HMRC's verdict: NOT deliberate. NOT even careless.
Farage pockets Β£5 million and chooses not to declare it

Has anyone, ever, in the entire history of mobile phones, managed to set fire to a petrol station by mistake while using their phone? (Asking for a friend and obviously not me sneakily posting this at the garage)

If you live in the UK and are voting in council elections today, please don't vote for Reform. Their policies are entirely hate mongering, rascist and ill informed and their leader is an unpleasant, exploitative millionaire pretending to be a man of the people.

Dystopian fic isn't 'drama' - it's forward thinking. Let's revisit The Machine Stops, E.M Forster, (1909): βWe created the Machine, to do our will, but we cannot make it do our will now. It has robbed us of the sense of space and of the sense of touch.β
Now try this #TheEmptying

Dear @BBCBreaking - there are over half a million people marching in London right now, forming an alliance against the far right. How come there is nothing on your website about it?

THE MERMAID'S MIRROR. Often seen as a sign of sin, or as representing the planet Venus; it also represents the mermaid's ability to see through the veil that separates the visible and spirit worlds, according to the folklore of mirrors #WateryFolklore ills C14-15th Bestiaries
