The aptly named Dr Bull has been made Reform Party Chairman.

Having been acquainted with his political journey over the last 6 years, here's my cast iron guarantee - it will end very badly indeed.

Post Office Horizon IT scandal compensation hits £1bn A total of £1.039bn has been awarded to just over 7,300 sub-postmasters, the latest figures show.

Post Office Horizon IT scandal payouts hit £1bn.

Postmasters pressured into accepting less.

No contribution from PO execs, Fujitsu, lawyers, accountants and others who benefitted from wrongful prosecutions.

Despite evidence no one charged for perverting justice. Will they ever be?

Mindblowing.
This is the US today!

The forbidden lick (it’s the energizer brand, fwiw)

Investigation launched after deportee breaks free on Heathrow runway Man apprehended after freeing himself from restraints and sprinting across runway at Terminal 2

From a professional perspective, it is interesting that at no point is there a question about the restraint practices of Mitie. The way in which deportation flights work involves deliberately scaring people, putting them automatically in flight, fight or freeze.

Trafalgar Square came alive today as Londoners celebrated Eid on the Square.

ER doctor here! Please seek medical attention (go to the ER) if you are hit in the head with a ballistic.

“Less lethal” weapons kill people all the time, in addition to causing permanent disabilities.

If you don’t feel safe disclosing that you were protesting just say you were hit in the head, etc

Trump orders National Guard to LA after clashes The city sees a second day of clashes over raids by federal agents on undocumented migrants.

Trump's authoritarian, xenophobic anti-migrant agenda is going to rip large parts of America apart.
It isn't migrants who are a threat to the US, it's ICE and Trump.

Bernie, you rascal! You’re spot on here.

So, to be clear, Musk has now admitted he funded a man he believes to be a pedophile to be president.

And Trump has now admitted that he gave access to high level government secrets to a man he believes to be a big time drug addict.

This should be *the* story on the Sunday shows tomorrow.

Happy National Donut Day to all who celebrate.

In amongst all the excitement I fear many have missed this outstanding bit of trolling by Friedrich Merz.

The Chancellor gifted Trump a gilded framed copy of his grandfather’s German birth certificate... reminding Americans that Trump is both the child and grandchild of migrants.
