Everybody should try to contribute to society. It's not right to just take and not give something back. There are many ways like work, paying taxes, running a business, volunteering.
The thing is though, we need to first create a society that people feel that they want to be a part of.

Are we not rapidly reaching the point where Trumps says "so what?" - he's apparently untouchable, unimpeachable. And he can pardon anyone he wants. So he can do what he wants and never gets held to account.

Somebody please explain...

Everyone is saying to release the Epstein Files, yet every now and then, usually when the demand to release the files gets louder, some emails and information suddenly appears. So where is this information coming from, and who is choosing to release it bit-by-bit?

Had one of these a couple of years. Without doubt the best vacuum cleaner we’ve ever had. Far better than the Dyson it replaced. It’s better than anything else on the market.
A genuine absolute steal. I would honestly pay three times that for it.

BBC Morning Live talking about scam phone calls and not getting suckered in. Presenter (Helen?) said “I got one yesterday. I think it was a scam. I hung up - but I had a nice chat first”

Why is nobody pointing out that the BBC is our state broadcaster? It is funded from government. Suing the BBC is effectively suing the country. You can't just close down the BBC like a dodgy newspaper.

Just got off an hour call with IT vendors, discussing our server and infrastructure requirements.
They're going to come back with a detailed analysis and proposal, full of resilience, expansion capacity and future-proofing.
We're going to order another basic server direct from Dell.

Has anyone even bothered asking Gary Lineker for his opinion?

If a self-identifying “left of centre” government with a parliamentary majority of more than a hundred seats won’t defend a vital public service institution you really have to ask why it’s in government at all.
The reaction to the Panorama edit has been nothing short of hysterical. Yes the BBC has some impartiality problems. But its biggest isn't the one you think.

New piece from me.

If they closed down the BBC, the property market would collapse. Auctioneers would go bust. Country homes would go unsold. Council tips would be inundated with old tables. Old people would have to decide for themselves if a text message was a scam. Lunchtime news presenters would have to sit down.
