I'm so old I remember when SAL was one of the finest airlines in the world and won many international awards.

🚨 What? … The King of the UK, who gave official Ramadan messages from the palace during Lent … WILL NOT be issuing an Easter message for Christians this year. It appears the ‘Leader of the Faith’ doesn’t really want to lead a Christian country 💣




Police time will no longer be wasted investigating legal social media posts, freeing up officers to patrol the streets and tackle real crime. By scrapping Non‑Crime Hate Incidents, we are balancing the protection of vulnerable communities while respecting free speech.



I giggled for the first time at Ranganathan and Frankie Boyle when their dire shows were binned by the BBC; as Patrick West wrote here at the time: ‘Satire should lampoon those who rule. Except BBC satire has for years shirked this duty. It no longer challenges the establishment – in academia, the civil service, the unelected House of Lords, the BBC itself. It’s instead been a staple of BBC satire to punch down, to mock and deride the conservative, middle-class, Brexit-inclined middle-Englander. Audiences have themselves become bored of the BBC’s repetitious, relentless belittling of ordinary Britons at the behest of a smug, self-satisfied elite.’ ✍️ Julie Burchill Article | spectator.com/article/why-mo…
