Just been for another job interview, I think I did well , couldn't do anymore. Demonstrated relevant experience and enthusiasm but didn't get that vibe at the end from one of them. The job was exactly the same as my old job from a year ago too. But always the same story. Fed up with it.

Even in Italy, they are talking about the Green Party Leader.
Se torniamo indietro di un milione di minuti, arriviamo al 2023. Tornando indietro di un miliardo di minuti, invece, arriviamo all'Impero romano: questa è la portata della disuguaglianza economica odierna.

Zack Polanski ha ragione: tassiamo i ricchi.

Still reeling from the Stanford report on Brexit. Reduced GDP by up to 8% and investment by as much as 18%. The UK Treasury would have £40 billion more each year if Britain had remained in the EU. Devastating self-immolation.

A mother and her 15 year old autistic son are reunited after nearly 50 days apart.

Emmanuel Garcia went missing, and rather than check missing person’s reports, Houston PD called ICE.

ICE sent him to the Office of Refugee Resettlement and his mom has been fighting to get him back ever since.

Workers pay National Insurance on their wages, which reduces their take-home pay. But people who live off investment income, from stocks, property, or other assets, pay no equivalent tax.

Rachel Reeves says there’s a “hole” in the public finances.

A new decade-long Brexit study explains it:

a 6–8% hit to GDP – that's £180bn-£240bn a year – means less tax, less investment and less money for everything else.

Brexit made Britain poorer. Much poorer.

The UK is a strongly pro-choice country with 86% of Britons wanting abortion to be legal in all or most cases. But the US anti-choice movement has been investing heavily into campaigns in Britain, and Nigel Farage’s Reform UK party seems to be support the interference.
The worrying rise of US anti-abortion rhetoric is in full force - how deep is Reform UK's involvement?
Money is pouring into anti-abortion campaigns in Britain, and it seems Nigel Farage’s party isn’t pushing back…
