Keir Starmer's spokesman tells me that X and Grok's creation of sexual deepfakes of children is "completely unacceptable" but again won't commit to taking direct action against them, or to stop posting there. Says "all options are on the table" but suggests it's a matter for Ofcom, not Government

So, tariffs on trade. I don't really understand it but won't Trump's tariffs encourage the rest of the world to trade among themselves and leave the US out of the loop?

Now that Operation Branchform has been formally 'closed', after 4 YEARS, it's time for Polis' Scotland and the CPS to hurriedly submit their final 'eccies', for sign-off. Just how much over £2,100,000, will the final cost be, for this total fiasco? Will we be told a true figure?
