In another entry from the We’re All Doomed Department, a Swedish couple have finally succeeded in their legal campaign for their son to have the crap royally kicked out of him at school to be called Q, overturning two previous rulings by lower courts. Parents of a Jämtland boy learned […]
One in a series of Questions To Which The Answer Is No, but a diverting story for the Brussels chattering classes nevertheless. The President of the Czech Republic, Vaclav Klaus, may apparently face impeachment if he does not sign the EU Constitution Lisbon Treaty according to The Economist’s Charlemagne. (Hat […]
In yet another masterly procurement move, the UK Ministry of Defence has decided to spend hundreds of millions of pounds upgrading and restoring its aged Puma helicopters – which were due to retire next year – for service in Afghanistan. This will cost more than buying a fleet of brand […]
Breaking news from the Land of the Dead Tree Press tonight – the graveyard shift of the newspaper reviews on 24 hour news channels bring us this devastating news for McDoom. Iain Dale MP will be cursing that he has the night off. With the headline “Labour’s Lost It” The Sun says that […]
