Pseudoscience, a salad garden and a study on pregnant men: How Britain’s quangos spend your money

2 weeks ago | yahoo.com | Charlotte Gill

Could Labour really be about to unleash another “bonfire of the quangos”? Pat McFadden, the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster, certainly appears minded to do so. Earlier this week, it was reported he had written to ministers asking them to justify all quangos operating under their departments as part of a drive to “rewire” the state and wage war on “waste”.
Why does George Soros want Britain to rejoin the EU?

2 months ago | open.substack.com | Charlotte Gill

Last week Sir Keir Starmer welcomed German chancellor Olaf Scholz to Chequers, where the two men reflected ‚Äúon the progress made between the UK and Germany in recent months‚ÄĚ. Forget the second referendum, Starmer appears to be taking matters into his own hands - and deciding that Brits want to rejoin the trade bloc (that‚Äôs when he‚Äôs not trying to sign Britain up to ‚Äúreparations‚ÄĚ).

The best foreign funders of 2024

Dec 30, 2024 | charlottecgill.co.uk | Charlotte Gill

Ever since Elon Musk was first floated as a potential funder of Reform, there’s been nothing but outrage - from the Left, at least - about him being a danger to British democracy. To show what “good foreign funding” looks like, I’ve compiled this useful list of the best funders in 2024.
PAID) Keir Starmer's links to Led by Donkeys

Dec 24, 2024 | charlottecgill.co.uk | Charlotte Gill

Yesterday I stumbled on a very interesting interview with Led by Donkeys, which sheds some light on their relationship with Keir Starmer. It was published in The New Statesman in October, but appears to have gone under the radar. In short, Led by Donkeys (LBD) know Starmer much more than Brits might realise - perhaps explaining why the group leaves him alone while constantly bashing Reform. In 2008 it turns out that Starmer helped two of LBD (before they were “Donkeys”) prepare a legal defence.
Why we need to end APPGs

Dec 23, 2024 | charlottecgill.co.uk | Charlotte Gill

Have you heard of APPGs? That is, All-Party Parliamentary Groups. If you havenāt, I donāt blame you. Itās quite hard to keep track of all the government quangos, committees and devolved administrations we now have - which I suspect rather suits the Radical Left. Itās far easier to sustain a ālong march through the institutionsā when no one can possibly remember the numerous institutions you are marching through.
The Deputy Mayor of Baked Beans

Dec 6, 2024 | charlottecgill.co.uk | Charlotte Gill

I thought taxpayers might like to hear the wise words of Howard Dawber, London’s Deputy Mayor for Business and Growth, who posted about cafes today:Let's hear it for the traditional London caf. Not pretentious, not your global coffee chain. This is your honest to goodness family-run local breakfast place. They sometimes get called greasy spoons, but they aren't greasy at all. Every table's cleaned to an inch of its life...

"Blood Show" - “a trans celebration of destroying things” at Battersea Arts Centre

Aug 13, 2024 | charlottecgill.co.uk | Charlotte Gill

Fancy a show about blood? Well you’re in luck. Recently I discovered an advert for Blood Show, “a trans celebration of destroying things” playing at Battersea Arts Centre (BAC).
