This isn't even designed to wind people up and hope they share it. It's just an exploitation of Birmingham Live's privileged position on Google Discover/Apple News. The whole point is to deceive people into clicking. An industry built on total contempt for its audience.

Another datapoint for @jim.londoncentric.media's list of misleading Reach headlines:
"Alert for UK households buying Cathedral City cheese at M&S or Tesco"
The "alert" is that... other cheeses came out ahead in an independent taste test.

So one of the most viral British aggregators @PolitlcsUK (the second “i” is an L) is actually run by a former Tory MP turned lobbyist and Andrew Rosindell’s office manager? And they interview Rosindell? Such a great era.

70 per cent of the money from lifting the two-child cap is going to children whose parents are working.
A third of Universal Credit claimants are in work. People claim benefits to reduce their hours to raise children or care for parents.

Between this and the whole grok gassing up elon thing it’s been an amazing week for new features on x dot com
Grand opening, grand closing.
X quietly disabled a new feature that showed which country an account was posting from when it revealed that lots of popular right wing MAGA accounts were being run from foreign countries like India and Nigeria.

Q: Just days ago you referred to Trump as a 'despot.' Will you retract?
MAMDANI: We're both very clear on our positions & what I really appreciate about the president is our meeting focused not on places of disagreement but shared purpose we have
TRUMP: I've been called much worse than a despot

On Bob Mortimer's Desert Island Discs he's asked why nobody's doing comedy like he did anymore, which always feels like the guest is being baited into saying they'd be "cancelled", and he answers "because it's a career path now, not just lads dicking about". Refreshing perspective.
