Michael Prescott, who refused to answer all media questions until his DCMS appearance, spent 90 minutes in front of the committee – and wasn't asked *once* about his own report misquoting Donald Trump. What a farce.

Went to the cinema yesterday and got the anti-stabbing advert then the full-length version of the Waitrose Christmas advert, which seems specifically designed to make you want to stab everyone involved in it.
Make your mind up, cinema advertisers!

The evidence in favour of 20 mph speed limits is overwhelming, cheaper insurance, less emissions, less car crashes, it saves the NHS, Police and councils money. But Gary from Port Talbot's commute now takes 42 minutes instead of 40 so it simply must go.

He was a Conservative party big-hitter who wrote speeches for David Cameron and worked with Boris Johnson before he suddenly jumped ship. He talks family, flags and why Nigel Farage is ‘top dog’

VERY funny that Labour are being pointlessly cruel and haemorrhaging support from their base and yet none of what they're offering is ever going to be enough for the people whose approval they're seeking, WHO could have predicted it

So Elon Musk's AI engages in Holocaust denial now, and there are still democratic governments with active X accounts.
Calling on the Irish government and state agencies to immediately close their X accounts. Continued use of a fascist agitator's social media site is both incompatible with democratic values and immoral.

If only overrated genocide denier Noam Chomsky had stuck to his decades long practice of regularly and repeatedly denying genocides as they happened purely on the basis of a Campist mentality, and not wasted time hanging around with rich nonces, his reputation wouldn’t be suffering as much now.
MIT's famous linguistic professor Noam Chomsky was in regular and close contact with sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, according to a review of emails published by the U.S. House Oversight Committee. In the documents, Chomsky described Epstein as a "highly valued friend."

A former UK prime minister held responsible for tens of thousands of deaths while the US president calls for elected politicians to be hanged.

A jolt of a reminder that law and policy are ultimately about life and death.

And politicians are often not up to dealing with such things.
