If no one is jailed for this, it'll happen again, and again, and again.
And indeed, makes politics look like a career opportunity for grifting criminals.

Ever since I finished Question Time, Reform have massively been on the attack.

Including a rant from Richard Tice entirely designed to distract from Reform and Russia.

Everyone should know about Nathan Gill, the bribes from Russia and the link to Reform.

ICE Is Sending People to a Prison in Africa’s Only Absolute Monarchy, ESWATINA, a “legal black hole”
The US has agreed to pay Eswatini $5.1 million to take in up to 160 so-called “third-country nationals” ie Cuba, Jamaica, Laos, Vietnam, and Yemen. These people have no legal recourse.

Private Eye offers up an excellently scornful commentary on the relentless polling. It’s become ridiculous and has oversimplified our politics to dangerous levels of stupid and irresponsible.

SHOCK POLL:
NIGEL FARAGE WILL BE PM TOMORROW
IN an amazing poll conducted
by The Pointless Polling Company, it was revealed that voters' intentions
may well change over the next three and a half years and at present it's 100 percent impossible to guess what the next government might look like.
However, 99 percent of journalists
agree that it would be much more fun if we had an election tomorrow and everybody resigned and everything was chaos and Farage had a go at being PM, just for the hell of it, because it was so much fun when
Brexit happened and then the government kept falling every five minutes and we could write endless pieces about (cont. p94)

It won't. It's just a stop in hostilities and swap if hostages and detainees.
Israel still wants to wipe out Palestinians and Palestinians will still defend themselves.

There's probable been some grubby backroom deal: force israel to stop then you get Nobel prize.
Israel, of course will resume genocide immediately after.

So, you should never make a deal with a convicted crim and child rapist.
