So true. Also, many of the Americans doing literally nothing about Epstein’s American ‘associates’ are precisely the ones lying about Europe & particularly the UK being overrun with child-rapists. It’s insane.

so crazy to me that a woman asked trump if he has any words for epstein's victims and he said "you as a young woman should smile more." it will go nowhere bc republicans refuse to hold trump accountable, but it's still pretty crazy.

As the world finally punches back, was this the week Donald Trump went too far? | Jonathan Freedland
The US president took his bullying doctrine to Davos and hit a wall of opposition. If this creates a new western alliance against him, all to the good, says Guardian columnist Jonathan Freedland

Suggested EU response: - US airbases now represent an armed presence, inside our borders, of a nation that is openly threatening to invade our territory - Withdraw the threat or we have no choice but to close those bases - This turns USA from a global power to a regional one, overnight 1/5

Huge respect to the papers for finding both an 88 year old worried about the tax bill on her 6 bedroom Kensington house and a 20 year old fretting about only being able to save £12k a year tax free. Top work all around. These are not easy case studies to find.

Just because it's reached the 100,000 threshold, doesn't mean anything will happen. So keep signing and sharing, because we need to show MPs that there's a huge demand.

your article on prostate cancer screening really should have been balanced with an interview with a clinician who treats prostate cancer and can properly explain the pros and cons of screening, early intervention and the risk of harm without benefit

A woman who lives in Dubai & never actually watches the BBC tells us who should be its next Director General.😳 She then tells us who should be chief of an NHS she never uses. Not only that, she comments about Govt. departments that don’t actually govern her! SmallTalk TV! 😂

If we're talking about bias, why do BBC politics programmes, from Politics Live to the Laura Kuennsberg Show, still always begin with a look at the newspaper front pages, which are overwhelmingly biased in one direction. Helps frame the entire news agenda and debate in their favour

The biggest far-right demonstration in British history is a gruesome reminder of how much trouble we are in. Since the financial crash, the direction of travel for the far right across the West has only been in one direction - and that is up.
