prince phillip said by the bbc to have been on " good form " during the racing yesterday then taken to hospital

alcohol poisoning ?

Clearly a joyous occasion.

no christmas card for theresa this year

Take your child to work day.

Tories have deleted their manifesto from their website, so no-one realises it bears no relation to the queen's speech.

Nice of her to let the work experience boy tag along.

I like the blue and yellow clothes of the Queen: EU flag colours ;)

Strong and sable.

I wonder if it's trolling, if so fair play to her! :)

Though with all the furrin ancestry in the Royal House, it's only fair... jussayin :P

Even the Daily Mail hates Mail Online

Because no one associates the Daily Mail with the Mail Online, do they?

It's not like the Mail was instrumental in the creation of Mail Online or anything is it.

Oh wait.

i wonder what cushy ngo job is lined up for the kennsington and chelsea leader ( sorry ceo, it is a business after all ) who resigned ?

'Totally separate'? Most if not all DM content is published on MO, and the URL is dailymail.co.uk...

Different editors though - Martin Clarke for online and Paul Dacre / Geordie Grieg for print. Presumably that means they can all disown each other when it suits!

Don't Mail Online also still employ Piers Morgan as well as Ms Hopkins? - something, something, all the cnuts...

Meanwhile, in Mosul, IS have blown up the Grand al-Nuri Mosque (which dates from 1172) with its famous leaning minaret, during the holiest part of Ramadan:

More proof that they should probably just be called 'State'...

The silver lining to the cloud is that Iraqi special forces 50 metres away from the mosque means that the fall of Mosul is imminent, which will be a real blow to the group.

That's a bit bizarre. I wonder what's behind it all?

I don't follow. I thought they pursued a form of Islam, why are they so into blowing up Mosques?
