In 2022, Curtis Yarvin (associated with Musk’s pal Peter Thiel) proposed a ‘CEO-dictator’ model for government overhaul, called RAGE. Now, Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) mirrors this vision, pushing mass resignations and purging ideologically. Sound familiar?

The House of Lords is a medieval honours system full of cronies, party donors, loyalists, bishops, hereditary peers, Boris Johnson’s brother, and the son of a KGB agent. It sorely needs to be replaced with a democratic second chamber. Sign the Electoral Reform Society’s petition here:

Another House of Lords scandal? We urgently need real reform of the upper chamber.

In 2019, Americans paid $16.22B **out-of-pocket** for cancer treatment. In 2023, UHC alone made $23B in profit. The 10 largest health insurers made a profit of $66.5B combined. Meanwhile, $50B in claims were denied. US health insurance profits thrive by denying care.
