Assuming these are all brand new jobs (lol), that'll make a powerful 0.0006% difference to the number of people on unemployment benefits.
Truly, the change that needs changing is here!

If Labour wants to get all patriotic, don't piss around with migrants.
Introduce a patriot bill, where it requires all utility, transport and media owners to be based (and pay tax) in the UK.
Make the patriotic case that this country should control its own future and own its own free press.

It's hard to overstate what a catastrophe it would be for moviemaking and moviegoers if the Ellisons are allowed to acquire Warner Brothers and merge it with Paramount. I know that rooting for Comcast and/or Netflix sticks in a lot of throats here but those would be far better alternatives... >

Trump is okay with the brutal assassination of Jamal Khashoggi, but was up in arms over Charlie Kirk. I guess assassinations are "okay" if it's your dictator buddies doing it.

I mean, look, I'm not a reporter, so who am I to talk?
But on a day where the president both just called a woman reporter "Piggy" and is celebrating someone who had people bone saw apart one of my colleagues, I might just be a little ready to defend my colleagues and profession.
But that's just me

Strong echoes of Trump's Helsinki summit in 2018 when he favoured Putin's denial of interfering in US elections over the opinion of US intelligence services.

"A lot of people didn't like that gentleman... Things happen... He knew nothing about it."
A US intelligence report concluded that bin Salman personally "approved an operation" to "kill or capture" Khashoggi.

Starmer’s anti-asylum policies show how utterly clueless he is about the right-wing media’s role in politics.
He’s trying to fix a “problem” contrived by Farage, GB News and The Telegraph. He’ll never win, because ultimately he’s fighting a ghost – he’s fighting something that doesn’t really exist
