Nigel Farage is worried. Not about that undisclosed £5m donation or the Channel 4 undercover film that appeared to show his party accepting illegal donations, but because Britain is on ‘the edge of serious civil unrest’.

Like us you won’t have come across Debi Evans who is apparently a retired NHS matron and a super-proud Little Englander by the looks of it. She’s also not happy with the RNLI, the extraordinary volunteer organisation which has been targeted by the far-right this week for refusing to discriminate between people who might be […]

To the studios of Newsnight now, where the estimable presenter Victoria Derbyshire was finding out just how serious a threat AI might be to the future of humanity. Here she is chatting to Nobel Prize Winner and so-called ‘Godfather of AI’ Geoffrey Hinton and her response – unusual for a TV news presenter you might […]

Like us, you may not have come across Kalani Smith before. Going by the name of Kalani Ghost Hunter (KGH), the TikTok and much else besides star is a food reviewer who has made it his mission to show the world that British food is not all bad.

Time once again to turn our attention to Donald Trump – who else? – who’s got a proven track record of berating reporters (especially women reporters) whose questions he doesn’t like. But we’re not sure he’s ever lashed out at one quite like this, a genuinely shocking moment – even for the American president – […]
