@DrDominicGreen Thank you for the very generous review of the Traitor of Arnhem (the paperback edition has more revelations from the latest batch of TNA releases). I used to live in Castle Road. The castle was owned by Alan Clark whose sons fired their air riffles at me from the battlements!

The next @metpoliceuk commissioner being interviewed on the streets of London
The absolute total professionalism of this Armed Response Officer in London. Again, ‘an auditor’ engaging in activities purely to cause issues amongst those going about their day. These chaps, only put up videos where there is negative reaction, there is no value to this at all for them or anyone else, other than maybe financially for themselves. How anyone in society can think this is helpful? Or provides any value to anyone….

The truth about private schools and the taxpayer.
As well as their views on the addition of VAT to fees, our survey also asked: - Are private schools unfair? - Should private schools be forced to offer a quarter of places to local children for free, to improve their social mix? Read the results 👇
