The 15 richest people in America saw their collective wealth jump nearly $1 trillion during Trump's year back in office.
Many of them were standing alongside Trump at his inauguration one year ago today.

We should stop the boats because it's dangerous, and we should stop the scapegoating of immigrants because it's wrong and cruel.

I've always felt that Johnson and Farage put self-interest over the national interest - hence their dallying with Putin and his oligarchs. But directly colluding with a foreign government to take down the BBC feels like an act of supreme treachery

Calling English a 'rip-off degree' is one of the most blatant exhibitions of personal barbarism I've ever seen. You've demonstrated nothing but the poverty of your own mind.

No immigrant has ever sacked me, or cut my wages, or offshored my job, or closed my hospital, or stopped my mum's disability benefits, or crashed the economy.
Those things were all done by white English men who went to Oxford and wore a nice suit.

A word on immigration. Don't prejudge this, just listen to the data, and then consider what the solution is.
The UK has a falling birth rate. This means that - unless things change - each generation will be 25% smaller than the one before.

It's an interesting article. Like Tom, I ended up losing over £20k, the result of 2-3 years of work. I asked Boundless to return the book's rights to me, and they said they would - then didn't. Now, when you buy Decade In Tory from Amazon, who knows where the profits go? Boundless are bust...
