In whose interest do you use it.

Punish Prince Andrew? This is no meritocracy, I’m afraid – you get the royal family you didn’t vote for | Marina Hyde
After years of drip-fed revelations, we might as well face it. This is a family elevated by birthright: they’re stuck with him and so are we, says Guardian columnist Marina Hyde

Why is the Telegraph obsessed with 'war'
War on wealthy, pensioners, drivers, farmers etc. What is wrong with what used to be a respectable newspaper?

Ever since I finished Question Time, Reform have massively been on the attack.
Including a rant from Richard Tice entirely designed to distract from Reform and Russia.
Everyone should know about Nathan Gill, the bribes from Russia and the link to Reform.

For those who claim Connelly is a political prisoner, framed for speaking her mind.
Unsurprisingly, the sentence is entirely justified, and bear in mind that she pleaded guilty and did not risk a trial.

One of the most bizarre responses to leaving the EU going badly… is to deny that it’s actually happened.
If you open a door, expecting a unicorn to be behind it… and there’s no unicorn… then the oddest response is to state that you’ve not yet opened the door.

The 50% drop in net migration just announced will surprise precisely nobody who has been paying attention to the issue, as opposed to exploiting and lying about it for clicks & votes. I doubt the stats will change the toxic narratives of the latter group, though.

The latest from The Wall Street Journal’s editorial board:
To die is to disengage with the world
It can happen in the blink of an eye as your car crashes
It can happen gradually as your joints stiffen
Or as your mind stiffens
And leads you to a smaller different world
Before you leave this one.
