I disagree with that. The BBC News site is littered with tabloid stuff. Celeb gosssip and items about reality TV shows have no place on the main news page.
Read Any Good Books Lately? 22nd January 2026
For anyone who likes detective stories, I recommend the Bill Slider series by Cynthia Harrod-Eagles. Possibly the most prolific author you've never heard of. She's done a lot of other stuff: historical family sagas, romances etc, but I haven't read any of those, not my thing. However the Bill Slider books are police procedurals set […]
Donald J Trump 22nd January 2026
Hmm, not entirely a health thing and all those people around him are ambitious and possessed of their own agendas, but Trump's failing mental and physical health is focussing all of these efforts, along with the need to derail the mid-terms which will almost certainly be a disaster for the Republicans and leave Trump limited […]

I used to see him occasionally shopping in town, back when he worked for one of the breweries based in Masham.
Donald J Trump 22nd January 2026
I agree with this interpretation. The guy has always had the attention span of a gnat. He absolutely loves attention and being in the narcissistic black hole that he is in. Now he is surrounded by sycophants who don't push back on any of his hair brained schemes at all, but they do have their […]
