Well-nailed again Marina.👍🏼

Joining the tories in the gutter, way to go Starmer. Natural gravitation for one no less fake though.💩

Marina nails it again.

I know I’m hardly the first to point this out, by my goodness, Marina Hyde knows how to skewer someone that’s crying out for skewering.

“Yes, it’s the Gwyneth Paltrow ski massacre trial. Take your seats for a preposterously camp battle between a well-to-do retired optometrist who said the high priestess of fanny-steaming skied into him – and Her Vajesty herself, who says he skied into her. Why is this not happening at The Hague? Sorry, but NO sense of occasion.” 😂😂

Flipping #MarinaHyde is a national asset - cuts through all the #Partygate crap about whether #BorisJohnson could possibly have known he was at a party with one unassailable truth - the #FormerPM has eyes.

Why is British politics a raging bin-fire? Don’t ask the misunderstood heroes who held the torches #MarinaHyde

The best satirist in the UK (IMO) weighs in on the Spare brouhaha.

It’s Prince Harry in One Flew Over The Windsors’ Nest. Just pity those he left behind - Marina Hyde.

The book is out and as the royal gone awol speaks his truth, you have to ask: if this is Britain’s first family, what are the others like?

There was a line in the opening paragraph of this article that was so good, I was going to quote it. But the more I read, the more brilliant it became and there’s so much to quote, I’d better just post the article. It’s very much well worth a read.

I really enjoy watching (and playing) football, so people are often surprised to hear I'm #boycotting the #FIFAWorldCupQatar2022. This article by #MarinaHyde for @TheGuardian is an entertaining summary of some of the reasons.

@B__50000_ I know what you mean. Peter Cook's famous line about how cabaret "did so much to stop the rise of Hitler and prevent the outbreak of the Second World War" rings true. But he also said, "One of the ways to avoid being beaten by the system is to laugh at it." So I'll take #MarinaHyde & #JohnCrace for whatever comfort they can give.

#MarinaHyde's political sketch in today's #Guardian on loathesome incompetent #DominicRaab and his career of failure.

"From the #Brexit department to the Foreign Office, the deputy PM has been remarkably consistent in his focus on all the wrong things"
