Blues, rock, soul, jazz...it's all good. Love the US, hate Trump. UK can survive but Farage must go. 🚫No bit coin, 🚫no trading tips, 🚫no only fans, ⚠️absolutely no Reform or MAGA. Amazon can fuck off too.
I'll admit my first thought was 'excellent, pass the popcorn' but after taking a breath I realize this hate-filled, South African ignoramus really is set on destroying the UK. We've actually got plenty of our own hate filled morons that are doing that already.

Farage pours poison into the ear of the uber-toad Musk.
The toad amps it, garbles it, and then spews it forth.
Cue outcry.
Farage shrugs. Spread his palms helplessly. Says “free speech”and “What can I do?”
And happily watches the poison spread.
Rinse and repeat.

Well worth a read if you're in the UK or interested in what's happening here, the BBC and others have covered this extensively but exclusively from the viewpoint of right wingers and parents of private school kids. Good to have this kind of article as balance.
Generally Labour has made a poor start, with some rash policies, clumsy messaging and a mad embrace of Brexit. But this move is smart and fair. Private schooling damages the state sector and perpetuates them-and-us élitism. There is little charitable about it. www.theguardian.com/education/20...

Government accuses Tories and rightwing media of being ‘out of touch’, as VAT policy due to come into force
