At what point does a taxpayer-funded NGO, writing policy and shaping behaviour, stop being "civil society” and start looking like an unelected arm of the state?
Marco Rubio's acknowledgement about NGO funding is the quiet admission that Power has been moving this way for years.
Blackpool Council spent £551.5 million in interest on short-term loans in 2024, ranging from £947 to £15.7M.

Starmer held a talk with a grin,
To charm all the press with a spin.
But the jurnos did snap,

Hi Ian, I saw your show regarding council tax
I just launched https://t.co/NbO9No1f3k that shows how your council spends your money.
For example Lincolnshire council spent £161 million on "home-to-school" transport in the last few years.
Happy to have a chat
