Lack of political organisation produced the past decade's "cancel culture" as the end goal of politics. Needless to say, it also did not produce any coherent political organisation (but it has backfired spectacularly). So we are condemned to repeat this stupidity forever. It's…
Why do people revel in people getting fired while they're not at work? The control people give bosses in their lust to be the all seeing eye is quite fascinating . Sure, this dude hella sucked, but I'd hate to lose my job because of my political affiliations.
The government literally publishes lists of countries that are unsafe to travel to.. then imports people from them. What makes them unsafe?
So HMRC have actually given an award to this twerp, James Mee, for designing the detail of the disastrous death tax expansion unveiled in Labour's last budget. He has foolishly boasted about it, not mentioning that the pensions industry has described his approach as unworkable…
Albania features. Great Britain does not.
Here are the top 24 countries, and 96 recommended spots, based on costs, amenities, health care, language, crime, climate risk and whether U.S. retirees are welcome. trib.al/M0dMbU1 (Photo: Merten Snijders/The Image Bank/Getty Images)
If you believe everything is about power, you’re going to want power.
Postmodern views are linked to authoritarianism. [Link below.]
Replacing doctors' writing sounds like a sensible use.
Missed it? Four NHS trusts are planning to introduce an AI-powered dictation tool which automatically transcribes clinicians’ notes during consultations and generates summaries. eu1.hubs.ly/H0lXRjV0
The Left have one and only one proposed solution to every economic, political, societal or global problem - surrender more power and money to the state. That’s it. That’s all they’ve got. That’s all they want.
Things every child needs to hear. !. I love you. 2. I'm proud of you. 3. A p-value is NOT the probability that the alternative hypothesis is false.
in general, if a "reform" is greeted really enthusiastically by an industry, the "reform" might not be... very reformative.
MAHA is now the greatest thing that has ever happened to big food. They can announce superficial changes to their poisonous food (in 2 years! lol) and get a full fledged advertisement from the US government This is the "fat free" advertising craze of the 2000s all over again
This totally conveys the conspiracist mindset.
This totally conveys innocence.
The 'bloke' shouted abuse at her in an aggressive manner. In response to calm speech. I probably disagree with every single thing she says and believes, but she still came across better than the 'bloke'. Have some standards.
She is a nasty, vicious woman beneath the Deidre Barlow disguise and the bloke makes an excellent point which she did not expect, because teachers at girls' private schools didn't talk like that or ever challenge her in any way.
The threat to Wikipedia (and similar sites) in the UK from the Online Safety Act isn't going away. Fundamentally this legislation is about giving the Government the ability to censor what UK citizen can read and we should not forget this. telegraph.co.uk/business/2025/…
Saw a nice house in Mayfair advertised just after Christmas and noted mentally because unusual (big but low with some private space). Same house being advertised by estate agent yesterday at 25% LESS. Looks like symptom to me.
It's nuts that people can repeat something that's just not true. The OBR data shows a *rise* in CGT receipts pre-budget because people expected a rise in tax. I expect there will be a fall post-Budget, but we won't get the data for a while (always a delay in CGT reporting)

Is it just me that doesn't have a problem with the working, but the accommodation? Official policy seems to be that supporting yourself and integrating into society is bad; hanging around aimlessly on the taxpayer's coin is good.
We’re cracking down on migrants working illegally as food delivery riders. We'll share asylum accommodation locations with Deliveroo, Just Eat and Uber Eats so they can take action if riders are staying there. We will do what it takes to ensure fairness for British people.
Remembering my brother in music, Ozzy Osbourne. I've always looked back at this commercial we shot in '03 so fondly. The last time we spoke was backstage of Dancing with The Stars season 9, when he told me how much he loved the Osmond song, "Crazy Horses"...talk about crazy!…
