Judging from the comments it seems it's something 'rude' but for the life of me I can't fathom what!

As others have said, it's an old shock image of a man pulling his bum hole open with both hands, that is a pretty big meme because the general shape can be seen in a lot of other places, the funny part is that the guy off art attack is making it.

The usual response is "no ring" because the man is wearing a wedding ring, which Neil has helpfully included in his, as a man of fine artistic eye ought to.

Thanks (?) for the goatse info. I can live the rest of life in peace now I know that's what it was supposed to be.. erm

Anyway I thought protests were illegal now & I bet a good proportion of those protesting ULEZ were all in favour of banning protests because leopards etc.

This was a very famous UK example. People were asked to submit designs for the Olympic 2012 logo and this one was featured on the BBC

I'm not arguing for separate judges and suchlike, more just a department of 'let's make sure our staff aren't murdering people and/or completely incompetent' independent of the usual management structure which would then be responsible for flagging things up to the actual police if need be.
Thinking further on it, I think there should be a mechanism for review of scientific claims made by so-called expert witnesses at trial that is closer to academic peer review and much less reliant on the defendant getting their own experts to state other nonsense even more confidently, because reading further (cw: for graphic descriptions) a lot of the expert claims made at the Letby trial were based on pet theories, hunches, and things that are a lot closer to “I saw Goody Proctor with the Devil!” than anything that would pass academic review.

It's not realistic to expect judges and juries to be experts on every area of science and medicine which may arise during a criminal trial, nor to have separate science judges, but there ought to be a better mechanism for claims of general fact (i.e. "this chemical is a poison" rather than evidential claims of "I saw this person with the poison") to be challenged more generally from outside the trial without it being considered as interrupting or introducing new evidence, because otherwise you could just hire Harold Bornstein to spout balls about known reality all day uncontested if the other party can't get a louder expert.

(See also the number of cases in the Innocence Project where the suspect was convicted on hair strand analysis despite years of academics saying "hair strand analysis doesn't work on Black hair". The police were probably getting that one wrong on purpose.)

I'm not making any certain claims of innocence, it's well within probability that there was enough criminal evidence to convict based on that alone, it's more that getting a bunch of people in to state pet theories and discredited notions as expert testimony and having no outside method of addressing that on its claims of general (rather than case specific) fact is far from ideal.

That wouldn't pass a masters dissertation presentation, yet it can be used to sway a jury who can't verify it independently. And it's not like it hasn't been used in the past to wrongfully convict.

Don't worry, today's cover is saying "the boats" is the EU's revenge for Brexit. Because there were no boats before Brexit, and Brexit didn't make it specifically easier and more worthwhile for the EU to move migrants onto us. Someone buy them a hotdog suit.

The best case scenario is they found all these guys down the pub and gave them fancy dress stethoscopes because "infants can't naturally develop autoantibodies to insulin" guy sounds like more of a danger to kids than Letby if he's working in any paediatric capacity.

The sun finally stops being able to do fusion properly and begins to swell into a red giant. The final stages of stellar evolution see the sky as an apocalyptic black space dominated by the swelling corpse of the star, with the oceans simultaneously boiling and freezing. The last humans huddle on earth, gaze up at the sky and write their own final eulogy
