Immigration has also boosted economic growth and productivity and increased tax revenue. In fact one of the most egregious myths surrounding immigration is the idea that immigrants act as a drain on the public finances when in fact the complete opposite is true.

I keep seeing these articles about fried chicken in UK but no one address the elephant in the room.
Where does it come from? What do the chickens eat and how are they reared? And treated? What are the conditions and how much pollution this causes? Cheap crap chicken!

Just watched the most terrifying film - On The Beach. Based on the Nevil Shute novel, it’s a bleak post nuclear war story of the last humans waiting to die in Melbourne & how they deal with the end of the world. Still horribly possible.

This is a farce
⚡️Today, Zelenskyy (unofficially) said: The US in Abu Dhabi proposed extending the energy ceasefire until the next meeting, and Ukraine agreed. Russia paused to "think it over," and then launched a massive shelling last night—it looks like a de facto refusal, — UP.
