Great reporting on the resignation of the Chair of the BBC on grounds of two major conflicts of interest—this implicates Boris Johnson, Rishi Sunak, Oliver Dowden & others in govt; when will this lying & govt sleaze stop?

Britain in Crisis?

Yeah, but it's not because of Brexit. It's because of 44 years of private-sector extremism.

Brexit was a response to the crisis that preceded it. The crisis may have been made worse by Brexit, but it wasn't started by it.

I found this to be a relevant read. It's about the manifestation of collective narcissism — a trait associated with hyper-nationalism, fascism, and general human destructiveness — on social media. Sound familiar?
