Questioning Rees-Mogg’s ‘trademark common sense’

A bold announcement, then, from parodical content provider GB News, that it is branching out into character comedy with a new show to be hosted by arguably the country’s most significant cultural creation of the last 20 years: Jacob Rees-Mogg.

Paid time off isn’t a luxury, it’s essential

Across our country, people are standing up and demanding fair working conditions. These debates are about more than just pay and hours worked.

Debt ceiling showdown is talk of the town

It began as a way to make it easier for the federal government to sell bonds to finance the US role in World War I.

This UK directive simply takes the cake

Smoking is prohibited in all places in most parts of the world.

I mean, what was I expecting from a chatbot? A formula for world peace? Clues on how to mend a broken heart? A cheesy joke? Sure, all that, why not? I wasn’t expecting it, however, to blow me off, to tell me it was too busy for me. And that it would get in touch later by email, when it was free. But that’s how it goes with
