Miriam Margolyes: Controversy Magnet

People have said Miriam Margolyes is antisemitic because of a specific set of comments she’s made over the years — mainly involving Nazi comparisons, generalising statements about Jews, and remarks about Israel that some Jewish organisations say cross well‑established red lines. One can’t choose one human over another; every life carries equal worth. Every lifeContinue reading “Miriam Margolyes: Controversy Magnet”

Wales Just Went Full “Tell The Truth… Or Take The Walk”

Wales is genuinely on track to become the first country in the world where politicians can lose their jobs, or even face criminal consequences, for knowingly lying during election campaigns. This isn’t a rumour or a symbolic gesture: the Senedd passed the Member Accountability and Elections Bill in March 2026, which includes a legal dutyContinue reading “Wales Just Went Full “Tell The Truth… Or Take The Walk””

Dignity Is Defiance

Living with a disability means waking up every day inside limits you never chose — and then watching strangers debate whether those limits are “valid enough” to deserve help.   Your life becomes public property. Your needs become public opinion. Your independence becomes a budget line. And the cruelty is that none of these debates happensContinue reading “Dignity Is Defiance”

Buy One, Get One Free

Donations cap U‑turn: Burnham swerved so hard on the donations cap he nearly needed hazard lights. One minute he’s saying “Yes, cap it!”, the next minute he’s doing the political equivalent of “Actually… I’ve changed my mind, babes.” And then — cherry on top — he announces a plan for 10,000 young people to workContinue reading “Buy One, Get One Free”

Was Jeremy Corbyn Harshly Treated By The Media?

Imagine Jeremy Corbyn walking into the newsroom like: “Morning everyone!” And the entire press pack responds: “Ah! The threat to sandwiches, flags, and everything we hold dear has arrived!” Half the papers treated him like he’d personally tried to nationalise their kettle. One headline basically went: “CORBYN BREATHES — COUNTRY IN CHAOS.” Another seemed toContinue reading “Was Jeremy Corbyn Harshly Treated By The Media?”

Spot The drop, Stop The Danger

The telltale sign that was missed — and which the watchdog later said should have triggered an urgent cancer investigation — was steady, unexplained weight loss, a classic red‑flag symptom of pancreatic cancer. During a telephone GP appointment, the patient reported persistent, unexplained weight loss. Instead of being investigated as a potential cancer symptom, itContinue reading “Spot The drop, Stop The Danger”

London Councils: Cold Homes, Warm Payouts

A north London council — Camden Council — has indeed paid out nearly £2,000 to a resident with arthritis after contractors left him without heating for almost eight months. Contractors responding to a leaking radiator didn’t just fix it — they ripped it out and blocked the heating supply to the entire property, leaving theContinue reading “London Councils: Cold Homes, Warm Payouts”

They Grab The Perks And Lecture The Public

Unelected Lords swan in, grab £342 tax‑free for a quick sit‑down, and toddle off — meanwhile pensioners are told to knit themselves a jumper and hope for the best. Guy Fawkes had the right idea about being fed up — but honestly, at this point, just fumigating Westminster with a giant can of “Anti‑Corruption Spray”Continue reading “They Grab The Perks And Lecture The Public”

Moral Authority Gone, Nostalgia Rising, Scandals Stacking, Monarchy Drifting

The core of her accusation centres on a quiet but symbolically loaded change Buckingham Palace made in the Sovereign Grant Annual Report — and the belief that King Charles has strayed from the Coronation oath he swore to uphold the Christian faith. A former royal chaplain, Gavin Ashenden, publicly accused King Charles of “deserting ChristianContinue reading “Moral Authority Gone, Nostalgia Rising, Scandals Stacking, Monarchy Drifting”

Royal London Baby Death

A coroner has warned that more babies could die unless neonatal monitor alarms are redesigned, after a six‑month‑old boy at the Royal London Hospital died when staff couldn’t hear his alarm. Ismaeel Islam, who had Down’s Syndrome and complex medical needs, suffered a respiratory arrest on the special care baby unit. His oxygen‑monitor alarm hadContinue reading “Royal London Baby Death”
