Nigel Farage is going to "save pubs" by cutting 5p off the price of a pint of beer...
The £3 billion cost will be funded by reinstating the two-child benefit limit.
This might be the worst policy anyone has ever come up with.

Weirdly, the Epstein files also seems to include loads of cut-and-paste news articles, people’s bios and acres of general, broad random material.
That explanation notwithstanding, both QI and 8 Out of 10 Cats are in the Epstein files.

Yes, of course Epstein had extensive Israeli connections, but the Russian ones are just evidentially more extensive — that was where the money and trafficable women were

Great scoop by Byline. Farage was paid by Trump crypt adviser who worked with Russia operative Paul Manafort.
He received payment from David Bailey, who collaborated with the convicted fraudster behind the Trump-Russia influence scandal.
This should be all over the media.

I'm worried that the broader public isn't really understanding the Epstein Files. The problem isn't that everyone in the files is a secret pedophile, it's that all the people are corresponding with him because they *don't care that he's a pedophile*. It's a story of elite impunity.
You can look at the Epstein files and conclude that only bad people have billions of dollars, but I think it’s also possible that having billions of dollars cauterizes your humanity

I'm glad to see Reform's 'Starve a child for a pint of mild' policy isn't happening despite their and the Tories' best efforts to keep children in poverty.
