Hallo Readers,

Welcome to the Labour Party election candidate hokey-cokey. First, you pick a candidate called Azhar Ali for a seat in Rochdale which has a high Moslem population. It would be unlikely, to put it mildly, that anyone would be elected there on the basis of a warm endorsement of Zionism or Benjamin Netanyahu. Then you find out (from the newspapers) that your candidate is on tape blaming Netanyahu for a false flag operation on October 7 2023, much in the same way as Alex Jones maintained that the murder of children at Sandy Hook, Connecticut 2012 was a fake job with crisis-actors. You stick up for your candidate on the grounds that that he was such a moron he believed what he read on the Internet. Then more stuff comes out, including his suggestion at a constituency meeting that the ‘media is controlled by people in certain Jewish quarters’. The same people who defended the candidate 24 hours earlier are wheeled out to say why they cannot defend the candidate. Oh, and you also discover that the same meeting was attended by another potential candidate for a neighbouring constituency, Graham Jones, who referred to ‘fucking Israel’ and called for dual Israeli/British nationals who went to enlist in the IDF to be thrown into prison. In short- a cockup.

We are swimming in the choppy waters of the difference between anti-Semitism and anti-Zionism. WTF is one of of those who does not believe that the two are the necessarily synonymous. Mr Ali’s suggestion that Israel set up a false flag may perhaps not have been anti-Semitic but it was moronic. Then again, would he have said it about a non-Jew? Mr Ali’s later-reported statement about Netanyahu being intent on driving out the population of Gaza is not only anti-Semitic but it is also probably true. But trotting out the old trope about Jews controlling the media is classic anti-Semitism. We are back to the Protocols of the Elders of Zion, Jewish Communist Bankers, Jews killing children to use their blood for Passover matzos and the hook-nosed Jew representing everything rapacious, murderous and diabolical. What upset WTF the most about this incompetent saga was not the fact that Labour now has no candidate in Rochdale and has handed the seat with a bow wrapped around it to the vicious prat-in-a-hat George Galloway. It is that Ali and other members of the meeting  just lapped this stuff up because this is what so many of them believe. The most astonishing thing in all of this is that people who scream bloody murder over gender-critical opinions,  racist remarks against ethnic minorities or their religions and sexism, demanding immediate cancellation of the perpetrators, appear to believe that anti-Semitism, including denigration of Jews as a race AND a religion, should get a free pass.

We start our review of the week’s woeful wear with Bridgerton actor Nicola Coughlan wearing a dress and shoes by Stella McCartney.

Tally ho! Nicola has borrowed a red coat from the Master of the local Hunt. Instead of hunting foxes, maybe they should be out hunting for her hands. And why is she wearing fluffy slippers? Or are they made from the fur of the slain, bloodied, fox? Whatever the answer, it is BAD. As in shockingly BAD.

The Super Bowl happened on Sunday in Las Vegas, followed by a victory parade by the Kansas City Chiefs back in Missouri where gun-toting citizens exercised their inalienable right to shoot innocent people for no reason. In the happier days in Vegas, there were plenty of parties, including the NFL Honors party where actor Janelle Monáe wore Tony Ward.

Yet again, this is one of those outfits which prompts onlookers to ask whether the woman is actually inside the dress or behind it. She looks like the Little Mermaid hiding behind a giant sea shell.

Also present was NFL footballer Victor Cruz wearing something silly.

Er….what? The top half seems still to be on the tailor’s dummy, those are truly terrible trousers and the boots are ugly. 

On the night of the game, singer Ice Spice attended the Stadium as part of the Taylor Swift entourage, wearing this……

Sigh. Next!!

Actor Megan Fox also has it all on display in a spiked bodice and spray-on jeggings.

Who needs masks and vaccines when you can keep people at bay with a spiked bodice like a spiny leaf beetle? It is to be hoped that she remembered to take it off before hugging fiancé Machine Gun Kelly or he will have had more holes than a colander. 

 Meet actor Ilana Glazer wearing Rebecca Vallance at the Directors’ Guild Awards.

 She is wearing fringed tit goggles. That is all there is to be said.

She’s here again. Bitsflasher Julia Fox went parading around New York during Fashion Week undressed like this.

She seems to have carried out a smash and grab at the local jewellers……..

Also back is Julia’s ex, rapping lunatic Kanye West and his sort-of-wife Bianca Censori. They are in a very rainy LA. He had a rain cape and a face stocking. She is wearing a raincoat by Zurich Label Prototypes and nothing else save for a pair of leather boots.

And here are the inevitable arse cheeks. (Hers, not his).

There has to be a reason why they are both out and about in the rain in such wildly different outfits. It may be time for the FBI to intervene. Note how she is hiding her minge by clutching the raincoat at that particular point. Whatever you may think about these two, it is hardly Christopher Robin and Pooh out for a splashy walk in their wellies….

This week’s It’s Got To Go comes from WTF aficionado Ben from Bromley who took his adorable kiddies up to London for half term for a top day out on the South Bank –  lunch and a mooch at Borough Market, then the Clink Prison and the Tate Modern. Except as he and the kiddies, aged 7 and 5, were walking to Borough Market from Blackfriars, they found it hard to keep abreast given the preponderance of lunchtime joggers hogging the pavement, exuding smug self-importance and muttering imprecations about their path being blocked. Well, Ben has some imprecations of his own. As far as he is concerned, the South Bank at half-term is not the place to go jogging and these people cam fuck right off. Agreed. It’s Got to Go.

OK Readers, that’s your lot for this week.  Please keep sending in your suggestions for It’s Got To Go and your top comments, which WTF likes more than anything.  Let us meet again next Friday.  Be good x
