We celebrate Kemi Badenoch’s selection as the leader of the Conservative Party, greeted with a side order of sour grapes from the usual quarters, of course.

We celebrate Guy Fawkes Night with the story of our Royal Historical Probably Homo Possibly Hero of the Week, James VI of Scotland, I of England.

And, after a brief diversion to witness the shenanigans at Holyrood, we toast the election of the 47th President of the United States with a large bottle of TikTok Tears.

Plus: SYDNEY’S STINKY BALLS!
