Since, despite the fact Labour are going to continue cuts overall, there are going to a lot of people losing their minds about benefits. I'm going to repeat the challenge I offer in this video which is if you think benefits are too generous: quit your job. youtu.be/nmXHZkwWsD8

I mean the thing about trying to govern with no political ambitions is that your opponents can just project whatever they want onto it and there's nothing you can really do to stop them
The predictable crushing uniformity of the coverage of this Budget tells you an awful lot about the priorities of those papers, and also why there's actually quite a lot to praise in it bylinetimes.com/2025/11/26/t...

Real good show overall and the C2 is off to a FANTASTIC start, a few surprising results that immediately have you reeled in to see where it goes, best time of the year when these matches hit #livewrestlingskeets

that coast to coast was so so good, it looked like a proper kill shot rather than just lightly catching the guy - knight's aerial offence is so good, like that flying lariat he hits, he gets such a good connection on everything that the impact looks amazing #livewrestlingskeets

mox needs to shift to the d'arce choke over the bulldog choke, it's SO fucking good as a pro wrestling finish and does what mox tried to do with the bulldog choke - the struggle and eventual choke out looks so much better #livewrestlingskeets

Moxley vs Dorada is a very fun style clash. They're using their differences as the point instead of trying to mesh into creating the smoothest mush possible.
