As a chocaholic nothing would bring me more pleasure than for Cadburys to collapse. They betrayed everyone when they closed down their factory in Birmingham and sold to a filthy American conglomerate. A glass an a half in every dairy milk ended up three glugs of palm oil and a cheap labour plant in Poland. Boycott the cunts

The new Reacher season trailer is absolutely insane 🔥🔥🔥

Dear @brian_armstrong , It’s time to stop. This started back in January with a narrative that made sense — letting people earn with their own money. Respect for that. But now, enough. You’re protecting your business. Fair. But this industry is bigger than @coinbase . If this doesn’t move forward now, as Cynthia Lummis @SenLummis warned, we’re delaying everything until 2030. And you’re blocking it… over yield? Let’s be clear: If a technology needs incentives to be used, that’s not adoption. Blockchain doesn’t depend on yield.

I can no longer hold my tongue seeing the utter lies being spread about Britain, our history of migration, and how this country was built into what it is today. For those so deeply buried in fake news, manufactured outrage and billionaire‑funded propaganda, I’m going to lay out the truth – and exactly why you’re being fed all this poison. Britain was never a sealed white island. From Roman times there were African soldiers stationed on Hadrian’s Wall and living in British towns, people from across the empire walking these roads nearly 2,000 years ago. Through the Middle Ages and Tudor England you still find Black people in the records – sailors, craftsmen, servants, musicians – even Black musicians at the royal court and Africans being baptised, marrying and being buried in English parishes like anyone else. This isn’t some modern experiment; it’s older than half the castles people visit on their bank‑holiday tours. As Britain went out into the world, the world came here. Sailors and traders from India, Yemen and beyond were arriving in British ports from the 1600s. Some of those men were practising a new faith to most Britons at the time, praying quietly in boarding houses near the docks while they worked brutal shifts in the engine rooms of British ships. Over the centuries, more people from North Africa, the Middle East and South Asia passed through and settled, bringing their languages, foods and beliefs into port cities that were far more mixed than today’s nostalgia merchants like to admit. After two world wars, the truth is simple: this country asked the Commonwealth to come and rebuild it. People from the Caribbean, Africa and South Asia didn’t sneak in; they were recruited. They came to drive buses and trains, staff the NHS, work in mills and foundries, clean offices, run corner shops, open takeaways and small businesses, and yes, build prayer spaces and community centres alongside churches and temples in the neighbourhoods everyone now pretends were always “traditional” and “unchanged”. They did the work that kept Britain going while being told to go home, refused housing, and treated as permanent outsiders. And what have they been paid back with? Scandals where people who’ve lived, worked and paid taxes here for decades get told they don’t belong. Policies designed to make life so hostile that some give up and leave. A media that uses their names, accents, clothes or places of worship as props in endless scare stories. The message is always the same: you might toil for this country, but you will never fully be of it. So when you hear that “Britain was white until recently” or that the country has been “overrun”, understand that you don’t arrive at that belief by accident. You get there because your history has been deliberately ripped out and replaced with a comforting myth: that “real” Britain is white, homogenous, and constantly under siege from people who look, speak or pray differently. Now look at when this myth has been turned up to max volume. Wages frozen. Housing a sick joke. Energy and food prices out of control. Public services hacked to pieces. At the same time, the number of people hoarding unimaginable wealth at the top has exploded. Funny, isn’t it, how every front page is about boats and “swarms” and “our culture”, and almost never about the landlords, hedge funds, private equity and offshore trusts quietly buying up your city and your future. That’s because this isn’t just prejudice; it’s a strategy. If you’re sitting on a mountain of wealth, the last thing you want is ordinary people – of every colour and background – realising they have the same problems and the same enemy. Much safer if the factory worker is furious at the new family down the road. Much safer if the person who can’t see a doctor blames the nurse with an accent instead of the minister who cut the funding. Much safer if a man who can’t afford his rent spends his rage on the woman in a headscarf at the bus stop instead of the billionaire who owns half his city. Racist rhetoric, religious dog‑whistling, all of it, exists to break solidarity. It turns neighbours into enemies and stops people seeing that Black, brown and white working‑class communities have far more in common with each other than any of them will ever have with the people flying in on private jets. It keeps you so busy policing skin colour, passports and prayer mats that you never get round to asking why your kids can’t afford a home, why your parents can’t get a hospital bed, why you’re working harder and standing still. The real story of Britain is this: a crossroads, not a fortress. Africans on Hadrian’s Wall. Black people in Tudor courts and city streets. Sailors, traders and workers from South Asia, the Middle East and beyond in the ports. Caribbean, African and Asian workers rebuilding the country after the war, staffing surgeries and hospitals, driving cabs, running shops, cooking food, teaching kids. Today’s multi‑ethnic, multi‑faith working class is not a glitch; it is Britain. It built this place and it keeps it running. If you’re genuinely angry about what’s happening to this country, good. You should be. But aim it where it belongs. Britain was never pure, never untouched, never “theirs” to take back. The people ruining your standard of living are not the ones risking their lives to get here, or the ones whose names you struggle to pronounce. They’re the ones buying politicians, owning media outlets, writing the story of this country so you never learn your own – and never realise who is standing beside you.

Plenty of uninformed FUD circulating on social media this week. It’s all going to work out. Bullish.

If BlackRock wants to tokenize everything, the system fragments across countless assets and platforms. Fragmentation at this scale creates one unavoidable problem: liquidity. Moving value efficiently requires a neutral bridge for settlement. At this level, executing this system without holding the key asset that enables it is simply impossible. XRP was built precisely for this purpose, a neutral, global bridge asset providing liquidity and settlement across fragmented networks. On a side note, Robbie Mitchnick, who helped expand Ripple’s global corridors, now works at BlackRock to scale their tokenization ambitions. Coincidence? I don’t think so.

Some stories are still waiting to be told…

everyone’s talking about the clarity act. but barely anyone’s heard about the parity act. yet the parity act is what finally lets people use crypto in their daily lives. here’s what you need to know about the most important crypto act nobody’s heard of: 1/ no capital gains tax on daily transactions the act proposes a $200 tax exemption for personal crypto transactions. this means you don’t pay capital gains tax every time you buy something using crypto (ie a cup of coffee!) 2/ deferred taxes on staking income currently, when you stake your crypto, your staking income is taxed upon receipt. the parity act allows taxpayers to defer their taxes on staking rewards for up to 5 years. this means you won’t pay taxes on income you haven’t yet received (or on assets that have depreciated in value). 3/ no taxes on crypto lending the act creates parity between securities lending and crypto lending. so when you use your crypto as collateral, it no longer counts as a sale - preventing unnecessary tax bills.

Dear Sikh sports fans, We have an ideal athlete on the verge of making history in less than two-weeks. BACK OUR BOY GULLY! On 4th April Gulraj Singh Powar fights to be crowned the best featherweight boxer in Britain. He will be the first Sikh to fight for the British boxing Lonsdale belt in 26-years, and only the second Sikh to ever fight for this prestigious title. I urge our sports fans to back him to make history. This isn't the empty call to support someone because of their background. This is about giving someone what they have earned. Around 2020 a sevadaar noted me to the rise of young Gully as a standout amateur boxer in the UK scene. When I connected with Gully via Instagram, I came across maybe the most driven and focused person I have ever met. As a journalist, he instantly wanted me to publicise his fights. But not because he wanted to be famous, but because he said he was going to put our community on the map in boxing, and nothing would stop him. He was not seeking followers on social media. He was creating a movement towards glory, towards showing that a Punjabi lad from the UK can mix it with the best fighters on earth. And that's exactly what he has done ever since, and he has done it not by adopting the cliche tried-and-failed "Mr India" gimmick. Instead, he has got himself a strong following, videos with a million+ views and now a British title shot all by being himself. He carries the Nishaan Sahib into the ring. He blasts Sidhu Moosewala for his entrance music. He promotes seva and simran. And on his social media all you see is him training. Lots, and lots, and lots of hardcore, real badman, proper solid, ultra tough guy training. Whether it is studying the greats from the 1950s or sparring the best in Britain, Gully is THERE. That makes him an ideal sports icon for the Sikh sporting community of today. I have seen how athletes perhaps more than any individuals in the modern world have shaped many cultures. And I hope this for Gully. For those who think otherwise, perhaps they are waiting for perfection. I am not. I want to support those who are doing their best right now. Gulraj is taking another step forward for Sikhs, building from recent fight story successes like Inder Bassi, Arjan Bhullar, Dylan Cheema, Kiru Sahota and others. The value of Sikh excellence in these gladiatorial arenas is self-evident. The more success we see at the top, the more Sikh kids we see in the gym. I guarantee that correlates. So, if you can, I ask you get your friends together and GO TO CARDIFF ON APRIL 4TH TO WATCH A SINGH FIGHT A WELSHMAN IN CARDIFF FOR THE BRITISH TITLE. Or else, show support online, and tune in on the day (fight to be live on BBC iPlayer and maybe on youtube internationally? I think?). LET'S GO GULLY SINGH!

Once upon a time, breakfast television was worth watching…

Let me explain what just happened 👇 5 minutes before the President announced a halt to attacks on Iran… someone placed a $1.5 BILLION bet on stocks going up and dumped $192 million in oil. 5 minutes… These trades were 4 to 6 times larger than anything else in the entire market. Whoever did this wasn’t guessing. You don’t risk $1.5 billion on a hunch. There was zero public indication this announcement was coming. No leaks. No press. Nothing. The only people who knew were in the room when the decision was made. Someone in that room picked up a phone. And within minutes they made more money than most Americans will earn in a thousand lifetimes. In a single trade. On a war that cost you $4+ a gallon gas and $16 billion in tax dollars. American citizens funded this war. Politicians are profiting from it. This is not the first time. Every major announcement from this administration has had massive suspicious trades right before it dropped. Tariff reversals. Policy shifts. War decisions. This is the most blatant insider trading operation in the history of American politics. It’s not even close. And it’s happening over and over in broad daylight. You would go to federal prison for trading on a tip from your cousin. These people are front running war decisions with billion dollar bets and nobody will ever ask a single question. Nobody will be investigated. Nobody will be charged. By tomorrow this will be buried under the next satisfying headline. Just like last time. And the time before that. The game is rigged. And they’re not even trying to hide it anymore…
