Well played. And frighteningly accurate.

I’m-sorry-excuse-me-what-now?! My mortgage went up by around that amount earlier this year when Labour was very much not in power.
Headline with Keir Starmer Photo:

6 Your mortgage is about to go up by £700 a month - and it's Labour's fault
Keir Starmer has done precious little to reward voters - and the worst is yet to come
Sir Keir Starmer faces an onslaught of blame for a market that refuses to simmer down

When I was a child, I learned that the Constitution didn’t apply to people like us. I said the Pledge of Allegiance from inside a barbed wire camp, the words “with liberty and justice for all” wholly meaningless. But I did not give up on America. I’ve spent my life fighting for its ideals.

I can’t recall, but during Austerity, were there any headlines warning that when you “cut public services, you cut growth”? Or with Brexit, any headlines saying “when you add bureaucracy to our trade infrastructure, you cut growth”? I’m sure I must have just missed these.
Headline reading:

‘When you hit profits, you hit growth': Businesses criticise biggest budget tax increase in decades
The Labour government put growth at the heart of its campaigning during the last general election, but it increased taxes by the largest amount since John Major's government in 1993.

DHL's cargo plane crashed near the Vilnius airport in Lithuania early Monday morning. Previously intelligence services from multiple countries warned that Russia was plotting a terrorist attack on DHL planes. The current crash is still under investigation.

Both in the news today for differing reasons. Michael Sheen who remortgaged his house to fund the Homeless World Cup, Jeremy Clarkson who bought a farm to evade tax.

even the Duke of Westminster’s crowd are calling BS on that one
Screenshot of post on “X” (formerly Twitter) made by Nicholas Lissack 2 days before reading “No, Keir Starmer was not the asylum lawyer for Alphonse Rudakubana, the father of Southport attacker Axel Rudakubana.

If you read the document, you’ll see that Starmer’s clients were as follows:

- “J.”: A 26-year-old Iranian man persecuted for converting to Christianity.
- “F.”: A 33-year-old Angolan ex-army officer accused of spying.
- “D.”: A 22-year-old Angolan man whose family was massacred for opposing the government.
- “B.”: A 16-year-old Ethiopian girl fleeing imprisonment and beatings after her father’s political arrest.

The only mention of Rwanda is “M.”: a 42-year-old Hutu woman represented by Mr Simon Cox. Furthermore, this age does not align with either Axel’s father, Alphonse, or his mother, Laetitia Muzayire, at the time they emigrated to the UK in 2002….”

If you bring central London to a halt in order to campaign against catastrophic climate change then you're a "barmy" eco "fanatic" who deserves to be locked up. If you do the same to hang on to your multimillion pound inheritance tax exemption then you're a brave freedom fighter defying the odds

A word on the Allison Pearson free speech row, and what she describes as a ‘Kafkaesque’ threat to it. We asked her on @thenewsagents.bsky.social to discuss. She said: ‘No. And if you get any aspect of the story wrong my lawyers will be watching.’ Gotta love a free speech warrior 🤷🏻‍♂️

Love this. ‘Queue’ is from the French word with the same spelling (but pronounced as ‘kuh’) meaning an animal’s long tail. In the 18th and 19th centuries it also referred to a pigtail and was sometimes spelled as ‘cue’, which gave us the name of the long thin rod used in snooker.

BBC news bulletins are still pushing the narrative that poor economic performance is Labour's fault. This contrasts with the BBC's ongoing reluctance to mention the impact of Brexit.

Stephen King, master of the horror novel, just quit Twitter because it'd become too "dark." That's how horrifying Twitter is right now. There may never be a more perfect expression of this fact.
