GB News bosses must think Nigel Farage is worth every penny of the reported million quid they pay him, his box office appeal enabled them to beat Talk TV into the ground and off the air – despite Piers Morgan’s braggodicous bravado. Nigel keeps the upstart channel competitive. Given no TV licence fee taxpayers’ money is being squandered, what’s the problem? Nigel is being paid a market rate for his talent.

Border Force officials at Heathrow Airport have just announced fresh strikes. PCS, representing them, have expansive demands for civil servants including a reduced working week. The domino effect has begun – below are some of the public sector unions co-conspirators can expect will be demanding more taxpayer cash something to the tune of ASLEF or Junior Doctors’ bumper offers:

- Junior Doctors: Planning on striking again in 2025 even after Labour’s 22% pay rise.
- National Education Union: Campaigning for higher pay, a lower workload, and free school meals.
