I've seen several pictures like this. Life for many many people was misery and poverty under the Empire. Most English people researching their history will find an ancestor in the workhouse. My own grandmother gave birth there and a week later her 18 month old died in the same place. Late 1800s

The White House says the Kennedy Center board vote was “unanimous”…

BULLSHIT.

@repbeatty.bsky.social, a Congressional member of the board, was on the call. They muted her and didn't let her voice opposition.

This is beyond absurd, totally illegal, and a disgrace to the memory and legacy of JFK.

What a waste of money. Who on earth is throwing good money away on this futile action?

MPs warn that UK agreements with Donald Trump are ‘built on sand’.

UK bullied to pay billions more for NHS drugs produced by US companies, importing US beef, accept steel tariffs and more, without any reciprocity.

Can't trust Trump. US wants dominance, not partnership.

Rejoin the EU.
