How many stories has Doctor Who done that rails against soulless machines that went to enslave human imagination and profit of their creative labour? The idea that the BBC would even contemplate generative AI episodes of Doctor Who is a tone deaf soul destroying idea

Trump… and Farage “are good at raging at how things are, but incapable of making them better.“ They’re pisstakers not policy makers. Lazy, vain and corrupt. They peddle grievance to the disenchanted but will never care or think enough to actually help them. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Essex police confirm Farage lied about them advising him not to attend the election count. Presumably he didn’t attend because of the embarrassment of beating a bin - nothing but a farce and a hollow victory. Today scrutiny will resume.
