Churchill famously got by on fairly little sleep, but he also once gave a legendary bollicking to the aide who dared wake him up just because Hitler had invaded another country, since there was nothing he could do about it at 5AM anyway..

Seriously though, if Bezos is pushing for anti-Biden stories, I don't think he's meeting much resistance, whether because they want Trump or because they can't see past the short-term clicks and shares.

If that is the case, there's an ethical obligation to resign and speak freely. Otherwise you're just following orders.

Murdoch did the same with Blair in on 1997. The bottom line is they're not going to alienate their readers by backing a historic loser..

Braverman's dream is planeloads of refugees being shipped to Rwanda, so I'd say there's as much principle there as fur on a cueball.

Just saw some PR photos of Ryan Tubridy and realised what was off with him. He's got that strange, empty Homelander smile that somehow never reaches his eyes.

There are some great ones out there. My favourite is how the Gaels, descendants of Goideal Glas, inventor of the Irish language, found themselves enslaved in Egypt. Then one day, Moses led the Jews out of Egypt. So while Pharoah was busy at the Red Sea, the Gaels ran off in the opposite direction.

The "descended from Spaniards" seems to have started with Isadore, a Spaniard. It was so well thought out the invader rejoiced in the name of Mil Espagne, literally "Spanish soldier". So take with salt. OTOH, there's a sorta kinda DNA link to Basque/Galicia, but it's more we share common ancestors.

A total ban is the only sane policy for Airbnb. There obviously needs to be accommodation in cities for visitors, but that shouldn’t be at the expense of housing units for people who actually live there. More governments should follow Barcelona’s lead.

I'm hearing about people in the arts community in Dublin, normally as inclusive as it gets (or seemingly so), coming out with racist anti-migrant rhetoric now that it has been 'normalised'. It is rising, everywhere, and we can't be blind to it.

Loads of commentators trying to parse SCOTUS like they're still making legal arguments. This isn't law. It's fascism. They will do as they please, and to hell with precedent and law.
