Fascinating anecdote from A.N. Wilson today in the Mail. 20 years ago the brother of the editor of the newspaper he worked for became a foreign ambassador. Then the late Queen & Prince Philip came to visit the country & left behind a pile of expenses for their official trip. HT @willoyd.bsky.social

#bbcqt britain is broken because money is being used to create wealth. That means the rich get richer at the expense of the poor for no output. Progressive taxation is desperately needed.

It's good that Andrew has been arrested, but more than a thousand women and girls were abused by men on Epstein island, and the only person currently incarcerated for it is a woman.
