The combination of saccharine white chocolate and fish, alone, would have been bad enough, yet the sturgeon was sloppy and fusty, with a hum of waste management centres...

The Daily Mail has waged a war on the "fascist left" in what may go down as one of the most ironic pieces of journalism in media history. After it was crushed by so-called "alt left" publications in the 2017 General Election right-wing editor Paul Dacre launched a full scale attack in today's edition, calling left wing publications the "real purveyors of hatred". The feature-length piece was in response to a Guardian cartoon which displayed the publication on the side of the van used...

The Tory Government, as was, has been dealt another huge blow as the High Court judged that it’s benefit cap is illegal and unfairly discriminates against single parents who have young children. This will cause the Conservative Party even more headaches and will probably force, another, u-turn of Government policy. The cap limited the total benefit a household could receive to £20k and up to £23k in the capital. The case was bravely brought by four lone parents who believed...
