Eddie Mair goes through Liz Truss for a shortcut here. Truss is just one of the many terrifyingly stupid and completely dishonest Tory ideologues who are now running things. A government of amoral idiots, voted in by amoral idiots. It won't end well.

It’s Hallowe’en. The turnip-man’s lopped head
Blazes at us through split bottle glass
And fumes and swims up like a wrecker’s lantern.
Death mask of harvest, mocker at All Souls
With scorching smells, red dog’s eyes in the night－
We ring and stare into unhallowed light.

The new provost of Eton, quoted in today’s Telegraph.
80% of his close male friends are from Eton and he treats everyone else with suspicion.
No wonder the school spews out so many egomaniacs and weirdos

In the sense that it was a load of rancid incoherent bollocks stitching together a clutch of nasty bigotries, yeah, it was truly Scrutonian.

No, it was not 'gifted' by anyone, it was seized by one of the most brutal colonizers Ireland to which Ireland has ever been subjected, who honed his genocidal skills with Drake. That seizure was challenged, and retrospectively legitimized in the nineteenth century ...
From 2015. ‘The Earl of Shaftesbury, Nick Ashley-Cooper, has licensed 5 sand extraction firms to take a million tons of sand a year from the lough. It is then sold on, mostly to construction firms. The lough bed was gifted to his family in the 17thC.’ belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/…

Shaftesbury came into possession of Lough Neagh due ultimately to the murderous activities of one of Elizabeth I's favourite thugs, Arthur Chichester . Pumping sewage into it is permissible under the bizarre legal dodge known as 'Crown immunity'. Scandalous stuff all round.
Lough Neagh: Earl of Shaftesbury still open to sale and calls for government body to take control of blighted body of water

The idea that in 2023 we’d be paying an absentee landlord for natural resources is bizarre. Give him £1 and tell him to fuck off.
