Q: Can you explain what's going on with the bandages on Trump's hand?
LEAVITT: We've given you an explanation. The president is literally constantly shaking hands.

Farage just said “I didn’t wear a mask last time and I won’t wear them this time. This is nonsense.”
Here he is, not only wearing a mask, but also getting vaccinated…

Another pathetic Tory has been. They really are the anti establishment bad boys.
Former Tory MP Ben Bradley has now defected to Reform. They really are taking all the worst people from the Boris era.

White men, imagine you go for a job. The interview panel is three black women. The board of directors is all black women and has been, without exception, forever. You notice that all supervisors are black women and the only white man you see is cleaning. The company insists they appoint on merit /1

Daft to say, but very similar to the first test in many ways. Exciting, seemingly even first day followed by a bit of a chasing on the second day. I would put my house on the result being the same. #theashes.

Rising racism blamed for collapse in number of foreign nurses coming to UK
Number of overseas nurses and midwives registered between April and September was half that of a year ago
The number of overseas nurses and midwives coming to the UK is collapsing, figures reveal, with rising racism and changes to immigration rules blamed for the fall.
Between April and September, 6,321 nurses and midwives from abroad joined the register of those licensed to practice in the UK, compared with 12,534 who did so in the same period in 2024. Continue reading...

If anyone’s curious about how politicians who tip the scales even a little bit away from the rich are treated…

I wonder if it's time to retire the role of "political editor" altogether
Return most of the coverage to the Economics Editor, the Health Editor, the Home Affairs team & so on.
Leave the "who-said-what-to-whom" & "what-does-it-mean-for-the-polls" to others. The BBC doesn't need to foreground this.

Watched BBC 6 o clock news. Just a completely unserious broadcast. Chris Mason, acting like a children's entertainer, giving a prolonged impenetrable editorial. Not a whiff of informative content about the Budget or what it means for the country. Just playschool blah blah bollocks.

Won’t anyone think of the bullshit merchants with a £2.5m house whining because they have a BIT more tax to pay?
Wow - this guy must be really, REALLY bad with money if an extra £208 per month will “ruin” his retirement.
Let’s take a look at his situation based on what he told the @Telegraph
Because this does NOT add up!
No, this is not a “poor pensioner” scrabbling around for pennies…
