Vance loves to deploy fabricated racist fearmongering. First Haitians are eating the pets, now Indigenous people sacrificed children?! Sheesh.

What do you get when you mix the best selling single of the king of pop with the lately departed queen of MAGA?

This is what we get: a parody of Billie Jean about #mtg #maga #marjorietaylorgreene 🎶🕺

Here's "Trump'll Nail Ya" - a song about the #BBC legal crisis (set to the tune of the shanty "Drunken Sailor") which created a big internal debate about what's a gremlin and what's a mogwai. 🎶⚓️

... fingers crossed for an apology but not a daft and unnecessary settlement ...

Exactly ONE YEAR AGO TODAY (just before the presidential election) we created "Bohemian Trumpsody" ... so now people can play #Project25 bingo with what was in the parody vs what has transpired in the USA in the 365 days since ...

Superb news showcasing the wonder of medical science.

Huntingdon's is a brutal terminal disease.

This new gene therapy slows the disease's advance by 75%.

One medically retired patient has now returned to work.

Others, expected to need wheelchairs, are walking.

In some ways, an oddly upbeat vibe, for a musical rundown of the backsliding #freespeech situation developing in the US ... but this is our 🎵 parody "Freedom of Speech" to the tune of #Disney's "Under the Sea" - with some familiar faces cut in. 😎

Years too late. Incredible that the GMC - whose entire raison d'être is upholding professional standards in UK medicine - has allowed Aseem Malhotra to spew out his toxic, dangerous, anti-scientific disinformation for so long.

Regulatory failure at its worst.

We are calling this "Raise the Colours (or, The Ballad of Little Bobby Jenrick)"

It's a musical commentary on #raisethecolours, celebrating Robert Jenrick's latest social media antics, with a ukelele gradually going out of tune.

Here's "The Game with the Names" - a home-made 🎶 parody of the legendary #ABBA song ("The Name of the Game"), but offering a satirical twist on the #Trump & #Epstein files story (so far) with a dose of disco lights and half-hearted hand gestures ... 🕺

We stole a couple of nights from live gig prep to work up a final parody of the school year. So, prompted by Farage's stunt in the Channel last week, this one's called "Nigel Doesn't Care" and is a twist on the epic Bon Jovi track "Livin' on a Prayer". Have a great weekend 😎🎶
