In a different era, the yucky Yorks would long since have been shipped to Australia (or Bermuda), enabling the crown to survive and the Yorks to gorge and cavort along the Gold Coast.

Five other charities have now done the same.

Why doesn’t the crown toss these people? UD figures it’s because Andrew in particular simply knows too much dirt on the royal family, and is blackmailing them by threatening to reveal it.
Let this comment, from the incoming president of the Oxford Union (!), stand for all the vile statements many people are making about Kirk’s assassination. The Oxford Union used to be a pretty classy outfit; why they’re handing it over to someone dissolute enough to publish something like this is a mystery.

“I have a good surgeon if you ever want to get your nose done.“
Commentary from one of the encampment’s residents: “There’s a school right there. It looks bad, people leaving needles all over and there’s people nodded out … like it’s just gross.”

But no one wants what is now the ACS’s house, a vast metastasized monument to greed and contempt.
No one has lived there for years.
And as the years go by, the ACS has attempted to solve its problem (taxes, upkeep, security?) through surgery. It has cut and cut and cut and cut the asking price for this diseased thing.
Today they did more cutting. It’s all the way down to $25 million.

I worry a lot about what will happen if we don’t act soon. Many people fear an abrupt end to democracy under Trump. I don’t, especially.
