You absolutely should be reading Tom’s books but try to buy them in such a way that he will be paid.

Unbound have screwed over enough people without it continuing.
Quick note to anyone thinking of buying my books: please purchase the new Swift Press versions, NOT the relatively small number of Unbound versions still knocking about, & being sold by OOINYA. Unbound stopped paying me for my work early in 2024 and I will never see a penny for these books.

Every time I regain a glimmer of hope for humanity, I see something like this which suggests that people are willing to spend precious moments of their short existence to listen to these three having a conversation while the most meatheaded of the group destroys a perfectly decent chicken.

So, happy 50th anniversary to Melody Maker’s review of Bohemian Rhapsody: “Queen, with a suitably baroque vocal orchestration, contrive to approximate the demented fury of the Balham Amateur Operatic Society performing The Pirates of Penzance”

Tucker Carlson is a rightwing conspiracy theorist and Putin apologist who was sacked by FOX.... yes FOX

BUT The Spectator is happy to pay him to talk down our capital city... despite it thriving and crime falling.

Whose side are you on Mr Gove?

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.

Here is David Coburn, the former UKIP MEP who was mentioned in WhatsApp messages between the traitor Nathan Gill and his Russian paymaster, saying there was cash available for Coburn.
Needless to say, I have never met the man.

Of course, it goes without saying that the Roman state had a welfare system from around 20AD with corn distribution (Cicero mocks it for being cynical!) And a taxation system so established that even Jesus told people to pay it.

She's just incapable of knowingly being right.

How many people can put more than 1k a month away anyway? Putting the rest into a s&s ISA hardly a massive gamble
Fascinating that the cash ISA limit is the most unpopular item in the budget. I would have thought it would be unpopular but not more so than e.g. freezing tax thresholds.

Australia recorded ZERO cases of cervical cancer in women under 25 for the first time since they started tracking the cancer in the 80s.

This is the power of vaccines.

The HPV vaccine is extremely effective at preventing cancer.

Viruses can be oncogenic. Get your vaccines and protect yourself!
newsGP - Australia set for world-first cervical cancer elimination
Vaccination programs have played a key role, and GPs remain ‘instrumental’ in boosting screening rates to reach the 2035 target.

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have developed a heteromultivalent nanogel capable of killing some of the most dangerous bacteria known to medicine- with over 99.9% effectiveness against P. aeruginosa. It also showed strong antibacterial effects against other major threats, including E. coli and MRSA.

On the train. Saw someone that I recognise but can't remember who they are. Infuriating. I used to have a very good memory for people. Quite alarming to find a gap where there used to be a bunch of information.
