England & Wales: Private firms = high bills, big dividends, underinvestment.
Scotland: Publicly owned = lower bills, reinvested profits, better performance.

RIP Hind Rajab.
Today is one year on since this little six year old was killed (my daughter's age) - and then so were the two brave medics who came to rescue her, as agreed by the IDF, as she cowered in her family car with her family dead around her.
I will never forget this story.

A reported steep rise in cases may have been affected by a broader classification of grooming since 2017—as well as by changing rates of reporting.

The rest of the world's media, especially the European media, reports the simple facts: the UK left the EU and now the economy is stagnant.
It is only the British media that does not think the Brexit part is usually worth mentioning.

I am a little bored with the 'What About Brexit?' bombardment tbh but you really can't talk about the UK's "deep economic scars" without bloody mentioning it. Unless you're the BBC, apparently. Its negative impact is not an opinion, it's counting.

For any Americans reading this - Barnsley is a town in northern England surrounded by (ex)coal mining villages. Margaret Thatcher tried to destroy it, Reform target it - and this woman saves it!
