It's been 9 horrible months and I find myself looking back on those "eating the cats and dogs" days with nostalgia.

So the successor company to Penguin Books?

The company which defended itself in the David Irving vs Penguin libel case?

Which destroyed Irving's career by demonstrating that yes, he really was a Holocaust denier.

Oh and by the way some people I spoke to afterwards, who'd only seen the headline and DI whining afterwards, swallowed DI's story that this was his free speech being impinged on...

When the opposite was true!

He had sued Penguin! He had tried to impinge on author Deborah Lipstadt's free speech.

Doubtless Trump will also try to have his cake and eat it.

Off topic, but I had a very strange personal encounter with David Irving story in which I had no idea who he was and thought he was a pleasant, quiet older gentleman 😳

Shock at you meeting him.

Though not in the least surprised to learn he can be pleasant and charming when he wants to be.

Thank you.

I'm guessing that AF1 is landing at RAF Northolt for the official drop off, which means I don't have to stand outside shaking my fist at the sky as it flies overhead to land at RAF Mildenhall! I think they usually park it up there for the duration of a presidential visit so if I see it coming on Flight Radar I may sneak out to yell "A pox on your houses" as it passes by 😜

Edited

Boeing call sign N/A is halfway across the Atlantic now, preceded by a pair of small jets also with call signs N/A. Either that's it, or a decoy.

Damn thing flew right over us the last time. Fists duly shaken!

Kash Patel appears to be wearing a Liverpool FC tie as a lucky omen 😱

These replies 😂

I know football (soccer) is no longer just a school kids' sport in the US and International teams are loyally followed... but wearing a Liverpool tie to a Senate hearing like he knows Arne Slot or something...!?

No more, please. This is unbearable.

He has landed

Igotjelly · 16/09/2025 21:34

He’s looking fairly healthy and spritely coming down the stairs of Airforce One.

Poor Yvette Cooper. I bet she detests him but she's a consummate professional and played it with great apparent enthusiasm and delight.
Maybe she learnt that by being married to Ed Balls.

DuncinToffee · 16/09/2025 21:48

She certainly drew the short straw

Massive images of Jeffrey Epstein, Donald Trump and Prince Andrew have been projected onto the walls of Windsor Castle just in time for Trump’s arrival.

He's staying at the US ambassador's residence in Regent's Park tonight. Hopefully the Friend of Epstein images aren't shut down before tomorrow.

Freeze Peach! ✊🏻

I would happily contribute to a fund for legal fees, bail or whatever they need

So glad to see high winds greeting Trump and Melania as they alight AF1. Aren't we honoured Melania has left her NY home to visit us but, in the name of all that is holy, what was that down to the floor Mac she was wearing? What with her hair blowing all over her face, it was quite a sight ! The orange man's hair did not move a miniscule of course!

I was wondering what the actual crime is? Can't be Criminal Damage as the fabric of the castle is untouched. Public Order?

I was amused that the same group smuggled Epstein mugs into the Windsor Castle gift shop

logicisall · 17/09/2025 08:15

Anyone else seen the video of what appears to be a female serving officer and a male veteran(?) being arrested for protesting against the Israeli genocide in Gaza, outside a meeting in an official building? Video is too long to post, but here are screen shots.

It’s frightening that they were arrested!

I’m taking a train to London with a big sign for the protest this afternoon. I really don’t want to be arrested, and will be on my best behaviour.

logicisall · 17/09/2025 08:17

The photos are being reviewed by MNHQ. I imagine they're going to be very busy today!
