@Telegraph It's not a fucking jet.

🔴 The next-generation Spitfire has buoyed hopes of a return to production for the classic British fighter plane Creators of Aerolite Spitfire Type 433 confident concept model will result in new fleets of the famed fighter jet taking to the skies 🔗 telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/05/1…

@TheUCS473 "Jet" fighter?

Ok people. Spot the mistake in this by line. This passes for journalism these days or perhaps an AI hallucination? Courtesy of The Telegraph

@MrJamesMay @TheUCS473 Jet?

@TheUCS473 Roll control will be dodgy by the looks of it.

@shouq_al90149 Yup.

@Eman_8282 White Fang.

@MarmaladesWorld I'm back to home-made veg soups twice a week.

I strongly suspect some of us were not designed for modern life… We were meant to live in crooked little cottages, speak to birds, dry herbs from ceiling beams, and dramatically stare out of rainy windows whilst soup bubbled nearby! Instead…there are emails to be sent.

@Oceanbreeze473 Don't keep me in suspenders....

Nylons go on sale for the first time on this day in 1940. Gentlemen, do you still approve?

@ColinSpenc4257 Yes. with Branston pickle.

PORK PIE. YES OR NO.

Crocodile Dundee didn’t just avoid the trap, he exposed it live on the dance floor and the entire bar cheered. Legend. Absolute legend. Hollywood would cancel this scene so fast today they’d break the delete button. 🎬🎥 Crocodile Dundee ❤️🔥🔥

@DougColtart Bet there's a bug in every room, too.

Our new Parliament is a nice building, but I found the extremely in-your-face prominence of CHINA AID’s involvement quite distasteful and disrespectful to our sovereignty as a nation. The word “CHINA” is actually more prominent than the word “ZIMBABWE” at the front of Parliament and there are THREE permanent plaques honoring China Aid. Surely we can show our gratitude for China’s support towards its construction while maintaining a bit of self-respect for ourselves as a nation at the house of the Zimbabwean People.

@ElaineM11584892 Even First Nations peoples' ancestors were immigrants.

I’ve been to 14 countries. I’ve seen beautiful cities, I’ve seen the poorest places. If you live in Australia, you have already won the world lottery. For Gods sake stop whining. I’m so fortunate to be born here. None of us are not migrants except First Nation people.

@OMGTheMess I read one newspaper letter today suggesting governments should pay for the roads, power and sewerage costs to new housing developments instead of developers. That would cut land prices massively. Sounds like a good way to help first-homers.

Ok The dust has settled a bit on the budget of Intergenerational equity Can someone please tell me how the budget achieves this? Houses won’t be cheaper. Additional houses won’t appear. Rents aren’t going down. Savings won’t increase.

@MrCunnyFunt It'll buff out...

XY GT involved in this serious accident today, remarkably everyone survived.😬🙏

@OMGTheMess We're letting in HIV-positive immigrants? 🤬

$68.5 million for HIV treatment for immigrants? Why are we allowing that immigrant?

@Silverback_MD Invest in housing overseas?

lol My mates and I are doctors in our 20s/30s/40s starting off our careers. Absolutely everyone is gobsmacked at the budget changes. Genuinely feels like our generation will get punished for working smart or hard. None of us own investment properties yet - what’s the point now? How do we get ahead now? What was the financial incentive to sacrifice our 20s to train? It feels like all the worst aspects of communism with none of the benefits….. No incentivised housing/travel/childcare for doctors No one in my group is having kids Yet our alcoholic patients are on their 4th or 5th - supported via government programs What a joke Speedrunning civilisational demise

Now that’s funny!

Of course.

@lady_valor_07 Myself.

Who?

@Peter_Fitz October 7 was such a mistake.

Sickening.

@westaustralian As a pre-Boomer, I'm not upset with the Budget. I'm a pessimist and as such expected nothing. I was right. I got fuck all. Suppose I should be happy for being right.

BREAKING: Jim Chalmers says Australia will avoid a recession but must pursue reform, announcing an expected overhaul of housing taxes and a $250 tax handout for workers. thewe.st/fedbudgetguide
