Like the Tories, the law does not seem to apply to Republicans.
Wow — Casada wasn’t the only Tennessee Republican getting a Trump pardon. @RepHarshbarger got him to pardon her health care fraud husband too.
Kelsey, Casada, Harshbarger… Tennessee Republicans working those pardons hard.
The law no longer applies to them in the Trump era.

Most councils have made the connection between anti social behaviour among young people and the lack of facilities to offer them interesting alternative behaviours. No surprise a Deform council is cutting costs for the sake of cutting costs.
This is a desperately sad story, one doubtless repeated across the country, but it’s also desperately stupid:
“an independent report … estimated the centre is saving the council more than £500,000 a year in costs that include services in mental health, youth justice and social care”

Last youth centre in one of England’s most deprived coastal areas faces closure
Pie Factory Music in Ramsgate, Kent, runs creative projects and provides a range of support services, but the building that houses the centre is due to be sold off in February

Once every 20 years or so, the director-general of the BBC is forced to resign for being insufficiently rightwing. Alastair Milne in 1987. Greg Dyke in 2004. Tim Davie in 2025. The great irony is that the BBC was in all cases profoundly biased towards established power. But just not biased enough …
