Oxford is now more or less a quango – and the same goes for Cambridge and the rest of Britain's DEI-addled university sector, says Darren Gee. How far our once-great universities have fallen – but there is hope.
The quango behind the mad and dangerous plan to dim the Sun has a budget of £800 million of taxpayer money to blow on speculative projects – and a CEO on £450k. What an extraordinary misuse of public money.
Quangos across Britain have quietly poured over £26 million into diversity roles since 2021 – all while taxpayers grow increasingly frustrated and the Government pledges to cut waste.
Ed Miliband's GB Energy 'green' start-up will pay its Chief Executive up to £525,000 a year – more than three times the Prime Minister’s salary. And he only has to go into the office three days a week.
Keir Starmer abolished NHS England today as he launched an assault on the "flabby, unfocused and over-cautious" state. But Ministers played down the prospect of wide-scale job cuts, casting doubt on the savings.
After years of watching the Tories fight a losing battle with the Blairite Blob, Keir Starmer becomes a victim of it as well as he finds himself powerless to stop the Sentencing Council create a two-tier justice system.
