Just another day on Brexit Island

Things which are not like the Holocaust: being required to wear a mask on public transport.

Things which are not like apartheid: vaccine passports.

In other words, the Brexity anti-everything-sensible types are venting their spleen everywhere, accusing the rest of us of 'living in fear'. Marina Hyde has their measure.


Meanwhile, the entire UK has been giggling at this story that's been doing the rounds of the local newspapers. I'll let the title speak for itself: Bomb squad called to Gloucestershire Royal Hospital after man gets WWII mortar stuck up his bottom. Apologies for all the various banner and popup ads — local papers all seem to be like this. (I'm assuming the man in question is okay, otherwise I wouldn't have shared the story, no matter how childishly funny I found it.)

And that's pretty much been my Friday, from the absurd to the ... absurd in a different way.

I know, right? Such a ridiculous thing to have happened!
