It will never not be wild to me that the Russians attacked Keir Starmer's home, successfully spread falsehoods about Starmer's love life, and this didn't changed British politics and British political elite behaviour *at all*.

I've accidentally become obsessed with Crusader Kings 3 on the PS5. I'm pretty shit but it's still one of those games where you start playing it on a sunny evening and look up again and it's early the next day.

The boats they are using are bigger but the overall number arriving is smaller. This is what a successful enforcement policy would look like - more boats are getting stopped forcing change of strategy by smugglers - but you would not know this from the alarmist bbc “LARGEST BOAT EVER” push alert

Zack Polanski's baffling use of social media continues: he's liked this post, despite the fact he has admitted he should have been paying the council tax and is making arrangements to pay it. It's not a smear if it's true!
I live on a boat and don't pay council tax. The marina pays business tax, services are provided by private contractors and we have no individual postal address.

Don't believe everything you hear from low-tax lobbyists on corporate media, it was just another weak arsed attempt at a smear campaign.
