I want to thank everyone who posts gift articles of really important stories that all Americans should read but are behind paywalls so most canβt.
There are some stories that are so important to the public interest that media companies should remove paywalls on some occasions.

McSweeney going is excellent news. It doesn't fix any problems by itself, but it is the precondition for fixing those problems.

Never vote Reform.
They are totally untrustworthy and don't care about you, except for trying to get you to vote for them.
Nasty lot.

Can anyone who knows about dementia explain why Trump is mostly just horrible, sometimes seems near normal for a while, then goes horrifically racist and spiteful?
Is it to do with medication?

Terrifying read Bear of how quickly the US has been turned into a country we no longer recognise as the land of the free. What scares me more is that itβs also happening here in full sight of our government and being promoted by journalists from organisations we used to trust.

London Northwestern Railway and West Midlands Railway services return to public ownership
Services to return to public ownership this Sunday, bringing the country one step closer to a simpler, unified rail system under Great British Railways.Β
More than 8,500 publicly owned rail services...
Half of all rail journeys that Great British Railways will ultimately be responsible for will be on services run by publicly owned operators from Sunday, as London Northwestern Railway and West Midlands Railway services join the fast-growing family of operators "owned by the public for the public."

Don't vote Trump or the GOP in the US.
Don't vote Reforem in the UK.

So, Mr Manning, what first attracted you to the racist outfit - Reform?
Was it perhaps the lure of a racist leader promising mass deportations, an ICE-style border force and the removal of our human rights framework?
Seems the only possible explanation for why this keeps happening.
