We asked Nicola Sturgeon if she had the brainpower to recognise that the coronavirus has been cooked up to help usher in a tyrannical fascist world government.She declined to comment.
She declined to comment.
Seriously get this to fuck.

Print newspaper sales figures are supposed to be out today. But following industry representations, they no longer have to be made public. The monthly ABC sales charts have also been stopped permanently as they give "stimulus to write a negative narrative of circulation decline".— Jim Waterson (@jimwaterson) May 21, 2020
lol
If you keep the decline a secret maybe it will stop.

Note: Tribune Publishing has cut salaries & instituted furloughs citing the pandemic/the economy but the savings to the company is ~less than~ what it is paying in severance to one (1) executive. These decisions are made deliberately to enrich the few on the backs of the many. pic.twitter.com/43KToeEZNf— Nina Metz (@Nina_Metz) May 21, 2020

I believe we slept on 'TEACH BOYS TO DUST'
Came across this montage I made for a presentation when working at EC London office. Wonder if future historians will look at who took decisions to bombard UK public with this drivel day after day, why they did it and did it bring them or anyone any gains in the end? pic.twitter.com/FQHRIUOQma— Mark English (@EULondonMark) August 5, 2020

sorry that's paywalled. it's about how Wirecard tried to discredit the FT by setting up fake news operations with spies bribing market manipulators and other evil-billionaire nonsense.

I totally thought, for a second, that you were posting about the FT's baroque payment structure.

Some questioned if it was a deliberate attempt at humour, or if the positioning of the stories was an unfortunate oversight.
