HMRC denies running a "deliberately poor" phone service to push taxpayers to seek help online instead. 44,000 customers cut off without warning after being on hold for 70 minutes last yr, even worse now. So, wrong taxes paid, little people prosecuted and fined. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Facebook is now officially rotten to the core as a matter of policy. And you can ask the six hamsters in the wheel that powers its servers if you don't believe me.

Today's sentencing hearing will be simple. Judge Merchan will declare Trump's sentence is to be held in abatement, which means he will not serve time for his crimes, but the conviction will stand and he will remain a convicted felon with the conviction on his record. Did I say convicted enough?

Weaker, poorer, unhappier, more divided and with an emboldened and radicalised loud minority who champion overt racism and selling out to Musk and Trump… This is where Brexit has led us. Over and above these dismal numbers. That is the true cost.

I see three distinct phases. Pre-Fox, when opinion was diverse but actual facts were indisputable. Fox/Trump, where objective truth was subjected to the false equivalence of ‘alternative facts’ (ie lies). And now, where media & tech platform owners collude with him to drown out the truth altogether.

There are more than 10m children in school in the UK…but, per Times, 3,000 might move to state sector because of VAT rise…so Whitehall is “braced” 😲😲😲 Says a lot about UK media bubble, the way this story is reported. You pay VAT on luxuries. Private schooling is that.

If it takes 10 years to rejoin the EU, then if we start today, we'll be back in 10 years. But if we wait a decade, it will take 20 years. Except that it won't, because we will have had 10 more years of diverging. So it might take a quarter of a century. Start today please. We owe it to the future.

Crypto's huge political donations were not about creating a regulatory environment so blockchain could fulfill its imagined potential. It was to stop the SEC treating crypto as unregulated investments, so they could inflate prices, make huge profits and commit fraud with impunity. And it's working.

Says a lot that about 90% of the traffic I’m seeing on X right now is absolutely convinced the British govt is about to embark on a mass programme of state murder of the elderly and vulnerable. What was until recently the town square of politics has become the preserve of the bad, mad and deranged.
