Ok, I get Derrick having no sympathy.Given his history, why would Anyone expect it? But he appears to be celebrating paying to deport somebody who presumably up until now has been productive within the US economy & paying taxes? That I struggle to understand from somebody who was helping run the US

Great to see a ‘Tonka,’ still flying and looks like @luftwaffe.bundeswehr.de might have done #Malta proud by staying on and doing the airshow display trashed by yesterday’s weather. (Shame the pic doesn’t do the Tornado and Typhoon justice)!
Now where are the Red Arrows?

Another great read from Mr R and spoiler alert - there’s a little known fact about his own role in Eurovision!
Born behind the Iron Curtain, it's back. The Intervision Song Contest has been brought back to life by the Kremlin. My piece for BBC News about politics and pop. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I don’t doubt tosh like this happened before social media, but did it really need to be placed on steroids by the likes of Elon Musk?

Wages of unionized workers are 13% higher than their nonunion counterparts.
But unions also set a higher pay standard that all workers enjoy.
In high-union-density states, median household income is $12,000 higher than in low-union-density states.
This is why unions are vital.

Interesting conversation going on in Musk’s playground.
A confluence between those in favour of this proposition proponents of “parliamentary sovereignty.”
Interesting the stand out was a self declared ‘fascist,’ who understood having a wealthy foreign businessman run the country, wasn’t compatible.

Let me guess. This is just “freedom of speech,” as far as #SpaceKaren is concerned. I mean the follow- up is people should follow MPs to their home, so the man who got upset when people used apps that showed the whereabout of his private jet will be just fine!

“I once got into a strangers car,” and it’s the fault of the app that sent me the reg, make and model of the car!
Maybe the real excuse is that “their drivers all look the same” and let’s be honest, that says rather more about the user than their drivers..

I do love journalists who cannot comprehend the English language.
If this is a bar on criticism of the listed topics, this chap must think they also want people not to be critical of child sex abuse.
The act, of course, is intended to hamper the promotion/facilitation of activities on the list.

Maybe the lady’s point @mrjamesob.bsky.social is that while the billions have gone to investors, she’s the one being asked to help customers in trouble?

Why you shouldn’t go on social media A, in the middle of the night and B when you have little knowledge of what you are talking about. This, another prime example after recent events in the UK.

I struggle with posts advertising material behind paywalls. On sites where analysis and opinions are shared freely, they always make me think they are oddly out of place.
