Nigel Farage says something needs to be done about about Second Homes to stop them from destroying tourist villages.

It's another lie, because Farage has a Second, Third and even Fourth Home.

And he will never tax himself.

The thing I'm "stunned" about is why this isn't the biggest domestic news item on every flipping platform

Always find it odd when people say exceptional is a good thing - it just means it is not the norm. On the contrary it could mean Trumps health is very poor.

You might have heard of 'dark kitchens' when a row of sheds in a car park churn out food for Deliveroo. They're unpopular and low margin. So the next big thing in London food is 'host kitchens' where local pubs, restaurants and kebab shops cook for big brands. www.londoncentric.media/p/host-kitch...
Why your next upmarket Deliveroo might be made by your local kebab shop

Academics and university staff being put on leave because of coordinated campaigns by right wing groups accusing them of criticising Charlie Kirk. I must admit I find the hypocrisy under the current US administration re free speech utterly outrageous.

Good to see the Conservative Party committed to keeping the deficit down by *checks notes* spending £2 billion giving tax breaks for private education, creating a massive new deportation force and pledging to maintain pensioner benefits.

Thanks to the Daily Mail for correcting an article, which wrongly said that Korean researchers claimed they had found proof that the Covid vaccines had raised the risk of getting cancer.

As we explain, the researchers said no such thing.

🔥 Finally an EU leader says it out loud:

“We have been incredibly naive in entrusting our democratic space to social networks that are controlled either by large American entrepreneurs or large Chinese companies, whose interests are not at all the survival or proper functioning of our democracies.”

This just a few weeks after many of Robinson’s supporters were doing Nazi salutes and shouting Nazi slogans at his march in London. Absolutely insane stuff.

This Israeli government decision to host Tommy Robinson will widen the growing gulf between the Netanyahu government and the British public, including the broad majority of Jews in Britain (3/4 of whom dsapproved of Netanyahu, before this new link to this anti-Muslim racist UK far right convict).
