I know a huge amount about him and wasn't bored. It's a funny, touching film with two brilliant central performances. The historical detail is bunk but what do you expect from the director of Gladiator? Ridley makes movies, not documentaries

Quit being a Dr in the US when I discovered that the hospital favored low-priority rich people for organ transplants over high-priority very sick poor kids who were at death's door. I moved to UK & now work in the NHS. You guys have no idea how fucking lucky you are to have them.

Biden to picketing UAW members in Michigan: 'Wall Street didn't build the country. The middle class built the country.'

Remarkable to hear Braverman say multiculturalism has failed. She's a British Home Secretary descended from Goan Indians from Mauritius and Kenya, married to a Jewish husband, in a government headed by Britain's first Hindu PM. What would successful multiculturalism look like?
