Ghosts!

The BBC seems to be getting into A.I. as the way ahead. First, a series of lectures fronted by an A.I. Agatha Christie. Now, they plan to do something with the much more recognizable image of Alfred Hitchcock.

Only sometimes?

The government is on the side of working people, right? So why is the Transport Secretary going to stick it to them by getting rid of the £3 cap on bus fares?

The latest bogus human rights, if Those People are allowed to get away with it, will be a right of access to the internet and then a right to get TV on the internet.
    Predictably, the response from academics who have found that kids are being damaged by excessive internet access is sceptical. But since when did good sense have anything to do with bogus human rights?

Back down to Earth

The response to the Farage Reform agenda from the Conservative Shadow Chancellor has been to calculate that Reform’s tax giveaways would bankrupt Britain!
    No sign of the fourth party that will save us from the first three yet?

Impossible dream

    But could Nige deliver against the dead negative hand of the Blob in the civil service?

Sneaky

The reason why Chinese electric vehicles are relatively cheap is that they have a hidden kill switch in them, which would let ‘bad actors’ bring them to a standstill at a time when they are intent on mischief.
    That’s the story, anyway. How true it is depends on how much you subscribe to the theory that the purpose of new tech is to screw up the lives of people still using older tech.
