It's an offence to disturb a bat, why wasn't it just left alone?

Bat rehabilitation Ireland is based in Limerick. Please call Susan first for advice before interfering with a bat. They are highly protected & cannot be handled without a licence.

That's just Roderic O'Gorman revealing his true form after a crushing defeat.

Ok, this is what you SHOULD have done, get in touch with these people who are just around the corner and ask them for advice. He may be fine, but you should always release a bat in the evening and place him at least 6 feet off the ground so he can fly.

Count Binface, and how British satire protects the establishment. There’s a tradition in Britain of only breaking our stiff upper lip to smirk at some twat who’s standing for election dressed like he’s going to run the London Marathon for charity. Count Binface is the latest one, and he’s the sole candidate (notwithstanding a few other cranks such as Piers Corbyn) running against Nigel Farage in Clacton. The usual excuse for novelty candidates is that they give voters an opportunity to make a protest vote against the establishment. But in this case all the establishment parties (the Tories, Labour, the Greens, Lib Dems) aren’t fielding a candidate. Count Binface IS the establishment candidate. He’s played by regime comedian Jonathan David Harvey, an Oxford graduate who according to his CV has written for BBC comedy shows such as The Thick of It, Have I Got News For You and Yes Minister (blimey, he must’ve started young). British satire has always been an establishment controlled release valve. Like the illusion of opposition media in Russia it’s there to give a facade, a reassurance that there’s some sort of democracy, but in reality it’s an establishment tool used to attack insurgents. Count Binface is welcomed onto every establishment news channel (even ones who refused to platform Reform), always with the same smirky smirk, and he’s celebrated by smirky establishment politicians. Over the next few weeks in the run-up to the election in Clacton, I’m going to get sick of establishment goons smirking, and I’m going to get very sick of Count Binface.
