Belgium recognises Palestine and sanctions Israel. Any second now Netanyahu will pop up with the usual script Belgium is a Twat, Hamas lovers, traitors to civilisation. Countdown to outrage: 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
This is a satirical account. Because satire is rage wrapped in wit. It’s protest with punchlines. It’s how we laugh at power and strip it bare. In an age of spin, mockery is truth. Satire is raging against the machine

We are all patriots now ..Hoorah!
Instead of pandering to Reform, GB News, the Mail, Telegraph & The Sun, Labour should be running daily fact check briefings like the COVID updates. Less graphs, more bullshit clearing. Stick it on Love Island if you want people to actually watch.

So dangerous, so dangerous. And they can live to be 85 years old. Notice the language here it’s not about care or treatment, it’s about fear and othering. When you strip people of humanity, you can justify anything. It’s all a bit Nazi, don’t ya think.
My point still stands .
As previously stated, “War isn’t the only thing that forces people to flee. In Pakistan, Iran and Afghanistan people face religious persecution, political oppression, famine, drought, and violence from groups like the Taliban. You don’t need a declared war to live in fear or to have no future.”
It’s true, not everyone is fleeing war. Some are escaping persecution, famine, or places where life has simply become impossible. It doesn’t fit neatly into a box but does that mean we stop showing empathy?
Trump: “I’ve just heard a beautiful new word , Cockwomble. People come up to me, tears in their eyes, strong men, tough men, saying, ‘Sir, you are the greatest Cockwomble we’ve ever seen.’ Nobody’s ever been called a Cockwomble like me. Tremendous honour.”
Imagine fleeing war, only to meet a border that trades safety for state-sanctioned loneliness. Welcome to Britain 2025.
"Kemi Badenoch once claimed migrants lurk in bushes. Now it turns out her Stanford medical school offer was also hiding there. Relatively speaking not the worst lie she’s told, but worth remembering."
Ah yes, the “just concerned citizens” at Canary Wharf. Waving flags, shouting bile, then allegedly punching a police officer. Nothing says community spirit like turning a protest into a brawl and proving the only threat to public safety came from the mob itself.
Yes , the Cracker heads are on the rise here I think the same forces are at play on both sides of the Atlantic.
“Oh do fuck off, Richard. You don’t get to wreck lives, rip up rights, and then tell the Archbishop to pipe down. If anyone needs a sermon, it’s you.”
I’m beginning to think Labour doesn’t represent me any more. Maybe it’s the purging of the left. Maybe it’s the disability cuts. Maybe it’s the pandering to racists. Maybe it’s silencing pro-Palestinian voices. Maybe it’s the silence over the genocide in Gaza. Can’t quite put my finger on it.
Breaking: asylum seekers banned from buying toys, flowers and paying library fines. At last, Britain is safe from the menace of teddy bears, bouquets and overdue copies of Harry Potter. World beating government priorities, right there.
Tory Brexit created the English media’s small boats ‘crisis’ (it’s 0.05% of our population FFS). To cater for these asylum seekers, the Tories got their hotel chain owning mates to house them at a considerable profit margin (every ‘crisis’ a money spinner). Labour has to clear up their two messes.
After another day of Shitfuckery, take five minutes to breathe. Ren & Chinchilla ,Chalk Outlines. Haunting. Honest. Beautiful. Let the world fall away for a while.
When the KKK Came to D.C. - The Atlantic share.google/o9d1aIxsmZlF...
Words would just spoil it.
There’s a Nina Simone performance of Sinnerman spliced with footage of the KKK and fascism rising. Different era but watch it now and it feels like a live stream of Trump’s America in 2025. Same poison, same flames.
There was a time I thought personal insults were beneath politics. Then came this era of grifters, bigots and Fascists calling themselves leaders. These days? I’m absolutely here for it. Some people don’t deserve polite debate they deserve to be called out for what they are.

Reform set up shop next to a Turkish barber that’s served the town for 15 years. Within weeks, the barber’s windows get smashed. Must be that famous Reform “community spirit” we keep hearing about.
100 days of Reform councils. What’s the grand vision? Ban Pride flags. Ban Ukraine flags. Wave nylon crosses off lampposts. Slash SEND budgets, botch “doge units”, lose councillors faster than bin collections. Who knew running things was harder than shouting on GB News?
It’s now abundantly clear this administration wants to burn everything to the ground. Every day brings fresh fuckshittery. How did America get here and what happened to the guardrails?
Trump has revoked Kamala Harris’s Secret Service protection ,not out of policy, but pure spite. A fragile, vindictive, pathetic piece of shit playing politics with someone’s safety. This isn’t strength, it’s weakness wrapped in malice. Utter Cockwomble.
Agreed 💯 That's the only way things will change.
Call it what it is: the Faragification of the UK media. One man, one pint, one endless whinge platformed on repeat until his bile becomes “common sense.” Journalism didn’t die, it just sold him another round.
“The only way this stops is if people en masse refuse to pay the licence. The BBC’s bias has gone so far that the idea of impartiality is now a bad joke.”
Radio 4: Are asylum seekers the biggest issue in Britain? Also Radio 4: Here’s Farage, on again, just in case you forgot he exists. We’ll keep handing him the mic until you’re convinced asylum seekers are personally hiding under your bed. Journalism, apparently.”

Where We Are Now Thirty years later, Britain is: Angrier More divided Distracted from real crises What began as a joke about political correctness has mutated into a multi‑billion‑pound grievance industry. Different slogans. Same resentment.
The Anti‑Woke Era (2020s) Enter the “war on woke”: GB News launches Right-wing think tanks fuel outrage Ministers lean on “free speech under attack” narratives Government bills stoke culture war battles Meanwhile, the NHS struggles, buried under endless “snowflake” headlines.
Post-Brexit Fallout (2016–2020) The promised “sunlit uplands” never arrived. Instead: Economic slowdown Political chaos Tabloid-driven culture wars Statues, migrants, and flags dominated headlines anything but the consequences of Brexit.
Brexit 2016 23 June 2016: The Brexit referendum. 51.9% vote Leave. Slogans ruled the day: “Take Back Control” “We Want Our Country Back” A mythical past Britain was sold, one where “real people” had power. Divisions deepened overnight.
Farage & Foundations (2000s) By the 2000s, resentment politics was thriving: Inequality widened under successive governments Immigration became a lightning rod Nigel Farage and UKIP rode a wave of EU scepticism, railing against multiculturalism The groundwork for Brexit was being laid.
The Tabloid Era (1990s) UK tabloids weaponised “political correctness gone mad” into a full-blown moral panic industry: “You can’t say Christmas” “You can’t fly the flag” “You can’t call it a blackboard” It worked. The idea that “ordinary people” were under attack by liberal elites took root.
The Origins (1980s) In the UK, “political correctness” started as an in joke borrowed from the US. It was ironic, self mocking, and mostly confined to campuses and broadsheets. Then the tabloids spotted an opportunity
The Evolution of UK Grievance Politics Britain” in under 30 years, here’s how UK grievance politics evolved into a permanent culture war machine.
“Clowns at the Wheel” "Not to pile on the bad news, but…" A critical ocean current is on track to fail, triggering climate chaos across Europe. The solution? Rapid cuts to fossil fuels. Our leaders’ plan? “Drill, baby, drill.” Civilisation’s steering into a storm and the clowns are driving.
We have no idea what, don’t really understand why, but we’ve consulted the opinion polls and something must be done.
Liz Truss crashed the pound, spooked the markets, wrecked pensions, and was evicted from Downing Street in 49 days. Now she’s touring the media warning of an “economic doom loop” and backing Trump’s attack on central banks. The arsonist is applying to be chief firefighter
Angela Rayner, a working‑class northern woman, buys a flat: “SCANDAL! NATIONAL OUTRAGE! UNFIT FOR OFFICE!” Nigel Farage owns FOUR homes, two tucked in a company: “Shrewd businessman. Nothing to see here.” Same media. Different class.
exactly, but the grim truth is the Heritage Foundation and similar groups have been bankrolling far right politics for years, alongside Russian propaganda. And with the Overton window in the UK and Europe dragged so far right already, I fear the damage is well underway.
So the big scary “Labour landlord tax” is coming. Spoiler: landlords will just hike rents and pass it on. Smoke, mirrors, and another trick where the rich pretend they’re punished while ordinary tenants pick up the bill.
Trump isn’t just hinting at a third term, he’s measuring the Oval Office curtains for a Mar-a-Lago makeover. $200m ballroom, gold trim, chandeliers you can see from space. FDR gave breadlines, Trump gives conga lines. The 22nd Amendment? Just “fake news” furniture to move out the way.
“I really do appreciate the engagement here, but just a reminder a rhetorical question is often part of the satire. I’m not actually looking for the obvious answer, I’m highlighting the absurdity. That’s the whole point of this account.”
Reform UK: self styled defenders of “free speech" Unless it’s the local press asking questions. Then it’s bans, blacklists and toddler tantrums. Nottingham Post exposed them, and now they’re hiding under the table with their crayons. Fragile egos in Union Jack ties.
And the big finish: Jim Davidson’s Last Laugh ,one tired gag from 1983, one sad pint of bitter, one broken mirror for an audience. That’s GammonVision: stuck in the past, terrified of the present, no plan for the future.
Saturday primetime: Strictly No Diversity ,waltzing to the sound of muttering about quinoa, judges deduct points if you recycle. Then MasterRaceChef, the only show where every dish is boiled meat, white bread, and a side order of muttered xenophobia.
Also airing: The Great British Moan Off ,a tent full of red-faced men furious about oat milk, wind turbines and pronouns. And Celebrity Border Patrol , Nigel Farage in a dinghy chasing swans he swears are “illegals.” No prizes, just a sense of grievance.
Coming soon on GammonVision the TV channel for the terminally outraged. Tonight: Patriots’ Question Time no questions allowed, just furious nodding and shouting “send them back.” Think Question Time but with even fewer facts and an even louder volume knob.
Or flag shaggers, whichever stings more. There’s no point trying to have a civilised debate with people whose politics are built on bile. The most effective response is mockery laugh at them until the fury looks as small as it really is.
Every now and then you need a break from the endless shitfuckery. Trust me you need a version of Bette Smith singing Dance Monkey in your life. Here it is.
Exactly. They wave flags and shout about “taking back control” while the super rich drive the narrative. And the thing is it’s working perfectly. See clip below. youtube.com/clip/UgkxBR6...
“We want our country back.” Back from who, exactly? The nurses? The bin men? The Deliveroo rider who got your kebab here in 12 minutes? You don’t want it back you just want it smaller, whiter, and easier to shout at.
“Patriots.” The blokes who think bravery is screaming at hotel windows and stapling flags to lampposts. Less Churchill, more tantrum at Sports Direct.
Radio 4 calls it “balance,” but giving Reform UK endless airtime isn’t journalism, it’s amplification. The BBC isn’t holding them to account, it’s polishing the megaphone while the far right shouts through it. Who’s making these editorial decisions?
Trump says he’d “like to be asked” before sending troops into blue cities. Like a mafia boss waiting for you to invite him to smash your shop windows polite tyranny with a side of delusion.
“Exactly. They’ve been flogging the same empty symbolism for centuries wrapping decay in a flag and calling it strength. Different countries, same grift.”
“The so-called ‘patriots’ yelling under a flag are never strong. They’re weak, insecure little men terrified of the world, shouting at shadows, mistaking volume for courage and a bit of cloth for a spine.”
Farage has spent years whipping up hate, now he’s flogging the “solution” torch human rights and deport Britain back to the 1930s. The arsonist selling fire extinguishers, except he’s also the fire. A grifting little goblin of spite.
Don't forget we're protecting our kids.
I read a story last week that someone had been going round removing the flags from lamp posts, then putting them on Facebook marketplace selling their own flags back to them . Don't know how true that was but love the idea of it .
It's really infuriating, I know Preston well and it has always been a multicultural city with a couple of Caribbean festivals every year.

This is the Level 👇 youtube.com/clip/UgkxBR6...
Imagine thinking Britain’s greatness hangs on how many flags you can strap to a lamppost with Poundland cable ties. The only thing these flag shaggers are defending is their right to look ridiculous.
Just one day. One single day without this Cockwomble and his endless shitfuckery. Is that too much to ask?
Want to know how you turn a superpower into a pariah state? Watch Trump. He mocks Ramaphosa, bullies Zelenskyy, patronises Starmer, insults South Korea, and sneers at Europe. All bluster, no strategy just a trail of wrecked alliances.
Trump moves to criminalise flag burning, trying to rewrite the Constitution to protect cloth. What is it about these people and their flags? Whether it’s MAGA or UK flag shaggers, authoritarianism always hides behind a bit of stitched fabric.
I don't even think it's that complicated they just hate brown people.
If only that were true , they can't even get that right..
When America sneezes, the world catches a cold. Normally it takes a couple of years to spread. With Trump, the far right flu is already raging here.
“Chelsea lift the Club World Cup… except the real trophy’s in Trump’s Oval Office, and they get a replica. If this is how America ‘hosts’ football, what happens when the World Cup lands? Is he going for the set, trophies, tournaments, and the rulebook?”
Imagine the world’s most multicultural event colliding with the world’s most anti-multicultural president. Football unites. Trump divides. And yet, here we are,World Cup 2026, brought to you by xenophobia.
This account exists to mock the bastards with satire and snark. But lately the news has been so bleak it’s felt like trying to parody a funeral. Even I can’t out clown reality some days. I’ll sleep on it, recharge the rage batteries, and be back tomorrow swinging.
Wankpuffin .. Amazing!
So sorry America. None of this is on those who didn’t vote Trump. But when border agents brag about detaining people for tweets when academics delete apps to cross a line, when visiting relatives feels like a crime scene I fear this is just the start. Authoritarianism always begins at the checkpoint
I remember the 1980's when groups like the National Front & Combat 18 were violent racist thugs on the fringe. Now in 2025 the same bile is mainstream, dressed up in St George’s flags & cheered on by politicians. What was once shameful is now “acceptable” Britain.
This week’s “masterstroke” from the far right: plaster the country in St George’s crosses. Because nothing says serious politics like flag shaggers thinking hanging a bit of nylon off a lamppost will solve housing, NHS, or wages. Cosplay patriotism at its finest.
Starmer’s purge of the left was the canary in the coal mine. Today he echoes Powell lite lines about an “island of strangers.” The real danger isn’t Reform gaining ground it’s Labour dragging the centre with them.
Refugees “lurking in bushes watching women and children” that’s the vile dog whistle Kemi Badenoch served up. Not serious politics, just cheap scaremongering to thrill racists. Britain deserves better than hedge-based horror stories from would be prime ministers.
The greatest trick the political class pulled was to make immigration a huge issue. Poor people shouting at other poor people whilst those at the top shit themselves laughing.
It’s all so fucking depressing Britain 2025 “patriots” in hi-vis, screaming outside refugee charities, terrifying staff so badly they build safe rooms. Imagine thinking you’re Churchill, when really you’re just a yob bullying food banks. That’s not patriotism. It’s cosplay fascism.
Trump knows more about grass than any human alive. Just like he knows more about ISIS than the generals, more about COVID than the scientists, and more about everything than everyone. The only thing he’s ever actually mastered is bullshit.
The BBC’s logic is flawless: keep platforming Farage at every turn, just in case Reform take power and get angry about not being platformed. It’s like feeding the wolf at your door so it doesn’t bite you, then acting surprised when it grows big enough to eat the house.
Ben Harper’s Excuse Me Mr. (1995) is a quiet but cutting protest. Beneath its smooth groove lies frustration—calling out injustice, political failures, and the ones in power who look the other way. #BornUnderABluesky #BenHarper #ExcuseMeMr #BluesProtest
Otis Rush’s Working Man (1976) is the blues of the working class—long hours, low pay, and no way out. A powerful, slow-burning cry for dignity, respect, and a fair shot at life. #BornUnderABluesky #OtisRush #WorkingMan #BluesProtest
Howlin’ Wolf’s Evil (1954) is more than just a riff—it’s a warning. Growling vocals, hypnotic groove, and a message about power, corruption, and the darkness lurking beneath the surface. The blues doesn’t lie. #BornUnderABluesky #HowlinWolf #Evil #BluesProtest
Luther Allison’s Pain in the Streets (1995) is the blues at its most urgent—gritty, emotional, and unflinching. A raw take on injustice, struggle, and the fight for something better. The truth, straight from the heart. #BornUnderABluesky #LutherAllison #PainInTheStreets #BluesProtest
Eric Bibb’s Needed Time (2017) is a blues prayer—waiting for justice, for healing, for a better day. A song of quiet strength and perseverance, reminding us that change takes time, but the fight never stops. #BornUnderABluesky #EricBibb #NeededTime #BluesProtest
Tinsley Ellis’s Speak No Evil (2009) takes aim at corruption and dishonesty in power. A fiery blues-rock track with searing guitar and a message that cuts through the noise—some truths can’t be ignored. #BornUnderABluesky #TinsleyEllis #SpeakNoEvil #BluesProtest
Benjamin Booker’s Witness (2017) is a raw, urgent cry against racial injustice. Gritty vocals, fuzzed-out guitars, and gospel influences turn this into a modern blues protest anthem that refuses to be ignored. #BornUnderABluesky #BenjaminBooker #Witness #BluesProtest
That’s a Wrap on Blues of Protest That’s your lot for this theme of Blues of Protest—music that speaks truth, fights back, and refuses to be silenced. Check out my accompanying radio show, where you can hear all today’s tracks in glorious lossless quality: www.mixcloud.com/Bluesgit/bor...
Ray Bradbury (Fahrenheit 451) “You don’t have to burn books to destroy a culture. Just get people to stop reading them.”
I used to think right-wing politics was just another point of view. Strange, but still part of the mix. Now it’s laid bare: Trump’s America, the far-right rising in Europe and the UK. How the fuck do people support this? How is a brain wired to thrive on hate, division and ignorance?
Social media lies. Racist dog-whistles. A family torn apart for daring to exist in a park. And at the centre of the carnival of poison? Tommy Robinson professional victim, career thug, massive cunt.
