British Airways was fine sponsoring Louis Theroux's podcast when he was interviewing genocide-supporting Israeli settler leader Daniella Weiss.

But he's now apparently overstepped the mark by talking to a punk musician who made a mean chant about Israel's genocidal army.

This lurid headline is about British tourists no longer getting away with overstaying in Schengen. Or being 'illegals', as it's often called in the UK.

The UK has the highest energy prices in the world.

To make the effect clear I will list the electricity cost of making cars in three different countries.

UK £6,000
USA £3,000
China £1,200

How can we compete when a standard car in China is already £5,000 cheaper just on Energy costs?

This is both funny and horrifying.

Horrifying because people are using and trusting this tool to be reliable and wrecking careers when it's wrong.

when it comes to porn panics, we're repeating the mistakes of the past every damn day www.404media.co/steam-itchio...
