Nigel Farage wants to spend more than ยฃ10 billion of your money every year deporting people.

Why would Reform prefer to waste billions being cruel to people instead of taxing the super-rich properly and making life better for EVERYONE?

Israel has claimed that the killing of seven aid workers from World Central Kitchen in April 2024 was accidental.

Since October 2023, it has killed over 450 humanitarian workers and 1450 healthcare workers. It consistently targets the infrastructure for aid delivery. GHF "aid" hubs are kill zones.

Chatbots โ€” LLMs โ€” do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When theyโ€™re โ€œrightโ€ itโ€™s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. Thatโ€™s all.
