A creative reader writes in to notify us of these splendid-looking mugs, and to pledge that all profits (about 45% of the sale price) will be donated to our fundraiser.

Frankly we’re taking them at their word on the second part, but either way they seem a rather excellent thing to have in your home.

Good morning, Unionists 46

(We’re particularly impressed by the attack on Nicola Sturgeon, just days after a poll found her to be the most popular politician in Scotland, and probably Britain. Genius.)
