the rich are still in the uk and the press still talk crap

In news that will surprise no-one, the ring wing press who bang on relentlessly about the rich leaving the UK if they get taxed properly, or their workers receive decent pay and conditions, are once again printing crap right wing propaganda. Recent surveys show only 0.03 of the millionaires left, as (and lets face facts) if you're that rich and want to live in London or have a huge estate in the country, you want to remain here, and have more than enough money anyway (and how much money do you need?). The staggering fact is that we have over 3.06 million millionaires. I'd never have guessed there were that many living here (alongside the poverty and the food banks).

Full story from Byline Times is here.

taff and fred at the local - earlier this week

In the local on Wednesday. It's fair to say we get some characters in, and this is one of them - Taff (you could probably have guessed his nickname), looking like a deranged Jimmy Saville, and if you look closely, there's Fred, a retired Colonel in the background.

margaret atwood and oftaco

I've recently read Margaret Atwood's 'The Handmaids Tale' and 'The Testaments', which were both excellent but should serve as a dire warning for America. They did however, make me appreciate the Oftaco image even more. Well played.

sotheby's to auction Elizabeth Peyton's oasis painting

Looking forward to the upcoming Oasis tour and have a spare 1.5 / 2 million pounds to spare? This Elizabeth Peyton 1996 painting of Oasis could be yours! The art world is obviously mad, and my ramshackled old parrot could do a better painting, but what the hell - beauty is in the eye of the beholder. At Sotheby's in June.

israel attacks iran and liz truss gets it wrong again

FFS. I've said it before and l'll say it again. I think Liz Truss has a mental issue. There is no way on Earth that this is good news. Also, when blame gets thrown around, don't forget that Iran continued with nuclear escalation after Donald Trump pulled out of Barrack Obamas deal with Iran to check their nuclear capabilities, and America also continues to arm Israel, aiding them to carry out these attacks (and commit Genocide in Gaza).

astounding labour victory hardly mentioned

A reminder that before this byelection, the SNP were 20/1 on to win with the bookies (place a £20 bet and you win £21), and Reform were second favourites. All the press was about Reform and how well they might do, and even afterwards, about how this could still be classed as a great result for Reform. Barley a mention that Labour came from nowhere to claim an unexpected victory, and The Tories were pretty much wiped out.

the rise of the right part 3546474 - reform to get favourable bbc programming ffs

As if it's not bad enough that Reform have such favourable news coverage, despite their pittance of MP's, and Labour are constantly being grilled and given a kicking, the BBC have been thinking of tailoring output to 'win the trust' of Reform voters. Most of the top people at the BBC were Boris Johnson's choices, and yet people still say the BBC is left wing. As with America, when people look back and ask how the far right came to power, this is one of the starting points - support of the rich press barons and backing of the press (also owned by the rich). These people have their own interests at heart, which will mean more tax breaks and regulations for them, and less rights, money and security for the poor. What a time to be alive.

australian reporter laura tomasi shot with a rubber bullet while reporting - trumps america part 4774577

|Make no mistake about it, this shooting with a rubber bullet of Australian reporter Lauren Tomasi was deliberate, even with the cameras filming everything. The shooter certainly wasn't in any danger and had no need to do so, except for pure malice, but he knows that whatever he does, Trump will back him. This would be unacceptable behaviour normally, but of course in Trump's America, we are not living in normal times, and targeting reporters takes an uneasy step up to the next level. It is only going to get worse. WAKE UP AMERICA!!!!
