My More Jam Tomorrow research has turned up Lord Brabazon of Tara. Brabazon was an early aviator. In 1909, to prove that pigs could fly, he attached a pig in a waste-paper basket to his biplane.

I'm looking to interview people who've moved to the (Persian) Gulf states to work, retire or enjoy the financial advantages – pseudonymously, if they prefer. Please reskeet!

Look at this. Apparently it enables you to follow me on Instagram. But surely you need to use the camera to do that, and you can’t do that to something ON a phone?

No experience? Nonsense. How about ‘seizing the chance to defraud the government of £122m during a pandemic’?

Talking to people takes time, and time is money. Much easier just to turn out a vibes-based bit of opinion.
