Want to know what the UK would look like under Farage?

Look at the US right now.

The US far-right *is* the UK far-right, with the same people pulling all the strings on both sides of the Atlantic. The useful idiots are different, but the ideas, the tactics, and the funding are the same
Well spotted on the date.

In his emails to Epstein in mid November 2018 Bannon claims to have met up with Rees Mogg, Farage and Boris Johnson to keep Brexit on track and defeat Theresa May. Farage denies this…. And yet….

NTM Farage & Johnson & Johnson & Bannon.

Bannon: ‘He (#LiarJohnson) flew right over after WE👈👈won”

Well, 2025 was the year I exhibited (and sold) 2 drawings in an actual real exhibition, surrounded by incredible pieces of art. I'd like to thank everyone who has liked, shared, commented on or even just looked at my work this year. You lot are awesome.

Folks, this is a stunning collection of insect photos. Incredible species, expertly captured. Enjoy!

I've finished an absolute delight of a bug illustration! Green Tortoise Beetle, which is now a species I'll be looking for as I'm yet to see one in person and I've been missing out! Big thanks to @franzanth.bsky.social and his incredible array of bug photos. 🎨🐡 #invertebrate #beetle

I didn't draw many bugs this year, but I did finish this vibrant Saiva cardinalis.

Well, I finally did it. I deleted my account on 'X'.

12,000 followers vapourised instantly.

But I can't continue to exist on a platform run by such a massive, dangerous bellend.

I'm keen to speak with any creatives who have lost work because of generative AI, for something I'm writing.

If this is you, please DM me. Thank you!

Folks, do you ever think that having a true grasp of how the world works makes you sound like a conspiracy theorist to those who don't? Knowing how much damage is being caused by the wealthy minority and their control of media and governments sounds quite tinfoil hattish.

Shame on you, BBC.
Very sad that I felt I had no choice but to resign from The Infinite Monkey Cage - a victory for the transphobes and other bigots - I did it because so much of the media has chosen to believe the kind and empathetic people are a fiction - they are real and so often unrepresented.

By this point we have lots of regulars who participated in most, if not all of the previous art books. But I also like seeing new names because they keep things fresh. If you know other artists working with invertebrate subjects, please encourage them to submit something!
#InverteFest season is almost here, which means it's time to submit your bug & slug art! The form closes at 100 entries.

Find more info, download past art book, and submit here:

The year is 2027. All human jobs have been replaced by AI. No-one has any money to buy anything.

Starmer's CV should simply read 'Farage lube'. What a pathetic waste of a PM.

Top tip:
Save yourself precious life time & energy by not posting or promoting your creative projects & shops on bluesky.

You'll have the same results but without the hassle.

If I win the lottery I'd buy a nice cottage in the countryside, then spend the rest of my days rewilding some land, gardening, drawing and cooking. It would never even cross my mind to become an evil transphobic nazi. Folks, the wrong people in this world have the money.
