POPSOh ah Cantona, the King, their player of the century. Now a film star Cantona, a mercurial, brooding and inspired player during his years of glory in Manchester in the 1990s, reveals an unexpected comic touch as he takes occasional puffs on a joint and dispenses life advice to his namesake and fan Eric Bishop. Loach said Cantona, who co-produced the picture and has made a number of films since ending his playing career more than a decade ago, "acts like he plays football, with flair and creativity". The film plays with his image as an unpredictable genius given to gnomic pronouncements as he materialises in "Little Eric's" terraced house and sets about restoring the self-confidence of a man crippled by regrets about the past. "I am not a man, I am Cantona," he declares superbly at one point before taking out a trumpet and delivering an uncertain performance of "The Marseillaise".

POPSComic: "Men kissing each other…it throws me off" says Kiss my ass, Joe The even bigger rent-a-mouthpiece than Palin is displaying his best attribute. Yes, Joe the bigotry, is now available for a large fee to any 'Christian' fundamentalist cult that need a rabble-rouser and can afford the fee. For the right fee, the asshole will bend right over but refuses to touch a male himself. He'll make a perfect prostitute candidate in the reformed Rush led GOP party. Please stop laughing. This is past funny.

POPSBrilliant Cartoon. Anti-Semitic or anti-Zionist?! Oliphant's political cartoon about the Israel-Gaza conflict has sparked a predictable uproar from ADL, who see the cartoon as anti-Semitic. How does one respond to the sight of a Star of David mutant with giant teeth and one evil eye fixated on a defenceless tiny woman, holding a baby? I'm confident that its message is anti-Israel, not anti-Semitic. Israel is obviously the jack-booted headless figure carrying the sword and Star of David as weapons. The jack-boots and goose-stepping are meant to provoke the reader with comparisons to a Nazi storm-trooper. Right?
