What is microgaming?

People who are new to the world of online gaming might be asking themselves the question: What is microgaming? Microgaming is a household name for the people who are interested in online casino gaming at websites like the Red Flush Online Casino, but it is still not a universal household name. Microgaming is a software development company that began in 1994, and has since more or less helped to create the online casino gaming industry. They are credited with creating...

America is about to build a wall so Canada opens its doors to Mexicans

Canada is about to scrap its controversial visa requirements for Mexican visitors. Donald Trump entering the White House is only likely to spell bad news for Mexicans in the US or hoping to re-locate to America. Trump is still vowing to build a wall (with a bit of fencing in parts) across the entire border and said he will deport as many illegal immigrants as possible, ranging from one to three million. A lot of these people are likely to...

Is This The Most Pretentious Coffee Liqueur of All-Time?

I like coffee. I also know and appreciate the difference between good and bad coffee: an often necessary caffeine-fix to face the day ahead, and a great end to a meal that has been joined by copious amounts of wine. I do not, however, approve of the unbelievable level of pretension that surrounds coffee in 2016. There are far too many coffee shops that adopt frankly irritating names in a bid to draw the MacBook crowd away from Starbucks, roasting...

Dog Eat Dog: Film Review

By Linda Marric  @Linda_Marric Fresh from a very public falling out with the producers of his last project, Dying Of The Light, which he says was taken away from him, Veteran filmmaker Paul Schrader’s is back with an astonishingly bonkers new production which will confuse even some of his most fervent fans.

PMQs 16th November – Post-truths deliver lies

Corbyn promised not to resort to Punch and Judy politics when he became Labour leader and PMQs have been pretty bleak ever since. However lately he has thrown his morals out of the window, bad for his unshakable moral fibre, good for us. Maybe he doesn’t even mind about nuclear proliferation after all and the last thirty years of activism has been a ruse to get his mum to knit him some more jumpers. Corbyn laid into Theresa May over...

Report Warns Of “Treadmill Families” Who Are “Running Harder But Standing Still”

A report by the Social Mobility Commission has warned the government about a worrying trend of "treadmill families" who are "running harder and harder but standing still". The study highlights a "deep social mobility problem" in Britain which has resulted in an unfair education system, a two-tier labour market, a regionally imbalanced economy and unaffordable housing. Young families can now no longer expect to do as well as their parents' generation, with fault-lines of wealth and opportunity now patently obvious. Commission chair Alan Milburn says: "So...

Prisoners Smuggling Drugs, Booze and Takeaways into Britain’s Understaffed Prisons

New pictures have emerged of a group of prisoners enjoying takeaways, thick cuts of steak and joking about how they snuck a kebab in through the window at Britain's understaffed prisons. A man who accidentally added a serving prisoner on Facebook was shocked when his timeline became filled with lags - having a great time and acting like students. Inmates jailed for a variety of violent offences uploaded pictures of them drinking booze, taking drugs and getting takeaways delivered to their prison...

The Democrats And Labour Are Facing The Same Problem

It has often been argued that people in the world of politics live in their own bubble, guided by partisan ideology that is regularly disconnected from reality. Nothing is more indicative of that than the inability of Democrats to see that pushing through, or as many have accused them, engineering the nomination of a critically flawed and divisive candidate such as Hillary Clinton could spectacularly backfire on them. Bernie Sanders’ surge in politics was one of the more inspiring stories...
