Boris Johnson: the King Midas who turns everything to shite
No sooner than Boris Johnson tried to look statesmanlike, it all fell apart. Some prime ministers get to retreat from national issues by bursting onto the world stage. He wanted to be world king as a child. It turns out he’s King Midas but instead of turning everything to gold, he turns everything he touches
Introducing Kropotcoin – the new cryptocurrency by Freedom Press
We’re excited to announce the launch of our revolutionary new way to hate the state! If you’d rather hide your spending habits from the government and the data harvesting industry, why not jump ship to our new initiative?

The Association of Gerontocrats who Steal the Future
The effect of the Kazakhstan protests is such that an authoritarian zone has emerged under the governance of old men who are not afraid to soil their hands with blood. It is worth remembering that this zone begins just east of the EU border. Even after a few days since events in Kazakhstan, it is
