offsite link British TV Comedy Has Lost its Class Sat Nov 22, 2025 17:00 | Finlay McLaren
The BBC's Director of Comedy wants to "save the sitcom". But the sitcom is only endangered because most of them stopped being funny. As To the Manor Born reminds us, British comedy has lost its class, says Finlay McLaren.

Is the era of cheap internet surveys over? A new paper demonstrates that AIs can now be "trivially programmed" to answer online surveys in ways that are essentially indistinguishable from humans.

We're a week away from the most painful Budget in history thanks largely to the eye-watering cost of lockdown. Yet Baroness Hallett says next time the Government must be ready to go harder and faster. This is insanity.

It's bad enough that all UK TV users are forced to fund the BBC via a TV licence. But it's worse than that, says Charlotte Gill: millions of pounds of taxpayers' money are handed to the corporation via backdoor channels.

Shannon Blockade Reports

category clare | anti-war / imperialism | news report author Saturday December 06, 2003 16:34author by IMC Correspondent Report this post to the editors

Reports phoned from today's anti-war protest.

15.15:

The protest in Shannon is continuing, about 300 or 400 protesters have arrived by buses and their own transport.

The bulk of the participants are gathered at a roundabout - and at that, not the closest roundabout to the airport. There's a heavy police presence, one road is blocked off with concrete barriers etc. Gardai have set up a checkpoint and members of the public are able to drive right up to the airport as normal.

Some protestors, "black bloc" or GNAW-types (who are there with good numbers), have gone closer and are running towards the airport. There are banners etc. at the roundabout protest.

No reports of arrests to date.
