Captain Sir Tom Moore RiP

I'm certainly going to do a few turns round the garden, but in the opposite direction. In League With Satan.

(I'm lefthanded so I'm constantly In League With Satan...)

I think the important question is DID STARMER CLAP?

He was unavailble to clap because Johnson deliberately scheduled this clap to coincide with Starmers operation to have his hands replaced with flags.

 

[Petcha]

These people wanting a state funeral for him, I wonder if they’ve considered what he would have wanted, or what his family want. They should be allowed to grieve their way, not how some others want.

Based on what I've observed, his family would lap a state funeral up

Blimey, Priti Patel has gone all in on him

Priti Patel slams influencers ‘showing off’ trips on social media

‘People should simply not be travelling,’ says home secretary

So sad that a British Home Secretary would attack our war dead like this.

What's next: 'Into the valley of death road the six hundred... who were charged £800 and warned that future breaches might land them in a cell next to the jet ski bloke'.

We’ve gone full Brasseye:

Some people will do anything for a holiday in Barbados and the promise of a statue when they die

he’s just working off the debt for the suit

how many mountains need climbing and oceans need single handedly rowed across before disabled squaddies realise the government doesn’t give a flying fuck about them

Pffftt, if this was TopTips they'd be cutting out photos of Sir Tom, covering them in sellotape and sticking them on plastic yoghurt tops. Just as good and half the price of shop bought!!

Fake it on a slice and go to the press claiming you've been visited by his ghost - you'll be laughed at make a fortune.

Slightly ironic that 'Rachel Maclean MP #stay at home' wants a statue in honour of a bloke who nipped off to Barbados in December'.

 

[Mrs Miggins]

Well this has taken a distinctly weird turn hasn't it? That t-shirt. What the fuck is that?

Commemorative plates!! I want commemorative plates!!

Satire has died, been buried, dug up again, put on display in a museum, then reinterred by its people in a solemn ceremony that itself resembles a parody.

I'm never entirely convinced by that common view regarding the death of satire. I tend to think it was always this way, the establishment has been just as absurd as its parodies for a very long time and I think that was always part of what made the satire work and ring true to people.
