Tax policy on the British left is pure "anti-bedtime left". Bizarre idea that you can have a big social democratic welfare state without everyone contributing properly www.economist.com/britain/2025...

Left wing version: “The Jews are unique among all the peoples of the world in having no right to any state anywhere, under any borders whatsoever, including the one they already have, established by refugees after the Holocaust.

Shout out to all the dads who went to the shed 45 minutes ago “to root out that extension lead”, haven’t been seen since, and are now into the third chapter of their new book and the fourth glass of port.

Thank you @reuters.com for blowing the whistle on World Central Kitchen's Hamas employees. Shame on everyone who blamed Israel for attacking WCK staff, when in reality it they were terrorists all along. #Hamas #Gaza
