Your astrological week ahead for July 12th, with Psychic Bob

Aries, March 21st–April 19th

Ladies, why not spice up your love life by claiming you’ve been fingered by a ghost?

Taurus, April 20th–May 20th

I won’t walk directly across the cartoon duck that’s painted on my five-year-old’s playground. I have too much respect for the institution of Oakwood Primary.

Gemini, May 21st–June 21st

How I wanked my terminal illness away: read my book The Spunk Path.

Cancer, June 22nd–July 22nd

“Hate to be that guy, but still waiting on a lot of RSVPs for August’s full scale reenactment of the Siege of Rhodes. I need to sort out flights and minibus transfers for 180,000 people from Luton airport, I’ve been stitching Ottoman Empire flags for months and the deposit for trebuchets is non-refundable, so I’d appreciate replies ASAP.”

Leo, July 23rd–August 22nd

It turns out, you reflect from the wreckage of your mangled plane, that ‘monkey-see-monkey-do’ has limits.

Virgo, August 23rd–September 22nd

It’s got to the point that bushes look naked without a little bag of dog shit hanging off them.

Libra, September 23rd–October 22nd

When you hit your mid-50s, you may feel like you’re falling out of love with Terrahawks and you made the wrong decisions in youth. This is normal and will fade.

Scorpio, October 23rd–November 22nd

Fleetwood Mac wrote Rumours with all of that interpersonal conflict. Imagine what you and your co-worker Steve you despise could do in the studio.

Sagittarius, November 22nd–December 21st

Unable to wait any longer, Lauren Sanchez strikes hard with the baseball bat and – crack! – Jeff Bezos breaks open, diamonds and share certificates and cash cascading out.

Capricorn, December 22nd–January 19th

You suspect you may not be popular in future, as that’s the fourth time traveller who came back specifically to kill you.

Aquarius, January 20th–February 18th

Do something crazy this week, like booking an Open Return instead of two Advanced Singles. Be a completely mad bastard.

Pisces, February 19th–March 20th

Do the Royal Marines ever dip their biscuits in tea or does it give them PTSD to those barrack-room wanking days?

The Archbishop of Canterbury on… RIP Jimmy Swaggart, man of God but mostly prostitutes

WAKING with a hangover so toxic that when I vomit and my dog comes scampering into my room to eat it he drops dead on the spot, I reflect on the week’s events.

We learned this week of the death of former Conservative minister Norman Tebbit, aged 94. Shortly after it was announced, the suggestion was put to me that a service in his honour be conducted at the Abbey. I readily agreed.

Conservative politicians, friends and Tory grandees gathered en masse. I ascended the pulpit, took a large swig from a bottle of rum and orated as follows.

‘So, Norman Tebbit’s fucking died at long fucking last. Thought the cunt died years ago but turns out if you’re evil you live as long as a fucking Galapagos tortoise. Kissinger, Murdoch. You get my point. 

‘You were, from the get-go, a piece of vicious yet respectable hooligan scum who made the lives of millions a fucking misery with your heartless Tory dogma. I’d have liked to have got on my bike and run right over your fucking ugly face, you racist, homophobic streak of ossified rat’s toss. We will now sing hymn number 57.’

The response in the Abbey was muted to say the least but the eulogy was being live-streamed over a tannoy system and the cheers from outside were plainly audible. 

Reflecting with satisfaction on a fitting send-off, I take a light breakfast and peruse a periodical. Therein I read that Kemi Badenoch has complained about proposed wealth taxes, stating at PMQs that ‘this is something that will affect all our constituents’.

Fuck me badger style, you what? A wealth tax on people with assets of over £10 million affects all Tory constituents? I mean, that’s a stretch unless you’re talking about the constituency of Cuntley-On-Thames, isn’t it? Most Tory constituents are struggling to keep up monthly payments on their fucking greenhouses, not sitting on lottery winnings! Are you just being thick for a laugh now? And don’t worry, there’s no way Starmer will bring in a wealth tax because he’s crawled as far up the billionaires’ arses as you have! Look to your left, he’s there by the fucking lower colon!

Ed Sheeran has a new art exhibition, entitled The Cosmic Carpark Paintings, at the HENI Gallery in Soho. His paintings are in the style of Jackson Pollock.

Joseph fucking Mary, you are the biggest fucking cultural spacewaster of our times, aren’t you? You’ve already inflicted your fucking music and just-some-desperately-ordinary-guy schtick on us, and now you’re trying to import it into the art world! Is no space safe from your ubiquitous fucking blandness? ‘Ooh, it’s just spilling paint on a canvas, I could do that!’ you no doubt thought like every other pretentious pop idiot. Next time exhibit your paintings at the nearest rubbish dump for ease of disposal. That’s if they’ll fucking accept them!

Columnist Camilla Tominey has written in the Daily Telegraph that ‘the new Corbyn-Sultana party may be the most sinister Britain has seen in decades’. 

God you are so right! They might try to retrieve too much shit out of the rivers! They might see to it that the workshy disabled get to travel to the dole offices in specially adapted Rolls-Royces to collect their benefits while management consultants struggle to pay private school fees! They might nationalise the sausages! ‘Sinister’ my mottled arse! We’ve got Little Englander fascism knocking at the door with Farage and his bigots but you’re terrified of Corbyn and pretty normal person Sultana? Stop wasting your time, Camilla. The Tory right won’t have to do a thing to fight off a left-wing party, because the fucking liberals will do the job for them!

Finally, it seems that American preacher and televangelist Jimmy Swaggart has died aged 90.

And what a man of fucking God you were! Filmed with a woman you were shagging just blocks from your church, caught with another in a car, discovered visiting a sex worker in New Orleans, arrested in your fucking Jaguar while driving pissed with a sex worker in the passenger seat… and all while making a shit ton of money raining verbal hellfire on us sinners! You’d have fitted right in in Trump’s ghastly, evangelical, brazenly hypocritical America where life is a non-stop grift, so it’s a shame you never got to hang out at Mar-A-Lago. But don’t worry – it’ll be a lot fucking warmer than Florida where you’re hopefully going!
