This was Christmas Eve.

My elderly Dad sat in a hospital corridor.
Not a ward.
A corridor.

Around him
mental health crises,
pregnancy complications,
people with dementia,
sepsis,
and a prisoner under guard.

It’s loud.
Chaotic.
Relentless.

Our reaction to #Budget2026
Our members will be hit by the extended freeze in the income tax threshold. We welcome the scrapping of the 2-child limit but more must be done on the cost-of-living crisis and on the unfairness of our tax system.

Who was it who said "The Rage-Bait To Revenue Pipeline Needs To Be Studied..."

Well on this week's "FAR-RIGHT WATCH!" we did exactly that.

Behold! A look at the angry, enterprising right-wingers who've turned hate into disposable income.

I'll be 61 in a couple of months, just wanna say that I am absolutely loving Wet Legs debut album "Wet Leg" and still working on their second album "moisturiser".

Not sure why but I am enjoying them far too much to over analyze it.
