Folks it pains me to ask so bluntly, but could anyone use some work doing by me? I've got to find income for three months until my next royalty payment, and I'm not having much luck.

Graham's show once recorded an audience share of *literally zero*. UK media is full of these goons, kept around to degrade standards for the amusement of press barons. Odd that Graham gets dropped when similarly insufferable thugs like [basically every Times columnist] retain Murdoch's favour.
NEW: Presenter Mike Graham has been dismissed from Rupert Murdoch’s digital channel TalkTV.
Company says he failed to cooperate with an investigation into a racist post that appeared on one of his social media accounts.
He said he has been hacked:

The fact that this person remains Health Secretary is objectively one of the most significant British political scandals of the post-Covid era. But because he's doing something the media barons like, everyone has decided it's fine.
Health Secretary Wes Streeting says that the British Medical Association, which represents Britain's doctors, is a threat to the NHS. Streeting took a record £225k from private healthcare-related donors in just two years.
British Medical Association ‘threat to future of NHS’, says Streeting ahead of doctors’ strike
Health secretary accuses doctors’ union of ‘cartel-like behaviour’ and tells it to ‘get real’ over pay demands

Mr. Beast has confirmed in an interview that the skeletons in the Beastland Haunted House are the remains of "a fraction" of the enslaved migrant workers who died during construction. Mr. Beast has offered the families a lifetime supply of Feastables as recompense.

Is there a reason that UK MP's are taking consultation from American YouTubers but not, say, indie game developers who would be affected by changes in the law?

"The UK tech minister has said VPN ban is on the table" is a bit of a stretch from what this article actually says. It's always safe to assume Ofcom are working in bad faith to demand more power, but in this specific case the evidence seems thin?

I've noticed the opposing team's fans only cheer when the opponents score on us. To win those fans over, I recommend we score on ourselves repeatedly; that will surely make them so happy they'll start supporting us. And I'm sure all our fans will keep cheering for us—who else is there to cheer for?
