That’s a £30 billion black hole in our economy, according to the IFS. And a ‘car crash’ for our care industry & the NHS. Just for starters. On the plus side, Bromsgrove currently has hundreds of union flags flying from lampposts.

The Old Wellington Inn in Manchester, being jacked up on stilts to the new street level during redevelopment. It definitely looks like it's about to waddle out of the picture.

Despite easily being the most British fighting vehicle ever developed, the mock-Tudor AT-AT programme was sadly cancelled due to budgetary concerns

Cork city centre church to close within the year, Mass-goers told Historic church to hold its last ever Mass in July

The Cork city centre church we went to as kids - where I was told to go and shake the hand of General Tom Barry - is closing. God knows what it will be/can be used for. Sign of the times for the Catholic church and the city.

Blue one is the standard of the Pahlavi family

A grey hoodie with text which reads: “Buy a man eat fish, He day, teach fish man To a lifetime.”

If you think George W Bush & Co didn't have a plan for Iraq after the bombing stopped..... get ready for some truly spectacular consequences from #Iran

As a professional military strategist, I just wanted to make sure everyone has a full understanding of the American strategy in Iran, thank you for your attention to this matter

Southern California air board rejected pollution rules after AI-generated flood of comments The opposition appeared overwhelming: Tens of thousands of emails poured into Southern California's top air pollution authority as its board weighed a June proposal to phase out gas-powered appliances...

They were going to pass rules to phase out gas stoves, until they received 20,000 public comments against the regulations. Except, oops, it turns out the comments were generated by AI.

A Fox News personality - if you had to blame one person for where we are today - it would be Rupert Murdoch.

Even his spirit guide Hearst - "You furnish the pictures, and I'll furnish the war" - couldn't have dreamed of this

Last week, for the first time in 20 years, a man died from a treatable snake bite on my home island of Martinique. He had asked chatGPT what to do instead of going the hospital. He missed the 6 hours treatable window.
