- cba. I have subscriptions to The Times, The Telegraph, The Spectator and Spiked. I hate the guardian and was sad when Rod Liddle died. I adore Douglas Murray and Julie Burchill.
Am I right wing, far right or fascist?

The only way they would shut down AI is if it became self-aware but started to say things like 'net zero now' and 'stop destroying orangutan habitat'. Do you know how quickly they pull the plug if AI came out as woke 😂

On the left, Dan Niedle's column in the Telegraph
Unless they take up one of the Government’s subsidised childcare schemes, in which case their marginal tax rate will be 2,000,000pc. Because this isn’t The Guardian, you know that’s not a misprint.The UK's independent press regulator, IPSO (Independent Press Standards Organisation), has multiple times upheld complaints or forced corrections against The Daily Telegraph for utilizing incorrect data, flawed mathematics, or misstated statistics.

I find this tweet to be significant beyond the obvious cringe factor. We have built a media environment in which people make statements that display utter ignorance, they never bothered to check the facts underlying their claims - and it sways votes./1

Today in unreadable Reach websites, I clicked a link to a Mirror article in the Facebook app. After three seconds it spontaneously opened the Booking dot com app, then when I went back to Facebook not only had the Mirror page crashed but it took the Facebook app with it. Absolute junk all round.

Agree to a point re infrastructure, but the cost of HS2 (with nebulous aims) has doubled over its troubled gestation to £102bn, but they’re already quoting £49bn for one extra runway at Heathrow.

It’s not just lack of competition on a single route, it’s systemic. A couple of years ago, my flight from Athens to Gatwick was cheaper than my train home from there to Brighton.
