I remember her from the 90s as a paparazzi favourite. She was some sort of "posh it girl", basically out partying all the time in the same sort of vein as Tara Palmer Tomkinson.

And not averse to disrobing in Loaded and FHM. Posh totty, aka a cokehead on the party scene.

See that Prince Harry, I've had him.

So what would a British version of Fox News look like?

[Abernathy]

That’s bollocks, isn’t it ? I had a cream tea at an NT property just the other week, and the scone definitely wasn’t vegan.

[Malcolm Armsteen]

Of course it's bollocks.
It now transpires that the Mail approvingly published the same recipe in 2018...

[Malcolm Armsteen]

@Abernathy

I see the recipe uses margarine for the dough, but were you given butter or margarine for spreading?

[Abernathy]

It was a cream tea, so it was served with clotted cream and a bit of strawberry jam. No butter. The scone tasted like a proper scone, made with butter and not marge.

[Malcolm Armsteen]

Cool.
Sounds toothsome.

[Rosvanian]

My instant reaction - is this all they've got? Losing their shit over a receipe for a scone. If it is, we've won.

[Malcolm Armsteen]

Don't overestimate the intelligence of the average Tory voter...

The National Trust gets attacked, loses income, has to sell off properties. Now.... who do you think would be interested in buying a cheap stately home ideal for conversion into flats?

[Youngian]

Would it be the same politicians getting worked up about WFH and believe ‘money wasting’ councils could cut taxes if they “made their assets work for them?”

It looks like another GB News presenter has been put on gardening leave. Leo Kearse has not been on air since Hope not Hate did some digging into his unsavoury social media activity.

Cheerleading for the Moscow attackers is gonna attract notice.
And cut off one profitable line of grift.

Orbanisation of the media continues unabated

‘We’re all funding hate’: UK Govt is biggest advertiser on GB News
More than £1 million of UK taxpayer money has been spent on almost 10,500 ads since the channel launched in the summer of 2021.

I thought advertising was "the government boasting about itself". Or at least it was when the Tories came to power in 2010 and thought they should cut a load of it.

[Tubby Isaacs]

With numbers like these, it's not surprising Paul Marshall is prioritising buying the Telegraph.

[kreuzberger]

They'll be in the UKPG telling as they had "millyans!"

[Tubby Isaacs]

Paul Marshall belatedly stands down as trustee of ARK.

ARK are definitely one of the better chains, but the wider background here is that trustees of chains don't have any national standards they have to adhere too. Nice easy win for Labour in that.
