The president has illegally declared war to stop fentanyl trafficking from a country that does not traffic that drug, claiming its leader is trafficking drugs himself, the day after pardoning a former leader of a country who is a convicted drug trafficker.

The fire in Hong Kong is horrible and devastating. One thing I observe, in comparison to the Grenfell fire here, is that within three days, authorities have arrested 11 people, directors and top brass. I don't believe anyone, much less top brass, from Grenfell have faced charges, eight years later.

I’m starting to get the sense that it was a bad idea to put a deeply insecure, sexual assaulting Fox News host with a drinking problem and a crusader tattoo who said he was into war crimes in charge of the military.

If only we had some kind of person whose job it was to investigate the news and present a balanced set of challenging facts. We could call them something like “journalists”. The whole craft could be called a cool name like “journalism”.

But his retirement plans are now in “disarray” and “ruined” cos he’s going to have to find an additional £208.33 per month?
He has £2-4 million in savings/investments but claims he is not “cash-rich” and his house was his only “pension”

He says the mansion tax, and 2% dividend and savings tax increases will cost him £5-6K a year.
The mansion tax will cost £2,500 per year.
So the 2% increase in savings tax and dividend tax will cost him at least £2,500.

If we take him at his word and his house is now “only” worth £2,500,000 (he wouldn’t be putting his house in the lowest bracket for this new mansion tax would he?!😜)
That means his house would still be (around) the 15th most expensive house in Cobham, the 2nd most desirable place in Britain

He claims his house WAS worth £3mil but is now only £2.5mil and it’s lost 15% in the last 18 months “under Labour”
Right Move says sold house prices in Cobham are down 5% in the last year and 6% down from their peak in 2022.
Why would his house be down 15%?!
