Reminds me of the football hooliganism documentary which had a great clip of some thug with a huge bulldog tattoo on his chest and Great Britian in huge letters. No ragrets

I agree…saw it yesterday. I thought those aspects of white supremacy in the film were very well explored and really disturbing. I thought it was going to be a shoot em up film, was not looking forward to it at all. Penn played such a revolting character, quite an achievement.

As a communications professional my advice would have been to ask ‘how would you feel if it was spread across the pages of Private Eye’? If it fails the Private Eye test, then it fails. It doesn’t matter what advice you took, what assurances you have. The media decides if it’s a story and that’s it

So P&O parts company with auditors @kpmguk.bsky.social opting for a tiny 4-person firm. Prof @premnsikka.bsky.social is right. The public, of whom P&O transports >4m a year, will likely want reassurances that it’s financially sound www.theguardian.com/business/202...

If Starmer doesn’t solve the immigration crisis (which is what it is) he’s toast and he knows it. The opinion polls reflect the public view that ‘it’s got to stop’. If you want Farage as PM then tell Starmer to do nothing.
