Sacha Baron Cohen has said the reason that Ali G 2 has bombed at the Box Office is due to 'anti-semitism' and is part of a wider:
"trend of Jews being portrayed in certain ways and trying to be silenced."
RFK: "There's five hundred million Arabs in the world. And yet they don't produce science. They don't win the Novel Prize. They don't win the Fields Prize. They don't win the Wolf Prize. They don't produce literature."
On #CelebrityTraitorsUncloaked last night Ed Gamble suggested Jerry, Romesh and Rob should do a podcast together and all I can think is it should be called J.R.R. Talkin'. They don't even have to talk about Lord of the Rings or anything. But they could. #CelebrityTraitors

ODE TO A BROKEN PLATE;
Once whole and round, now broke in two, a little plate I bought from new.
Bought from a store in Surbiton, on which I placed my food upon.
With matching crockery and dishes, meeting years of dining wishes.
Years went by, all broke but one, this plate, the last, now sadly gone.
Men: if you've taken to buying lots of clothes on Vinted and may even consider yourself something of an addict, can you get in touch with little old ME?
Wow. While this may be true of the UK, I think it's also true of the US, where the consistency of Update laughs is far better - the disparity being bigger, if anything.
Speaking in massive generalities here but it is amusing to me how much SNL UK is Bizarro World to me because their Update is routinely far and away the best part of the show while they continue to struggle with live sketches, something that runs complete opposite to the US show
I was on a flight to Israel and struck up a conversation with the lady beside me. She was Jewish; her family were Holocaust survivors. As we saw the coastline of Israel from the window, she burst into tears. It was her first time visiting. Tell me again how Jews have no connection to the land of Israel.
Russell Brand leaves Southwark Crown Court in London on the first day of his rape trial.

If my assistant get an email that she thinks I need to read, I’ll tell her to print it out and read it to me in the voice of the person who wrote it. pointsincase.com/articles/im…
