teachers’ unions were feeling left out. They too have
