Guy Ritchie puts his name to his films enthusiastically - he’s the director, whatever happens, happens because of his direction. He needs to own this, in fact he can't avoid responsibility - His Land, His Shoot, His Responsibility.

For satire to work, it must either be so outrageous as to make us take pause or it must be rooted in truth. I believe this is satire rooted in truth.

On a human level I feel very sorry for Thomas Frank this morning. Without question the team performances were poor and showed no sign of improvement, however I feel Tottenham are paying the price of Levy’s mishandling of the club’s transfer policy prior to his deserved sacking

Graphic showing a line chart with the headline text β€œHOMICIDES OF YOUNG PEOPLE AT LOWEST LEVELS THIS CENTURY”.
Subheading text reads: β€œTargeted work to tackle violence affecting young people led by the Violence Reduction Unit has contributed to under-25 homicides falling to a historic low.”
The chart shows yearly data from 1997 to 2025 on the horizontal axis and numbers from 0 to 80 on the vertical axis, with a blue line fluctuating over time and dropping sharply by 2025.
Large text across the chart reads: β€œ60.9% LOWER THAN 1997”.
Source text at the bottom reads: β€œSource: MPS recorded homicide data for period 1st January to 31st December, 1997 to 2025.”

The number of homicides of young people in London continues to fall.

When I set up the Violence Reduction Unit in 2019, the capital’s homicide rate of under-25s was three times higher than it is today.

How did Liz Truss become prime minister? Truss has launched a bizarre YouTube show steeped in conspiracy theories. Thank goodness her time in Number 10 lasted just 49 days

Dan Wootton is Liz Truss’s muse. He’d like to lock up @bethrigby.bsky.social and Robert Peston for their services to the Deep State. It’s all happening on her Liz’s new show. And, boy, is it odd www.prospectmagazine.co.uk/politics/con...

I call on my party and my government to remove themselves entirely from X and communicate with the public where they actually participate online and can be protected from such illegality.

The accusation of election fraud is a complete fabrication with zero evidence! Apart from a video of my National Press Officer, London Area Manager and a senior Reform campaigner discussing it.
