I dunno, isn't 'what do I put on my voicemail when I'm going on holiday' a middle class problem? I mean I like the joke at the end but I'm pretty sure this is Stephen Collins's weekend, with ducks

Still better than 'thing happened, starring the Labour party candidates' theme though

Most male ducks are rapists and plenty are necrophiliacs, so I hope it's not Stephen Collins's weekend. I'm already terrified of anyone British and moderately famous after the past few years.

This week's If ties in with this editorial Bell strip that was posted earlier in the thread:



At first I thought the "part 2" was just referencing the original photo. However, it's actually a callback to a Bell cartoon from 1997, when Labour swept to power:



And in If-land "nipped his nuts" is more than just a euphemism of course:

That's preety much an accuate representation of what's going on even if Corbyn isn't outright bringing back Clause 4.

Love it.


It shows that Corbyn has had enough and is going to win the election four times by fixing things on to the path of clause 4 as he travels through the dead wasteland that Tony Blair brought havok on. A good cartoon.

Also Corbyn should be going left not right Adams. Christ, get on the ball.

The national sovereignty thing is one of the things that, on the balance of it, I like about the EU.

Until there are some strong internal checks and balances on the UK government then checks from above are probably a good idea.

There's good points against them, but I guess the Times isn't going to go with "My dad opposes neoliberalism and dangerous trade deals."

Also she's been held up as a great example of success and a prominent 'No' campaigner yet it's just emerged her business is in trouble, having posted a loss of over half a million in the last 18 months and only making a profit of £1400 in the 12 months preceding that.

It's something about how the government doesn't collect VAT if you're flying out of the EU, and the shops check your pass to see where you're going. But instead of giving you the pre-VAT price some shops have just been charging the sticker price and keeping the money, which isn't illegal, but some MPs are very annoyed. And people have been withholding their passes so the shops always have to assume they need to pay the VAT, or something
