This very straight news piece buried deep within the FT never uses words like corruption or insider dealing but every detail is quietly devastating. Why is the FT virtually alone in the UK media in covering this important story?
Brian Niccol of Starbucks took home the award for the most nonsensical disparity between CEO and employee income: He earns $95,801,676, while the median salary for a Starbucks employee was a mere $14,674. trib.al/RMejLDH
The US killing one and hundred fifty school children in a single attack on Iran has apparently been universally decided to be a non story by the Western press. Not front page news, not in the highlights, instantly memory holed. Profession and institutions worse than worthless.
I didn't realize that Iran is supposed to play three World Cup games in the United States this summer even though it is currently under a bombardment ordered by the only holder of the FIFA Peace Prize

Putting the day off to good use. 20/20.
A court has ruled that the government's authoritarian ban on Palestine Action was unlawful.

London friends! Come hang out with us tomorrow and reimagine a play about how powerful men sacrifice young girls in the name of never-ending wars that preserve an unjust world order… which is in absolutely no way relevant to the world in which we live, of course.

In the words of an Oxfam report from 2023, “every billionaire is a policy failure.” That's now the moderate position.
My words from about a year ago, when I picked one billion $ as a wealth cut-off for the sake of simplifying the math (obvs that's still too much $).
