If you'd like to see more of the Caribbean Coast of Costa Rica that they didn't manage to show on Celebrity Race Across The World, we have a stunning holiday rental set in the hills of secondary rainforest near to the Panama border. DM me if you'd like details.

“Did Nathan Gill ever say anything you disagree with in return for his bribes from a Kremlin stooge?” “Did you, in your roles as his boss, friend, mentor & party leader, ever question his full-throated support for an enemy of the UK and if not, why not?” You can have those for nothing, lads.

My theory about the FT, and why it’s the paper I choose to read for news, is that it’s designed for a readership who are making multi-million pound decisions which require a working knowledge of what is ACTUALLY happening if they’re not to lose Leeson levels of moolah, so it can’t afford to spin.

Re-writing history is a tool of political fraudsters everywhere. Trump is its keenest proponent. The birth of the European Community, later the EU, was actually actively supported by the US. The joint, transatlantic goal was to secure peace on the Continent. It was a specific vision of FDR.

Even though he’s little better than a Russian stooge he’s right for the wrong reason. For exactly the same justification that Germany in particular & Europe in general had to break its reliance on Russian gas we have to wean ourselves off over reliance on the US, for anything. Totally unreliable now

Correct. If the birthdate field contains corrupt or mismatched data, it defaults to 1875-05-20, which serves as a flag. May 20, 1875, is the day the international standards and metrics treaty was signed. Everything is a conspiracy when you don’t know how anything works.

Why are the BBC spending licence fees on “investigating” non stories like this ? What is this anti Reeves agenda? This sort of nonsense it what you expect from certain sections of the right wing press it shouldn’t be from the supposedly impartial BBC.

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024. You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right? Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year. You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.
