A pair of black guillemots on a harbourside. Each has its bill open. They are black with a large white flash on their side. About the size of a pigeon.

We can sing the truth and name the liars." - Salman Rushdie There is a portrait of Rushdie in black and white underneath the quote, it is recent photo; he has one eye covered with a blacked out lens in his spectacles.

Text only Kid Rock makes music for guys so but they girlfriends personalised, bedazzled tobacco spit cups for Christmas. Note you might argue that's an inappropriate gift for a 13 year old, but sisters really are the hardest family members to shop for.

Photo of Trump giving his speech at David with text superimposed over it. "Trump at Davos China makes almost all the windmills ... I haven't been able to find any wine farms in China ... they don't use them themselves." Fact check China has the world's largest wind fleet, around 521 GW installed by end 2024. In 2024 it generated 989 TWh from wind,10% of its electricity, which is more than three times the UK's entire 2024 power generation"
Text only "Weak response from Starmer. Very disappointing. I don't believe he's a stupid man, but my goodness he does a very good impression of one. "Our allies" my arse. The only difference that I can see between Starmer today and Neville Chamberlain waving his famous piece of paper, is that Chamberlain was simultaneously building the UK's armed forces as best he could. Starmer has just further integrated the UK's with US tech, at a time when it's just been proven by France that the Pentagon is handing intelligence to the Kremlin. NATO is dead. A European/Canadian alliance is needed with great urgency. The UK looks to be landing on the wrong side. And we are going to have to pick a side, no matter what Mr Starmer says."
Black and white image. On stage and in action. Joe Strummer is crouching stage front singing into a microphone with the stand tucked under his right arm. Stage left is Steve Jones playing a Gibson Les Paul double cutaway. Upstage of Jones is Paul Simonon, shirtless in white trousers hehe up with braces playing a Fender precision bass.

A small number of what appears to be a crowded audience can be seen crushed against the stage front, only inches from Strummer.
A Headline from, probably, the BBC website "Restaurant blames asylum girl for relocation" There is also a photo of "protestors" with union flags and St George's flags.
Cartoon. Two job interviewers behind a desk question and interviewee who responds. "What do you consider your greatest professional achievement?" "In my last job I found a room I could hide in so no one knew where I was."
X post reads "military mom here. My kid was involved in this. You have idea the pressure they were under by their CO. Disobedience was not an option. Either you do your job or get arrested. Kid is only 23."
Highly decorated plate with a portrait of Lenin in its centre.
Text only Prime minister Keir Starmer said: The UK has long supported a transition of power in Venezuela. We regarded Maduro as an illegitimate president and we agreed no tears about the end of his regime. I reiterated my support for international law this morning. The UK government will discuss the evolving situation with US counterparts in the days ahead as we seek a safe and peaceful transition to a legitimate government that reflects the will of the Venezuelan people.

Screenshot of text. "I'm reliably informed that Solstice occurs at 1503. So whatever paganistic ritual that you're planning - that's the time you need to be aiming for. At precisely 3 minutes past 3 o'clock divest yourself of your clothing, wherever you might be. Ignore the naysayers! Leap bravely over a hedgehog and run wildly in circles shouting "It's for spiritual purposes, officer!" Alternatively, simply light a scented candle newly purchased from Gwyneth Paltrow and remark "gosh, I've not smelled anything quite like that for a long time." However you're celebrating, I wish everyone a very happy Solstice. The dark months begin their retreat today and Imbolc is just around the corner."
Composite photo. The left side shows comedian Bridget Christie, white woman in a tartan pattern skirt and red top, dark below shoulder length hair. The right side is text only, it reads "Why is it that saving the planet always involves washing a yoghurt pot, while men in suits are literally setting the entire ocean on fire for profit?" - Bridget Christie.
Screenshot of news page. Headline reads "Denmark sees US as potential security concern" There is picture of Thomas Ahrenkici of the Danish Defence Intelligence Service. Further text reads "Denmark has labelled the US as a potential security concern for the first time in an annual report released by one of its intelligence agencies ..."
A composite image. The upper photo shows a cricket batter missing the ball and the ball smashing into his groin area (that's the polite way of putting it - it's right in his balls). The lower photo shed the same batter rolling on the ground in pain.

Text only. "I hope 'quiet piggy' are the last words he hears whispered into his ear by a nurse as she squirts his morphine onto the floor."
Text only. My tuppence worth. Firstly, the BBC has a lot of past form on altering interviews and footage to suit its agenda. Usually to belittle or paint the left or the working classes in the worst possible light (examples being the editing of footage from Orgreave to show mounted police charging striking miners *after* missiles were thrown when the exact opposite was the case; and Kuenssberg editing an interview with Corbyn to show him giving an answer to a completely different question to the one shown in the edited version - she was later promoted). Now - to the current shitshow. The answer to the orange mobster's obvious bullying is very simple. An apology (how craven) has already been proffered. Now broadcast the entire speech, unedited, in a special programme. Without commentary, without a presenter. BBC4 should be fine. Allow any audience (and any potential jurist) to decide for themselves whether or not an incitement to insurrection was intended. And then tell the demented old colostomy bag to go fuck himself.
Coloured pencil drawing, an abstract figure probably female is dancing in a blaze of yellow-orange colour. The drawing is unfinished.

A painting of Irish musicians a flute player, a fiddler and a Bodhran player. We are led to believe by the painting that they are playing in a pub session because there are part drunk pints of Guinness and an amber beer in front of them. Fiddle, Tin Whistle & Bodhran Player by Pam O'Connell 40x50" Acrylic on Canvas €2400 was available from The Kenny Gallery thekennygallery.ie
A man in his late 60s wearing heavy framed glasses. He is in close up and appears relaxed with his right hand raised to his cheek, lightly resting his face against the back of his finger.

Screenshot of text of email received from the nascent party being founded baby Zarah Sultana and Jeremy Corbyn. "Thanks for signing up to build a new kind of political party - one that belongs to you. We want you to be part of the founding process of this new party. Soon you'll receive information about how you can participate in the inaugural conference, where we will determine the direction of this party, the models for leadership and what the party stands for. We want to work with you to build power in every corner of our country. Please spread the word! Share the link with your friends, neighbours and colleagues. We are not fighting for crumbs. We are fighting for real change."

A tweet from LBC reads: Greta Thunberg's selfie yacht stunt brought to an end as boat is intercepted - and Israel will force those aboard to watch harrowing video of October 7 attacks
From: Ana Del Castillo For those unaware or not in the know, here’s a quick update and context: In California, protests against ICE actions are escalating, and T has deployed the National Guard. As a reminder, these are legal, constitutionally protected protests that are taking place. Let's put this in perspective. The last time a President deployed the National Guard without a governor's request was 1965 – LBJ did it to protect civil rights protestors. This time a president is doing it to intimidate protestors. This is the same prez that refused to call the Guard to protect the Capitol during the J-6 attempted coup. In fact, when he returned to office, he freed those convicted traitors. For a moment, I want you to consider the massive amounts of resources we’re committing to terrorize people, versus feeding and housing them. Never tell me again that both parties are the same.

Deeply unflattering head and shoulders portrait of white male with a rainbow Pride snood on his head and a violin tucked under his (double) chin.
A photo from the Nuremberg war trials showing a prisoner (Julius Streicher) wearing headphones, presumably listening to simultaneous translation of proceedings. Text above the photo reads " At Nuremberg, Julius Streicher was not convicted of having committed or participated in any crimes or acts of violence himself, but was convicted on the grounds that as a journalist his many speeches and articles supporting and excusing violence made him an accessory. He was hanged."
A cartoon "book" being held open with the words showing "The reason there are so many safety precautions now it's because a lot of kids didn't survive all the things that you claim you did in your childhood"

There is text above the photo which reads "I work at a credit card company. Someone replied to our offer by taping the No Postage Necessary flyer to a box full of their trash and a small boulder."

Text only, there is no image. Text reads: Best content of the day Trump was upset the funeral ceremony was not about him. So was everyone else.
Historical photo, date unknown, but from vehicles, of guess 1940s or early 50s? Could be earlier. 3 Road signs, each pointing with an arrow in the same direction. The top sign reads "to the north" The middle sign reads "to the south " The bottom sign reads "to the east" A man is standing looking at the signs having, apparently, parked his motorcycle and sidecar to do so. "This was the turnpike at Twerton Fork on the western edge of Bath. For motorists coming FROM the west on what is now the A4, these signs tried to funnel traffic along the A36 Lower Bristol Road, rather than the A4 Upper Bristol Road, as the latter would take traffic through the historic centre. It's true that the A36 would allow you to go SOUTH on the A367, EAST on the A4 (which the A36 allows you to ultimately rejoin via Bathwick St and Cleveland Place) and NORTH on the A46, which heads away from the A4 when you've rejoined it after bypassing the centre." (Explanation from J Branston)
