My claim to fame is that many years ago a photo of my cat and dog went viral. Charlie the dog died two years, Maggie the cat died yesterday at the ripe old age of 17. Maggie was a proper character and I will miss her dearly

When the minimum wage was introduced in 1999, for someone on full-time earnings it was around 22% of the higher rate tax threshold (£7,020:£32,355) .
Today it is over 50% (£25,760: £50,270).
This is not a liberal free-market economy, it is neosocialism

Today, @thenerve_news publishes a landmark years-long investigation into what may be the biggest online influence campaign ever.
There is credible evidence Israel interfered in UK elections using Kate Middleton to spread anti-Muslim hate.

These fools think the counterfactual would have involved zero deaths. Truth is he probably saved way more lives than he ended. The man is a hero and I’m glad he slept soundly.
"I"ve never lost a night’s sleep."
This man dropped the atomic bomb on Hiroshima. When he died, he asked for no funeral and no headstone.
Watch his face when the interviewer brings up the people who called him a killer.
Paul Tibbets was 30. The night before the mission, he named the plane after his mother, Enola Gay.
On August 6, 1945, tens of thousands of people in Hiroshima died in a single moment. By the end of the year, the count was around 140,000.
Asked how he wanted to be remembered, he said: “I did what I was told to do, and I was damn proud of it.”
His answer never changed. No regrets. This was war. He didn’t start it.
He died in 2007 at 92. He was afraid protesters would turn his grave into a target, so his ashes were scattered over the English Channel.
At what number of dead does "I followed orders" stop being an answer?
Make boomers do it instead, they wank off at the thought of national service anyway. Young people are too busy trying to pay off their student loans or save money for a home worth 9 times their salary.
Some political ideas age better than others.
When I proposed a new model of national service in the 2024 election, it quickly became the butt of jokes. Now France and Germany are taking steps towards it, and in Sweden places are highly prized by teenagers and employers alike.
What I’d seen as prime minister – the constant probing by our enemies, which didn’t distinguish between civilian and military – had convinced me we would soon need some kind of resilience corps. The cyberattacks on European supermarkets, with fridges remotely set to 50C so the food spoils, show this is our new reality. Defence spending won’t stop that. Responsibility for our security can’t just be subcontracted to the military.
In a world in which the government feels obliged to tell us to stockpile tinned goods, our culture needs to change. It will take more than well-stocked cupboards to meet this moment.
A new, universal national service scheme should offer people options. A few might join a small, selective military cadre. Others could serve with search and rescue, St John Ambulance or Meals on Wheels, or train in cybersecurity.
It would make us more resilient and more cohesive, give the almost one million young people not in education, employment or training a sense of purpose, and remind us all that citizenship brings responsibilities as well as rights.

Capital investment is nearly always underfunded when it’s owned by the state. There are always more pressing, political demands on the public purse — like a pay rise for nurses instead of electrifying a line. That was the story of British Rail under Labour/Tory governments, of state-owned Network Rail — and it will be with so-called Great British Rail. Indeed the Transport dept budget is already being raided. So predictable. So obvious from history rail these past 70 years. But people never learn.

The sad irony of this is:
- the Leeds data centre is estimated to create 1,000+ jobs across the region
- its water needs are roughly equivalent to 5 moderately busy car washes
- and... it will use rainwater gathering, so a decent chunk of water needs are covered anyway
Objecting to it essentially makes the region poorer, for no real gain.

He is a convicted terrorist
He is the former right-hand man of hate preacher Anjem Choudary,
He called for the slaughter of British troops and was jailed for four years in 2007 after demanding that soldiers return from Iraq in body bags
He was convicted for a second time in 2016 after pledging allegiance to Islamic State
He now writes books inciting readers to train for Jihad, forbidding women from leaving their homes without their husbands’ permission and describing Jews as ‘disbelievers’ who are ‘destined for hellfire’
The British state decides this is the sort of person who should get a council flat over the other 341,000 households on London’s waiting list for council housing
Tiktok terrorist who prayed for British soldiers to be slaughtered is being housed in £300,000 three-bed council flat in north London trib.al/JU5sgY0

A one-way ticket to the past. Nationalised rail services are poorer than when they were private.
This is what happens when Labour politicians try to run things.
🚨 NEW: Labour MPs have summoned c2c rail bosses to explain the worsening train delays following nationalisation
Since being nationalised, the proportion of trains arriving on time has plummeted from 94% to just 71.5%

Now Russell Brand's been convicted of rape, we need to talk about Sylvie Berki. Because she can't speak for herself.
In 2014, Ms Berki said she'd been assaulted by Russell Brand.
But if she talks about it, even now, she risks jail.
Can we all take a moment to pay our disrespects to Bear Grylls for enabling Russell Brand’s Christian grift

Funny that Angela Rayner didn’t get 14 years in prison for dodging her tax obligations….
Exc: Evasion of Angela Rayner’s new “tourist tax” will carry a maximum penalty of 14 years in prison.
The measures, set out in a bill published on Wednesday, target accommodation providers in England who evade the proposed overnight visitor levy.
The new legislation is also designed to prevent property owners offering “mates’ rates” to friends that would reduce the amount of tax paid on temporary stays.

Take a moment today to think about the courage of Joshua Wong.
A young activist who’s only crime is defending the liberty of others in Hong Kong.
Today for his courage he’s been punished with 10 years in prison by the Chinese Communist Party.
He could have run. He could have lived in exile. He chose courage.
