I live in loving America, mate, and it's "In the name of God, Go!" I don't think he was quoting, that's just how he talks.

The Mail hates a lot of the same things you do. They've been against the war from the off, donating their centre-fold for a placard-ready protest sign. They also hate immigrants and the poor.

It did start at a McD's. While I can see how it's not the coverage they'd want it's definitely not libellous. "The shooting started at McDonalds" has been the first sentence of the second paragraph for a lot of coverage and as that's specifically a happy meal pictured it's not looking down on the brand. Assuming the artist is sane and wants to lament dead children, he's using the garbage lunchbox as a symbol of childhood innocence. Still an awful cartoon. The kid in Tokyo was 26 by the way, for people who get all their news from the Brit politoons thread.

Well it's not a ventriloquist dummy it's just trying to convey "cartoon". I guess the thought is "Trump painted her as a one-note crook, which is correct."

For anyone not up on Mail Campaigns, they went quite hard against the commitment to spend 0.7% of GDP on foreign aid. Made it to a debate in parliament, where no MPs spoke in favour of removing it.

I can't dig out the old Private Eye that talked about it but Virgin have a few pricing things like that where a ticket to/from a large city costs more than the same journey from a small town further away from the destination. And they view buying the latter ticket as fraud, referring people to the police if they think they spot you.
