This is Robbie Gibb’s BBC declaration. He says he owns 100% of the Jewish Chronicle. If that is the case, where did the money come from??

What potential conflicts of interests does he have? When is he going to answer these questions? And who is going to ask them?

Paul Singer is notorious because he held Argentina to ransom for 15 years tanking its economy but he’s done so much more beside. A Trump-donating Iran hawk & Netanyahu stan. And a major media investor.

If @arusbridger.bsky.social’s sources are right..Gibb has some pretty massive qs to answer.

In what was a very punchy piece of reporting, @arusbridger.bsky.social & @prospectmagazine.co.uk named the man they believe actually owns it: Paul Singer, a notorious vulture capitalist & owner of Elliott Management. Aka Robbie Gibb’s overlord

Pandora sounds like some springy worms a school buddy kept in a can. Right up until the first time he didn't keep them in the can.

There was an unforeseen benefit, though. A longstanding local phrase of four words we all still use in multiple scenarios:

Can open. Worms everywhere.

*puts moderately less facetious hat on*

I'm predominantly pro advances in DNA understanding and application. But shhhh, don't tell anyone.

Quiet cars should each come with a metal bucket for public use called the snory echo chamber helmet.

One who awakens wearing the helmet is instantly demoted to the noisy car.

I don't know how the maths works.

1 Carole = crack team of 5.
2 Caroles = crack team of 10?

Or does it go exponential?

I say "caretaker", we've not seen much care taken, have we?
