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.

Taxpayers Are Charged for the BBC Whether They Like it or Not Sat Nov 22, 2025 11:00 | Charlotte Gill
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.

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4Now would you really be shocked Andrew if it turned out that, that be true? How many leaders in times of war have turned to God throughout history to find moral justification for their actions?
Was only reading recently there about "Stonewall" Jackson. A famous confederate general during the American civil war, historically reknowned for tactical genius. He was convinced his actions & victories were ordained by God.
Believeable, but scary.
From Maharishi's press conference, 2.4.03
QUESTION:
During conflicts people pray to God for victory. Both sides are convinced, God is on our side. God is universal, God is omnipresent, omnipotent, omniscient as you said. So, whose side is God really on, when soldiers go to war?
MAHARISHI:
God is well aware of the hypocrisy of man. You can`t hide behind the name God and do wrong things. He has set the laws: As you sow, so shall you reap. As you sow, so shall you reap!
This is the kindness of God who has given man that freedom, what you like you can do. But what you do, you can not undo the result of your own doing. You have to bear the fruits of your doing.
As you sow, so shall you reap. It is a law. It is a universal law. God is not after each man, you do this and you don`t do that. No, no. God is God, the administrator of the galactic universe. He rules by one law. The law is: freedom to you, do what you want to do and you will get the result of what you do. That`s all.
You can befool yourself, but you can not befool the allmighty intelligence, the administrator of the universe, the light of God.
