Steve Coogan has again avoided a driving ban after being caught doing 97mph on the M6 near Telford on 29 July last year. He pleaded with the judge that it would adversely impact upon his upcoming TV show - something he has successfully argued before. He already had six points on his licence so a further six would have resulted in disqualification.
But in a letter -he couldn't even be bothered to turn up - to Birmingham Magistrates Court, he stressed that a ban would result in the next series of The Trip being "severely impacted", writing: "I am due to appear in a well-established TV series called The Trip (with Rob Brydon) which as the title suggests requires me to drive," He added that other "important" film commitments this year also require him to drive. He implored the judge to impose five points instead of six, which was eventually agreed upon. He was also fined £2,500 and given a £1,000 surcharge with £90 costs.
He wrote a similar letter in 2019 after he was caught speeding, telling the judge that the new series of Alan Partridge would be disrupted if he was disqualified and was consequently banned for only two months instead of the usual six - meaning the show could go ahead.
He was previously banned for 28 days in 2016 for driving almost twice the 30mph speed limit in Brighton.
Republican politicians verify that Trump actually only wants Palestinians kicked from their homes "temporarily"
Trump says no, I didn't mean temporarily, I meant permanently

Same here then.
Except I don't want to stick the boot into a group of people that have already been through utter hell by kicking them out of their own country and stealing their land
But obviously you aren't remotely bothered by that
Because Trump being President is "funny"
Pathetic
Obviously.
To all the morons who INCREDIBLY believed that Trump cared about the cost of living crisis for working class people
Since he waddled his fat ass back into the Whitehouse...
The price of gas is now up by $.70 per gallon
While the price of eggs have tripled.
Gonna get much much worse
Enjoy , gullible f**kheads
President Donald Trump made big strides among Latino voters in the 2024 presidential election thanks in large part to the influence of evangelical Latino churches.
However, the Associated Press reports that many of these churches already feel "devastated and abandoned" by him after he signed an executive order authorizing Immigrations and Customers Enforcement to conduct immigration raids at schools and churches.
Although many Latino evangelicals believed that the Trump administration would only target people with criminal records for deportation, they've been surprised to learn that even some of their own pastors are now in the crosshairs.
Trump is just an ignorant senile old man
The REAL idiots - are fools like these people who were unbelievably stupid enough to fall for his bullshit
Church folk - wanting a felonious, xenophobic, racist, fraudulent sex criminal as their president
Serves them right, they should be utterly ashamed of themselves
He's doing a great job, what are you on about?

Trump pledged to end the Ukraine war within 24 hours of taking office.
How's that going?
One thing at a time. No more paper straws, so that's a bonus.
It really is as we wouldn't his supporters hurting themselves on those nasty paper ones , much safer to give them rubber ones.
But you could easily construe that in a court of law to mean he instigated the solution to the end of the war on day one, which he did do. All that's needed is for it to eventually work, which everyone really knew would take time. No other ally has done anything else than pay billions of taxpayers' money to keep the war and loss of life going! Perspective is needed.

He's certainly delivering on carrying out his pre elections promises, he's probably done more in one week in office than some presidents did in their whole term (the late Jimmy Carter springs to mind).
