“It is a total, ginormous mess from the government… that was entirely foreseeable.” Labour’s u-turn on business rates for pubs is “absolutely the right thing to do”, but the treasury should have seen this coming before the budget, says Times columnist Sonia Sodha.

“What worries me is not, is this very expensive? It's the precedent it might be setting for the future." Paul Johnson says government support for people hit by the rising price of heating oil is a “tiny amount of money”, but could set a "staggeringly expensive" precedent.

This is just a hypothesis at this point, but there is no way they are telling us the truth about what data centers are really for. My gut says they are actually building massive jails, under the guise of AI.

BREAKING: Mike Johnson says he’s not going to hold a vote on the Epstein files. “We need the administration to have the space to do what it is doing" Republicans are covering up for Trump. There is no doubt about that. Do you agree with this?

NEW: Tucker Carlson says ‘Aliens’ are one of the few topics he is scared to cover, says the things he has learned are so dark that he can’t even tell his wife. “There's a spiritual component there that I don't fully understand.” “There are parts of that story that I do not understand at all that are really, really, really dark. It's so dark that I haven't told my wife about it.” “Parts of the government don't want you to know about it, but part of it is the public can't deal with it. It's too far out. The implications are too profound.”

Newt Gingrich says Democrats just pulled off a DOUBLE NEGATIVE with this shutdown. He’s been in politics for over 45 years, but he says what Democrats are doing at the moment is one of the DUMBEST moves he’s ever witnessed. Things could not look more bleak: “This may be the dumbest strategy that I have seen in a long time. There are two things the American people want,” Gingrich explained. 1.) Do not close the government and 2. Do not raise spending. "So what do the Democrats do? They say, 'I’m going to close the government until you raise spending.'" “That’s a DOUBLE NEGATIVE!” Gingrich stressed. He asked: “Do you know how hard it is for a major party to design a strategy that has two different stupid things in the same strategy?… But it is really one of the dumbest moments in Party history — certainly in the last 30 or 40 years.”
