Kinda gas how ‘honesty in politics’ is the big deal in the UK right now for so many people who couldn’t give the proverbial “two fks” about it when Boris Johnson was leading the country… 🤷🏻♂️

If you rename Herzog Park while leaving up a statue of a Nazi-collaborationist who died on a bloody Nazi U-Boat, then, frankly, you're just giving an awful lot of justification to accusations thrown at this state.
It's dumb past words.

UK Labour’s decision to not be a Remain party will surely go down as one of the great political errors of the last decade anywhere. Getting slated for a lack of economic growth while they have one hand tied behind their back.

I’m always fascinated that these articles re: planning objections rarely carry much detail as to what the nature of the objection(s) are and who precisely is doing the objection. There should be no expectation of privacy here.

Binance Chief Executive Richard Teng said on Friday bitcoin's sharp drop in the past month was the result of investors deleveraging cryptocurrency holdings and risk aversion in line with that seen in most major asset classes.

Does the Irish broadcast media still see Peter McVerry as an expert on all things Housing Strategy, Policy and implementation I wonder???
A Dáil committee has heard that a major homelessness charity used donors’ money to build an enclosure for peacocks. The Public Accounts Committee was told the Peter McVerry Trust had been “on the brink of collapse” before a government bailout two years ago.

“Commentator of the year” - Jesus wept 🤦♂️
It’s hard to read this stuff from doctors without cringing at how wildly out of touch it sounds (and how little self-awareness). £100k+ income is, to most of the public, beyond our dreams. Entitlement and class privilege is not the best way to win people over to your cause!

The only revelation left to us is that the federal grand jury didn't actually exist and DOJ prosecutors simply decided to pretend that it does.
🚨BREAKING: Federal prosecutors admitted Wednesday that the grand jury handling the criminal case against former FBI Director James Comey never reviewed or voted on the final indictment used to charge him — a virtually unprecedented revelation that could topple the entire case.
In Stunning Admission, DOJ Says Grand Jury Never Saw Indictment Against Comey

Another SF/SD/LAB/PBP sleeper in FG. Absolutely ridiculous that Irish political media continues to refer to FG as a “centre right” party. There’s nothing remotely centrist about them now.
New Minister for Foreign Affairs, Trade and Defence Helen McEntee has said that the Occupied Territories Bill will be one of the very first things she will raise with her departmental officials when she meets them later today.
