Starmer: Cheese

Badenoch: Ahhh, but is it cheese or ham? I smell a stitch-up!?

Starmer: Cheese.

Badenoch: But which is it?

Starmer: Cheese

Badenoch: At last, an answer. But I'm still unclear?

Starmer: Cheese

With billions and billions pouring into AI, financial organisations are starting to warn of the potential risk when the bubble pops - but even if companies go bust, AI as a technology is here to stay.

The AI bubble is heading towards a burst but it won't be the end of AI

Economists, bankers and even the boss of OpenAI are warning of a rapidly inflating AI bubble. If and when it bursts, what will happen to the technological breakthroughs of the past few years?

If you are watching the Reform Party controlled Councils with their endless mishaps, resignations, fallouts, scandals, mismanagement and sheer comedic idiocy, but still thinking of making these clowns a national government, representing the UK on the global stage, you are literally insane.

Brits who support Farage support russia and are russian assets

Patrick - Here for the craic 👍🏼 @patrickopatrick.bsky.social · 2d

When Farage and I were growing up (similar age) Russia was the enemy, we were both in cadets, Russia was the Army’s foe

Villains in Movies & books were Russian.. those who helped Russia were traitors

Since 2010 Farage has been on Russian TV at least 17 times talking the West down
#FaragePutinsPet

Nigel Farage's relationship with Russian media comes under scrutiny

The Ukip leader's Euroscepticism makes him a shoo-in at the Russian state broadcaster that is often called Putin's mouthpiece

I should say. - and I have no vested interest.
Churches do not sell or provide a commercial service.
Mostly they don’t raise enough to cover their costs and better off members who have paid their tax, make extra contributions to the church.
If you go this route then tax dogs homes as well??
