Banksy. His newest artwork is being investigated as criminal damage. I'm incandescent with rage. Who decided to destroy a potentially multi million pound art work then call the artist a criminal?

Anyone thinking of voting for Reform should see this.
Farage wants private health to replace the NHS.
This is what we'd face in the UK.
My health insurance premiums will more than double in January. I pay a little less than $500/month for my current silver plan.

I just reapplied and my new premium will be $1062/month.

And don’t forget: I still have a co-pay for every visit and pay for prescriptions.

It is odd, breast cancer has screening and that's roughly 1 in 7 women over a lifetime.
In the UK, roughly 1 in 8 to 1 in 6 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer over their lifetime, and around 12,000 men die from it each year.

But apparently, the UK government thinks that's ok.

October 2019, around the time Nathan Gill was taking Russian bribes, Nigel Farage and the Brexit party voted against an EU resolution to stop Russian election meddling

The Party said claims of interference were 'baseless propaganda and scare stories.

There is a war in Europe. The US isn't sure which side to back.

And the UK is pissing around on the sidelines, where Putin put us in 2016, with help from UKIP.

Labour: this is your moment and you are shaking in the wings, afraid . What are you?

I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture.

They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1

Not the only one. Too many seem to have forgotten how bloody awful that decade and a half was.
Am I the only one who's wondering why Mel Stride, Kemi Badenoch & all the other fiscal geniuses from the @conservatives.bsky.social didn't manage to introduce all their financial boosts & growth measure suggestions they've shrieked about over the last 24hrs during the period 2010-2024?🤨

Newmarket MP Matt Hancock gave a £37bn Covid testing contract to Jockey Club director Dido Harding, who subcontracted it to Grand National sponsor Randox, employer of Tory MP Owen Paterson, whose late wife chaired Aintree racecourse. That's how the Tories handled the pandemic.
