Back of my Polling Card for local elections. For 1st time, photo ID is required. Card gives many options for elderly or those with disability. None, NONE, for younger or student voters. The policy is simply biased against younger voters, designed to suppress their vote.
[2001] The Armando Iannucci Shows - “Communication”, Armando realises that most people do not talk to each other, which is why people end up going to landfills after nailing themselves into DIY cupboards. More problems arise in the form of racist police horses.

[1998] Clinton: His Struggle with Dirt - Satire written and narrated by Armando Iannucci. Purporting to be a documentary from the future (2028), it casts actors as older versions of real people, such as Bill Clinton and Monica Lewinsky, who are depicted in a comic account of the Lewinsky scandal.

Is anyone else watching #Avenue5 on #HBO? I see hardly anyone talking about it.
It's not exactly ground breaking stuff, but it is full of very funny lines as you'd expect from an #ArmandoIannucci comedy (he also created #Veep and #TheThickOfIt
It also has a literal #SpaceKaren in it!

Britain - a poor society with some very rich people living in it.
Despite being the "6th richest country in the world", the UK has living standards for the vast majority of the population below those of 'developed' countries.
Distribution matters.

If you want some insight into what's going down at #Twitter all you have to do is watch #Avenue5 on HBO right now. Armando Iannucci & co. are brilliant satirists.
