KitKat is owned by Nestlé. Nestlé is one of the most unethical companies in the world. In the late 1970s and early 1980s, Nestlé wanted to grow its infant formula sales in developing countries, especially in Africa. So they came up with a strategy. They gave free baby formula to new mothers and promoted it as better than mother’s milk. At first, it seemed helpful. But it was not. The free supply lasted just long enough for many mothers to stop producing their own milk. Once it ended, they had no natural option left and had to depend on formula. But many of these mothers were poor. They could not afford to keep buying it. So they tried to stretch it by adding more water and less powder. This led to weak and undernourished babies. It got worse because many of them did not even have clean water or proper conditions to prepare the formula safely. Babies fell sick. Some even died. And Nestlé did not even provide proper instructions. No clear guidance in local languages. No support for mothers who could not read. They knew the risks. They still continued. They only reacted when Western countries protested and boycotted them. Even today, they are not fully ethical. And people still eat KitKat.

JUST IN: 🇺🇸 Over $800,000,000,000 wiped from U.S stock market value today.

I've watched Dunfermline fans spill on to the park in the last 2 rounds and not a word said , because the opposition fans didn't go on the park. Fast forward to today, and it will be both sets of fans fault.

2 things here: 1) Why is the Rangers player simply allowed to pull the Celtic players shirt in the Rangers area and no penalty? There were tears for months about a borderline shirt pull on the edge of the box last season. 2) Clearly comes off the Rangers players boot & out.

This is how the BBC does it. Persistent ticker announcing one death in Tel Aviv, and no word on the more than 100 schoolgirls killed in Iran as a result of an Israeli missile strike. theguardian.com/world/2026/feb…

We gave up energy sovereignty a long time ago - when the Conservatives went full bore free markets and sold off our networks and supply companies.   So, who really cares if the French take a bigger stake in our networks now. Our National Grid is listed on the New York stock market and our water companies are mostly owned from tax havens.   This is the legacy of 1990’s Conservative dogma. Failing national infrastructure, starved of investment but pumping out billions in dividends to foreign shareholders - and simply not serving our national needs. telegraph.co.uk/business/2026/…

I don’t know if anyone will care about what I am saying, but what is happening in the Gaza tents cannot be ignored under any circumstances. Every day, a new disease appears among children and women strange skin conditions, sores and pains that no doctor has ever seen, and rare, slow killing cancers. The radiation from the missiles, along with contaminated water and food, are all factors that make the suffering multiply every day. Children are born with deformities, and women suffer from diseases that have no cure. No one is allowed to leave for treatment abroad, so the pain grows heavier, and despair crushes the people. The tents are filled with fear and hopelessness, and people live a daily suffering that is impossible to imagine. Worst of all, the world does not hear us, as if this tragedy is normal, as if the pain we endure does not matter. Our lives cannot continue in this agony and suffering for more than two years while we write, scream, and appeal to the world, yet, unfortunately, no real change has happened here. Speak! Write! Shout! Explain to the world what is happening here.

If you’re a royal who’s potentially breached national security by passing confidential info to your paedophile best friend, you’ll be released from custody within a few hours. If you’ve allegedly disrupted Israeli weapons production you will be held for 18+ months without trial.

Sick to death of this cunt lecturing us about hard work. When he was an MEP he was 748th out of 751 for attendance, attended 1 out 42 meetings when he was on the EU fisheries committee, has one of the lowest attendance records in Parliament, and never shows up in his constituency

Gary Lineker: Genocide is bad. The right: Stick to football. Jim Ratcliffe: The UK is being colonised, and I don't pay personal income tax here. The right: Yaay, Sir Jim Ratcliffe. Man of the people. True patriot. Rashford: Feed the kids. The right: Boo. Stick to football.

Israel 'evaporated' nearly 3,000 Palestinians using 'thermobaric' or 'vacuum' bombs that boil blood and basically disintegrate humans because the temperature reaches 6,000 degrees. There's a special place in hell for the vile scum that perpetrated this genocide & also gaslit and downplayed it to the world.

I think that if you’re going to write a piece in the Times urging the government to use and boost more AI, the fact that you are paid by a major AI company should be in the first sentence, or at least first paragraph. I also think that the best scenario for AI is that it destroys millions of jobs with the prosperity, dignity and community that goes with them. The worst scenario is the destruction of the human race - a fear openly expressed by an increasing number of senior and experienced AI engineers who are leaving the industry. And somewhere in between a myriad of horrors such as yet more screen learning and screen addiction for our children. But I do see that it will make rich men even richer. And that’s the most important thing of course.

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧☕️🫖💷 The Billionaire in Monaco Telling Britain What to Do. The man who tried to put a secret gagging order on everyone in UK through a private court and lost. He applied for stilts for his home because he knows the environmental damage he is causing creates floods. He owns Manchester United and he seems not to like foreigners and pays £0 tax in the UK… The Billionaire in Monaco Lecturing Britain While Britain Foots the Bill Sir Jim Ratcliffe gets treated like a national oracle. He says something and it becomes a story. He offers an opinion and it is framed as common sense. He is presented as a serious voice on what Britain should do next. That deference is the mistake. Because the first thing that matters about Ratcliffe is not his “straight talking”. It is where he chose to live for tax. In 2020 he moved his personal tax residence to Monaco. Monaco does not levy personal income tax. HMRC does not publish individual tax returns, so there is no official public number for Ratcliffe’s personal UK tax bill in 2025. Nobody outside HMRC can prove a figure. What can be said is simpler and more damning. He put himself outside the UK personal income tax system in the year people were still absorbing the cost of everything that system has to pay for. Before Monaco he was one of the UK’s biggest taxpayers. The reported figure from the Sunday Times tax list for 2017 to 2018 was about £110 million. Then he left. This is the core contradiction. Britain is expected to treat him as a patriot industrialist while he has legally chosen not to be part of the basic national deal that keeps the country functioning. The deal is simple. People who live here pay into the system that keeps the roads open, the hospitals running, the regulators staffed, the emergency services funded, the flood defences repaired, the courts operating and the local councils able to clean up the mess. Ratcliffe opted out of that deal personally. Then the public is told to trust him on the environment, on energy, on what Britain needs. His wealth is built on the petrochemical business. INEOS is not a quaint manufacturing success story. It is a fossil fuel and plastics empire. That matters because fossil fuel extraction and petrochemicals push costs outward. The profit stays private. The damage and the management of that damage is socialised. When pollution happens, it is regulators who investigate, prosecute and monitor. That apparatus is paid for by taxpayers. When industrial plants need state support to keep running, the support comes from taxpayers. When climate impacts worsen and flood risk rises and infrastructure gets hit and councils need emergency spending, that is taxpayers again. Now look at what the UK has already handed to INEOS. In late 2025 the UK government announced a support package of over £120 million for INEOS at Grangemouth tied to keeping the ethylene plant running and protecting jobs. Separate reporting has said chemical companies owned by Ratcliffe received up to £70 million of UK state aid over the 2022 to 2025 period. This is the picture. Public money, private relocation. Then there is the countryside. INEOS pushed hard for UK shale. It built a huge portfolio of licences and talked about fracking as though the public should accept rigs, traffic and landscape change as the price of modern life. When people resisted, INEOS did not just argue its case in the open. It went to court. In 2017 INEOS pursued wide injunctions aimed at restricting protest including against “persons unknown”. The civil liberties point was obvious. A private corporation was trying to create a legal perimeter around itself that could chill lawful protest. The Court of Appeal later narrowed the approach in the related challenges and the episode became a symbol of corporate power testing how far it could go. That matters because it shows instinct. Not persuasion. Containment. Now add the personal hypocrisy that sticks in the throat.

Israel is preparing a brutal apartheid law. Violent fanatical "settlers" who attack Palestinian homes do so with impunity. If Palestinians "resist" these attacks, they'll be hung within 90 days. Legalising slaughter. Take Action every way you can and support the legal right of resistance to occupation.

He isn't wrong...Most of the world understands this. It's Americans who mostly do not.

“The combined tuition fees of the entire Question Time panel would not cover my cost for 1 year of uni. Is that fair?” @OliDugmore It’s absolutely NOT fair. This outrageous scandal must end

Another transfer window. Another failure. A major rebuild is required in the summer, and allowing Michael Nicholson to oversee that would be beyond negligent.

This is totally demented. Has there been a world leader in the modern age more clearly doddering and mad?
