Fake apologies, attacks on real journalists and appalling judgement in hiring a man convicted of serious sexual offences: far-right rag Spectator, ladies and gentlemen
The Spectator has issued one of those apologies that looks less like contrition and more like a hostage note written by the ego.

If you're still on X: why?
I had 270,000 followers when I closed my account.
But all I lost was 200,000 bots and trolls. The real people — the funny, the decent, the smart, the interesting — are already here. They'll find you.
Leave X. Just do it. It's personal, political and societal poison.

Nigel Farage says allegations he said "Hitler was right" while a pupil at Dulwich College and "gas 'em all" to Jewish schoolmates are "maybe solidifying our core support".

Reformer Josephine Butler (1828-1906, b. Northumberland), died on this day 1906. Arguably most effective campaigner for women’s rights of her time. She ended coverture (whereby woman’s legal rights were subsumed by her husband’s), criminalised child prostitution and human trafficking.

The White House has been caught.
The administration inserted a photo of Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross into the Epstein files and falsely implied it showed them with victims.
In reality, it’s a publicly available fundraiser photo featuring Jackson and Ross’s own children.
