Two immigrants top relevant Sunday Times list for most UK tax paid, as "patriot" multi-billionaire Ratcliffe lives as an immigrant in Monaco, to protect wealth so vast it is unspendable, while whining about immigrant UK care workers and NHS cleaners not pulling their weight.
FUCK RIGHT OFF, "SIR".

Jim Radcliffe pissed me off, so I wrote this about the inconvenient truth of migration.
tl:dr - no, just fucking read it. Some basic mathematics - you know, COUNTING THINGS - might make you reconsider, you stupid twats.

Ratcliffe is, quite obviously, factually, morally & intellectually wrong about immigration. But his racist comments will be 'both-sided' everywhere because people who simply don't like seeing non-white faces aren't ashamed to say so anymore.

Matt Goodwin says this is "a chance for the hardworking, law-abiding, tax-paying people," such as his boss, Nigel Farage, who doesn't do his job in parliament, lied about why he avoided constituency work, admitted to breaking 17 laws last week alone, and still faces questions about tax avoidance.

For how long do the world’s leaders appease Trump. Ask yourself. Who is the bigger threat? Trump? Or a refugee on a boat. When we abandon our moral duty and our principles, the world dies, regardless of who wins the gunfight.

BBC report at a headline level that Grok will now not make sexually exploitative images any more. An actual reporter comes on and explains that it will do no such thing, and will just make the images invisible in the UK. These are two very, very different things.

Workers’ rights⚠️he’s against them
Welfare⚠️he’d strip it away
NHS⚠️he’d dismantle it.
“Populists govern badly but campaign well”
So blow up their campaign.

Peston Rigby and Kuenssberg should all be in jail for being “enemies of the country”. Former prime minister Liz Truss chews the fat with her muse Dan Wootton. It’s crazy stuff www.prospectmagazine.co.uk/politics/con...
How did Liz Truss become prime minister?
Truss has launched a bizarre YouTube show steeped in conspiracy theories. Thank goodness her time in Number 10 lasted just 49 days
