Or, adjusted for accuracy ..  Top of the range .. but clearly collossally underpriced since the sale is oversubscribed by a factor of 7, so the cretinous fuckers aren't only selling the family silver, they're not even getting a good price for it.

The last two weeks of IF... Last weeks one on the Tory Conference:     This weeks on the Daily Mail* being complete shits about Ed Milliband's dad**. *Who were pretty much a nazi paper and the owner at the time [still in the family!] was friends with Hitler, Goebbels etc, hurrar for the black shirts etc. The list of poo poo is too long. **Who was a Belgian born Jew [parents were Polish jews and his wife was a Polish jew] who fleed to Britain from the Nazis and fought for Britain [also a socialist].     Wikipedia isn't the best links to use because Daily Mail edits them up all the time but its general knowledge anyway. Long story short on this story: Daily Mail did articles for a handful of days saying how Ed Milliband's dad hated Britain because of something he thought in his diary when he was 17 (this was before he fought for Britain in world war 2). Photoshopped A GRAVE MISTAKE on his grave and other tasteless poo poo. Dailymail got massive blowback but refuse to say sorry for the main message, when on Newsnight they wanted to talk to them about Daily Mail supporting the nazis and such then having them "you're going back 80 years! that's unfair!" before having Newsnight point out thats what they did with Ed Milliband's dad. And when you want to compare dads, the Daily Mail is up in the poo poo list. Anyway Daily Mail got called Anti-Semitic and then the Daily Mail started  WE DEMAND AN APOLOGY . I don't know if anything new has happened lately, or if I've missed any massive detail been out the loop last couple of days really.Also: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2RrjyHlbZck Edit: Oh yeah I forgot the Daily Mail journalist gatecrashing Ed Milliband's dead uncles memorial.

Cause of death: partial decapitation by multiple stab wounds.Edit: The child's head is like that because Paul Thomas approaches cartooning like one of those children's sticker books. The fox in the first one is pretty  though.

I had to look this up, so well done anyone who got this - the man next to the queen is Prince Imran of Malaysia. The photos of him don't look nearly so much like Gordon Kaye though.

The Mail and every other press body loved to rant about energy prices going up, now that the opposition has actually proposed to do something about it, they've all had to furiously backpedal to try and balance their hate for British Gas and the like and their hate of anything left of the far right

Except you lot are missing the direct link to Downfall. The strips are directly referencing a movie about Hitler. This isn't "hurr durr Germans are Nazis", this is "Nazis are Nazis". It's right there in the loving title.

We should not make any comment whatsoever about US politics because we have no concept of understanding them. Also the economy is not globally reliant, as was not evident at all when entire countries went under after the US sub-prime crash. We should probably watch without comment as the US continue in what seems like a bunch of over-privileged white men loving over their poor and potentially other countries tied to the dollar standard (most of them) because to do otherwise would make us look stupid.
