Imagine you were the richest man in the world. You could have anything you wanted, go anywhere you wished, do whatever took you fancy. How would you spend your weekend? Depriving the poorest people in the world of food and healthcare and boasting about it?

I've just shut up the East Wing, reduced Simmonds to a 5 day week, and sacked Rogers the chauffeur for much the same reason.
Seems I'll have to drive the children back to school in the Bentley myself this Easter term.

Farage’s refusal to condemn Musk’s outrageous statements shows total unfitness for public office. But @bbclaurak.bsky.social fails to hold him to account & allows whole interview to be on his terms. No focus on Reform’s divisive policies & no effective challenge to his dangerous insinuations

For years Nigel Farage has banged on about billionaire George Soros influencing the political climate in Britain and the rest of the world.
Now - Farage's Reform is poised to take a rumoured £100 million from Elon Musk and the right wing media doesn't bat an eyelid.
