Fascinating to imagine what activity you could be freeing up time for that would be more rewarding than reading to your child.

"There is no political figure in Britain that gets a better press than Kemi Badenoch right now.
"The Tory press are manifesting a Tory recovery. They're desperate for it to happen," says @lewisgoodall.com.
Is a Badenoch bounce real, or has the right wing media made it all up?

The butter boom – how the world fell back in love with the glorious golden spread
It’s being sculpted for fashion parties, collected by tourists and hoarded in freezers. There are even entire shops devoted to it. What’s behind the revival of the much-maligned foodstuff?

Apparently "Kemi" has "fresh solutions" uniquely tailored to Britain's current problems.
<excitedly prepares to take notes>
Cut taxes, reward the wealthiest, punish the poor and sick, alienate our allies, deregulate big business, and privatise any remaining state function.
WAAAAAAIT A MINUTE!

Full marks to Bobby J for not bothering to mention that this was entirely due to being given £45 million from the Labour government and told to do it. Even a Reform council couldn't fuck that up.

The ability to pour hundreds of millions of pounds into a loss-making TV channel, bent on wrenching British politics sharply to the right, is yet another of the ways in which extreme wealth is trying to remake UK democracy.
It needs to be part of any serious conversation about political funding.
