The BBC's Director of Comedy wants to "save the sitcom". But the sitcom is only endangered because most of them stopped being funny. As To the Manor Born reminds us, British comedy has lost its class, says Finlay McLaren.

We're a week away from the most painful Budget in history thanks largely to the eye-watering cost of lockdown. Yet Baroness Hallett says next time the Government must be ready to go harder and faster. This is insanity.

It's bad enough that all UK TV users are forced to fund the BBC via a TV licence. But it's worse than that, says Charlotte Gill: millions of pounds of taxpayers' money are handed to the corporation via backdoor channels.

Peace activised Eoin Rice(aka the black pope)was arrested outside the Dail on monday morning while on a two day fast.

Eoin was approached by a guard outside the house of terror to inquire to the contents of the infamous supersoaker he was carrying with him.Not happy being fobbed off by the pope the guard confiscated the offending item under some bullshit weapons act of blah blah blan
"are you out of mind "was the reply from Eoin who was promptly arrested for his protest.Papa Noir was kidnaped and taken to Pearse st.and held for some time.Denied access to his solicitor,medical attention and water Mr Rice was removed to the bridewell for remand.the state saw fit to remand the Pope for 24 hrs and after 14hrs in Cloverhill Gaol he recieved two cups of water.
Eoin Rice appeared in Tulla district court today along with seven other activists who were arrested at Shannon Airport at the Demo of march first.the case against him was dismissed as the jugde saw there was no case to answer.The Black Pope appears in the bridewell tomorrow for a bail hearing,all are welcome.

The Black Pope is a powerful witness against Irish complicity in the barbaric slaughter of innocent people in Iraq. Through his articulate 'infotainment', he is also a committed peace activist who has been libelled by pro-war propagandists.
As one of the Catholic Worker 5 who were libelled by the media and the powers that be, in relation to hospitalising and assaulting a guard (subsequently refuted by a Garda spokesperson), it makes me sick to once again see the usurpation of the peace movements' language. Message to Irish Media.....Stop spreading lies NOW!!!!

The Black Pope is a peaceful and loving person. Deeply affectionate and compassionate, he is a person who has great empathy with the innocent victims of humanity's inhumanity towards humanity.

'Share man', reveal your covert nature to the Black Pope in person and vent your cowardice in person.
Viva La Papa Noir...........RESPECT

Penknife nothing to do with arrest - found when stripsearched by Gardai

Indo Liars however (Drennan are you listening) reported as far as I can remember that he had it in his hand - oh I wonder why -

gards - info to Indo Journo - Discussion with Willies Doktors - incompetent and transparent and documented lies

It is the pope's funny but effective sci fi pa kit that they are trying to shut down

Our usual call - release the CCTV on Crimeline

Of all dail incidents

Let us out of the FF/Indo Propagandamatrix

What did he have in his pants?

Were these prepared derivatives of naturally occuring compounds that large commercial interests do not control and therefore have caused the state to ban and criminalise.

Could the black pope think for himself and enjoy the fruits of nature without concern for the senseless, counterproductive rules and regulations bought by Randolph Hearst et al at the start of the last century?

And how do you know - did you find them there? Did you put them there? Did you record them in the report as he was locked up for protesting? Did you read the report and decide that this was what people should discuss, not the deaths that black pope is trying to prevent?

Or maybe you were just really impressed during the strip search.

Jugges Mangan is really suited to Indymedia, as he doesnt like to report the facts. Why don't you tell the readers the truth about the Black Pope??

Did you convieniently forget to state what was found hidden in his pants??
