I love Polski bar in London both in general and very specifically for the inherently threatening concept of "Polish Aperol" and this wholly novel spelling of "grapefruit":

Rep. @AOC: I understand that Vance believes shooting a young mother of three in the face three times is an acceptable America that he wants to live in, and I do not. That is a fundamental difference between Vance and I. I do not believe that the American people should be assassinated in the street.

Trump: "I'm a fan of Denmark too. They've been very nice to me. But the fact that they had a boat land there [Greenland] 500 years ago doesn't mean they own the land. I'm sure we had lots of boats go there also."

The widely reported statement about restricting the feature to subscribers was a hallucinatory answer by the AI Grok - not a statement by the company itself
In case you've seen the story about “grok now only generates images for paid users”, it's untrue. Apparently everyone just reported it because… it was what grok told them 🤦🏼

No, Grok hasn’t paywalled its deepfake image feature
X’s sexual deepfake machine is still running, despite Grok saying otherwise.

TAPPER: Can you rule out the US is going to take Greenland by force?
MILLER: Greenland should be part of the US. By what right does Denmark assert control over Greenland? The US is the power of NATO
T: So force is on the table?
M: Nobody is gonna fight the US militarily over future of Greenland

If you make a silly, niche social media account that somehow starts getting a large following, that doesn't mean you can suddenly pivot to giving your thoughts on world events or politics. People follow you for the silly niche thing and that's all they'll ever want from you.

This is the model of healcare that Reform favour and would like to place the NHS with.
Tice likes to call it "independent" healthcare but it amounts to one thing. If you've got no money, you don't get treated.

Excellent piece with echoes of Dickens, perfect New Year reading:
Set out six months ago to investigative some dubious evictions. Ended up writing a sprawling story spread over 450 years about London property deals, the ethics of money lending, Tommy Robinson, Barbary pirates, Jacobean earls, and wealth in the capital. www.londoncentric.media/p/henry-smit...
A Tale Of One City And Two Henry Smiths
These two London landlords are separated by four centuries — but joined by a common name and business interests.

If you work and you have a job you are taxed.
If you don't work, if you 'earn' your money by being a landlord or a stock trader, you pay half the tax or less than people who work do.
If you are a CEO, if you own a company, you pay virtually no tax at all.
Tax the rich.
