The right-wing press inhabit a very strange parallel universe that thankfully is ever-shrinking.
Just how bonkers do you need to be to think that this is the news? The tiny flecks of spittle must lodge in their eyes…

Our little princess, Dotty, has been bitten by a rat and has a massive abscess on her face, bless her.
She has a vet's collars on while it's draining and her antibiotics are kicking in.
