Dying vet’s ‘fuck you’ letter to George Bush & Dick Cheney needs to be read by every American

I Was a Paid Internet Shill

The author admitted in a private exchange that the entire story was fabricated. I am writing here to come out of the closet as a paid shill. For a little over six months, I was paid to spread disinformation and argue political points on the Internet.

Celebrate Paralympians, but remember they needed state help to get there

Next week an extraordinary spectacle unfolds, revealing super-fit, finely muscled Paralympians doing things few able-bodied people could ever achieve. But will it change public attitudes – and if so, for better or worse? Polls show public views hardening against disabled people. GCSE pupils warned: there are no jobs out there - Education News - Education. The number of 16 to 18-year-olds not in school, work or training has risen in the past year by 5,000 to 191,000, latest figures show.

GCSE pupils warned: there are no jobs out there - Education News - Education

The numbers of "Neets" (16 to 24-year-olds not in education, employment or training) was "still too high", a spokeswoman for the Department for Education conceded – but record amounts were being spent trying to keep 16 to 19-year-olds in employment or training. Labour's shadow education spokeswoman Karen Buck said the figures showed "the talents of too many people were going to waste". Around 650,000 young people are due to receive their GCSE results today, with the expectation that the pass rate will be roughly the same as in 2011, when 69.8 per cent of pupils achieved five A* to Cs. Headteachers will also be biting their nails over today's results as their jobs are on the line. The target is up from 35 per cent this year when 107 schools failed to make the grade. The Government insisted every school's future would be decided on an individual basis.

Energy companies 'overcharge customers by £600m' The scale of the alleged abuses comes after energy companies announced large profits at a time when households are struggling to pay record bills.

Energy companies 'overcharge customers by £600m'

Charles Hendry, the energy minister, is planning to ban such “exploitative behaviour” by the owners of wind farms and gas and coal plants, after warnings from Ofgem that compensation payments are rising out of control. New rules will go to consultation this autumn. They would force firms to surrender 10 per cent of turnover if they charge excessive compensation in future. John Robertson, an MP on the energy committee, will write to the Department for Energy and Climate Change (DECC) demanding a full inquiry. London is the ‘global capital of money-laundering’ It will all come out in the wash: Private Eye follows the money.

London is the ‘global capital of money-laundering’

Britain is still the money-laundering capital of the world, according to a special six-page investigation published in this fortnight’s Private Eye. Richard Brooks, a former tax inspector responsible for Private Eye’s groundbreaking exposés of corporate tax avoidance, turns his attention to the dirty money flowing through our banks and tax havens. Weeks after a US senate committee slammed Britain’s biggest bank, HSBC, for facilitating vast money-laundering operations, including washing money from Mexican drug cartels, he finds that light-touch banking regulation and a thriving network of tax havens, have made Britain the centre of an embezzlement industry that steals billions from the world’s poor.

Brooks has spent months tracking high-profile corruption cases as they make their way through British courts. Related story – The £200m question: Trade minister Lord Green linked to Swiss HSBC tax scandal. The 13 Most Evil U.S. Government Experiments on Humans. The U.S.

The 13 Most Evil U.S. Government Experiments on Humans

Government has been caught conducting an insane amount of vile, inhumane and grisly experiments on humans without their consent and often without their knowledge. So in light of recent news of the U.S. infecting Guatemalans with STDs, here are the 13 most evil, for lack of a better word, cases of human-testing as conducted by the United States of America. Get ready to become one of those conspiracy theory nuts, because after this list, you will never fully trust your government again. 1. Mind Control, Child Abuse – Project MKULTRA, Subproject 68.
