Utterly moronic, dumb & embarrassing!
What terrible but incredible micro-targetted ads / social media brainwashing bubbles unleashed the caveman in the seemingly endless barbarian hoardes?

A complete lack of awareness and a national embarrassment.

Vigilance was never more necessary, regulation never more important.
And yet neither will be adequate, not by a long way.
'Free & Fair' elections, however much of a pipedream that always was, may be a diminishing ideal in the rear view mirror.

EU investing €546 billion for high speed rail by 2040
E.g. Lisbon to Warsaw, from 38 hours today to 12 hours
Pricing to compete with low cost flights
Reduce emissions by 80%
Jokes on them, they don't have Brexit sovereignty 🤷♂️

The Spectator (owned by GBNews owner Paul Marshall - estimated wealth of £800 million) doesn’t like taxing wealth fairly.
I wonder how they got to this editorial decision?
Let’s tax wealth fairly, fund front line services & make hope normal again.
