"fairness, transparency" in the British media? You're havin' a laugh. Censorship reigns supreme. This story is just one minor example.

Up to him. No-one else's business, as long as it's legal. Live and let live.

He also shares with Trump a close mutual friend, now deceased.

Sir Paul is certainly correct in describing the BBC as the propaganda arm of the state. This became apparent during the 'pandemic' when any critical analysis of government policy (lockdowns, masking, social distancing, jabs, throwing free money at anyone who had a pulse and some who didn't) was brutally suppressed. The BBC's left-wing bias is not as blatant however as another state-owned outlet, Channel 4, although naturally the equally left-wing Independent doesn't even mention this. Nor does it mention the principal reason GB News is losing money, a boycott by mainstream advertisers organised by left wing 'activists'. Should that be allowed in a democracy? All views are valid but some views are more valid than others? The censorship-industrial complex wields huge power in the UK, and Sir Paul is one of the few media owners with the cojones to fight back against its attempt to impose a single, dystopian narrative on world events.

Correct. Srinakarind hospital in Khon Kaen also has a palliative care department. They will liaise with the local Amphur hospital to provide at-home pain relief by administration of morphine.

No different from the tricks the British army gets up to. https://bigbrotherwatch.org.uk/press-releases/defence-secretary-admits-77th-brigade-tasked-to-uk-disinformation/

Licence to Offend’ Exhibition Cancelled Over Fear of Offence Woke equivalent of "Meeting of the Apathy Society cancelled due to lack of interest"? And it's not even April 1st!

It's the good old NYT, doing what it does. Hypocritically ignoring the faults of the left-wing censorship industrial complex and complaining when free speech is restored.

Ex-PM Thaksin Warns Against Fake High-Society Frauds As opposed to real high-society frauds? Who writes this c**p?

It's the stealth taxes that governments of both stripes have used for years to feed the plebs the line "No increases in income tax". It's a blatant lie but as long as non-one calls them out they will keep getting away with it.

Shouldn't she change the logo on her dispatch box?

"The rich" already pay more than 50% of total taxes in the UK. Squeeze them any more and they'll just get up and leave. Didn't you socialists learn anything from the 1970s?

19 other terrorist killings. Really? You have a link to back that up?

Department of Government Efficiency led by Elon Musk in the US. Tasked with reducing out-of-control government spending.

“I just haven’t got the scope in my budget,” one minister protested. “What the Treasury and No 10 are asking for is impossible. Just wait till DOGE comes for you, mate.

Tip of the iceberg. During Covid governments fell over themselves to dole out money to all and sundry with no oversight or accountability. PPI scandal in the UK was a typical example. Hopefully Musk's DOGE team will root out much of this corruption and the example will be copied by European countries,

Labour belatedly discovering fiscal prudence. Musk is truly a trailblazer.

Do you have any idea of the additional cost to M&S of the NI hikes imposed by Rachel from accounts? Machin has actually done an excellent job in turning around M&S's business.

How is that in any way relevant to the OP?

Only Rachel from accounts could be so dumb as to 'go for growth' by making it more expensive for businesses to hire staff. The economic stupidity and total lack of common sense is mind-boggling.

There are lies, damn lies, and statistics (Winston Churchill).

Most people who voted Labour are suffering 'buyer's remorse', although Guardian readers will of course be hanging on to their faith by their fingernails. Those that have any functioning brain cells can see what's about to hit them from across the Atlantic. The return of common sense, and the UK will be obliged to follow suit. Local elections will be a disaster for Labour and will show clearly which way the wind of public opinion is blowing.

It doesn't need any fermenting. The frustration is palpable here in the UK. You just need to talk to anyone on the street. While the Tories' failures could be blamed on incompetence, many people feel this Labour government is setting out to deliberately destroy the UK, root and branch.

That’s very true. It takes a special kind of Thai woman to manage the transition successfully. But even if she does, remember that her heart will always be in Thailand with her family.

You probably won't get the choice once nuclear winter sets in.
