Rutger Bregman correctly public identified Trump in a lecture. Trump threatened to sue the BBC if they quoted it.

So I am quoting it and invite you to do the same.

Trump is the most corrupt president in American history.

BBC Rebuked for Censoring Historian Who Called Trump ‘Most Openly Corrupt President in American History’ | Common Dreams
The Dutch historian said the BBC's edit of his lecture shows what happens "when institutions start censoring themselves out of fear of those in power."

Punch some of your local hospitality businesses into the official business rates valuation calculator. All you need is their postcode.

You may be shocked to see by how much some will see their rateable value go up in April 2026. (Some will more than double.)

Quick analysis of The Times today:
Wall to wall negative coverage of Labour’s budget. An editorial that tuts about lack of growth but takes no responsibility. And a double page ad to join Farage/Reform.
Absolutely no analysis on how rightwing ideology - including Brexit - has been utterly ruinous.

Farage is trying the age old politicians default now, of, it's just because you don't like my poltics

It's a bit more than that Nigel

It's about values isn't it?

Not the pathetic stance of, you just don't like me

There are reasons we don't like you Nigel, very good reasons

The most interesting OBR paper yesterday was the one that didn't leak - the justification for their productivity downgrade. There's a very important assumption in it that could make or break the government.

The OBR says that the VAT charge on private schools has raised more money than expected because fewer pupils have gone into the state sector

Never believe the Tories and their media.

Brexit has cost each and every one of us £3,700 a year.

But instead of solving the problem, Labour are using Brexit as an excuse to raise your taxes.

My message ahead of the Budget: Stop blaming Brexit and start fixing it!

I’m beyond proud of Peter Ettedgui speaking out about Farage and the vile antisemitic abuse he endured. I first heard Peter’s story nearly 20 years ago when Farage was a virtual nobody. It’s not a hit job. Just the truth

I wonder how many in Labour's inner circle realise they're part of the last ever Labour government?

Letting Reform in when a different direction was possible but deliberately ignored is a sin 1000x worse than student fees were for the LibDems. Voters will never forgive it.

Why?

Because this isn’t just another social network.
