I’ve not met a single person in the club circuit or the industry who has a nice thing to say about Bill Maher. Anyone who has ever encountered him says he’s insufferable. I know one of his friends and the closest thing to a compliment they could muster is “Bill’s Bill.”

“Danielle Smith doesn’t care about Canadian sovereignty, and it shows whenever she speaks to the American far-right, which is unfortunately often. Her actions — always immature, often childish and completely unacceptable for any Canadian politician — have proven her unworthy of her office.”

NDP MP @jennykwan.bsky.social was among the 30-person delegation Israel turned away from visiting the West Bank.

But when she called me, I Iearned why her staff told me the incident was worse than what's been reported -- and that TWO Israeli officials laid hands on an MP.

China has brought millions out of poverty. The US has not – by choice.

The UK is following the US model. Wealth concentrated in fewer hands. 24m can't attain minimum standard of living, real average wage unchanged since 2008, public services eroded, profiteering is rife.
