In 1911, the Rigby family included their cat, Tom, in their census form. 'Tom Cat' was listed as being an 8-year-old, married Mouse-Catcher, Soloist, and Thief with 16 children. His birthplace was listed as Cheshire, and he was described as being 'speechless' in the infirmity section of the form.

I'm a vicar in a small rural village. I could never say this to my flock because of the outcry, but Reform are blatantly opposed to genuine Christian values and it's clear that anyone considering voting for them has not been listening to a single word I say each week

So Elon musk’s cuts because of “woke” directly led to the Iranian schoolgirls being bombed.

Asshole of the year.

Heard on the news... "Netanyahu unable to attend Board of Peace unveiling in Davos for fear he'd be arrested for war crimes..." Satire is off for a long lie down in a darkened room

Imagine the son-in-law of the US President presenting a ‘vision and plan’ for a shiny city with resorts on the ruins of Auschwitz or Theresienstatd where dozens of my mother’s family and tens of thousands of others were slaughtered. And from which he will personally benefit. Repulsive, inhuman & rapacious doesn’t even begin to describe what they are proposing

Help us make hope normal again. Join the Green Party now.

Govt suppressed this horrifying report last year, sneaking it out now while attention elsewhere, no doubt hoping to bury dire implications of likely ecosystem collapse. Ministers must urgently step up, change direction & restore vital life support systems theguardian.com/environment/20…

Almost 400 billionaires and millionaires from 24 countries have signed an open letter urging leaders to increase taxes on the world's wealthiest people. The letter released to coincide with the Davos economic summit has been signed by well known names including the actor Mark Ruffalo and the musician Brian Eno. They say that a "handful of global oligarchs with extreme wealth" have "cost everyone else everything else" and are driving society towards breakdown.

During the filming of Superman in 1948, due to a lack of technical resources to simulate a person flying, they resorted to a surprising technique: drawing it by hand. Awesome creativity!

I'm back! Here's my cartoon for Monday's @MetroUK @MetroPicDesk #Trump #Venezuela #FIFAPeacePrize

#BookIllustrationOfTheDay is by Polish duo Lewitt-Him ( Jan Le Witt and George Him) for “The Little Red Engine Gets A Name” by Diana Ross (No not THAT Diana Ross!) 1942. This duo created lots of very influential, mid-century design work. Loved this image as a kid! Such drama!
