Healthcare is to keep people alive.
Housing is to stop people being homeless.
Education is to stop the world ending up like the USA.
There should be no profit in any of them.

41% of Tommy Robinson and Nigel Farage's followers who got arrested at the Riots last year had previous for Domestic Abuse.
But apparently it is immigrants who are the problem and not your friendly patriotic wife beater.

64% of the richest 10% in Britain got most of their money via inheritance, not by working for it.
Such as Allsopp, the eldest daughter of Baron Hindlip, chairman of Christies, who got her start in TV via her art history degree, which she studied at ... Christies.
But sure. More austerity.

This is CNN, a channel I really enjoy when I'm in the US. I wonder if American journalists are aware of how completely insane they look to the rest of the world. How utterly detached their narrative is from everyone else's. edition.cnn.com/2025/08/19/p...

I hope other companies are paying attention to the M&S situation. They bring a vexatious complaint with no substance at all, you issue a cowardly apology and completely sell out your employee, they reject your apology and call for a boycott anyway. You can't reason with unreasonable people.

Not for the first time I am begging angry people to put the phone down, walk through actual streets, go to actual pubs, stand on the touch line at local sports clubs, browse Saturday markets, chat with ramblers on footpaths and rediscover beauty & contentedness.

Blocking Nazis, trolls, and fascists doesn’t make it an “echo chamber.” People need to stop gaslighting us into thinking we have to listen to Nazis and debate trolls in order to be informed.

Can we PLEASE stop naming this bullsh*t "alternative *medicine*"? It's not medicine. It's like naming alchemy "alternative chemistry" or flat-earth crap "alternative geography". If it has no basic science behind it, it belongs before the 18th century. It's middle ages superstition, nothing else.
