Our 25 favourite funny things from this week
With the news that Tommy Robinson has been sentenced to nine months in prison for contempt of court, we can’t help but wonder whether Donald Trump will stage a rescue, since the repeat offender sent him a video pleading for asylum. After all, what does Donald Trump love more than asylum seekers?
In other news, the Queen charmed everybody by planting a tree – anybody else planning to climb into Buckingham Palace should be aware she can wield a spade with the best of them.
Over on Twitter, these funny people have been doing their thing – and we’re very grateful for the diversion.
