Wake up Britain.

In the US, the Ellisons have put “anti-woke” Bari Weiss in charge of CBS News. The goal is to turn it into a mouthpiece for Trump. No wonder Trump is backing Larry’s AI plans.

In the UK, the Ellisons own Channel 5. And ITN’s contract for 5 News ends in 2028. The shit is coming.

Been reading @russincheshire.bsky.social Tories - End of An Error. Brilliantly funny, but I had to stop, it made me so angry at times. The damage done to our country by a bunch of Hayek-addicted idealogues, aided and abetted by some absolute fucking idiots. Sorry Russ, I'll get through it eventually

I've no idea what variant of chutney we're going to make, it's all in The Girl's head at the moment. Though excess pears are involved. She tells me we're going to be making apple cider vinegar as well.
