'Half measures' and 'Fake jobs for sale' 11 minutes ago Share Save Share Save Chancellor Rachel Reeves has revealed a support package for British pubs, which the Mirror describes as "long-awaited". "Half measures" declares the paper, reporting that publicans have not been impressed by the 15% discount on business rates she announced. The discount will come into effect in April. The Wednesday edition of the i Paper calls the move a "pubs u-turn to save Britain's locals from extinction". The chancellor has risked a backlash from other hospitality venues, the paper says, who have not been included in the temporary extra support. It adds that diners and travellers can expect to face price increases for food, drink and hotel rooms this spring, as a result of higher property taxes. The business rates "u-turn" has been branded "too little, too late" by the Mail, which warns of a "high street meltdown". It says the exclusion of small shops, restaurants and hotels from the discounted tax rates is a "betrayal", and accused the chancellor of trying to dodge "humiliation" by asking Treasury Minister Dan Tomlinson to make the announcement. The Times reports that fake jobs are being sold to migrants for up to £20,000, as part of a fraudulent scheme to secure work visas and stay in the UK unlawfully. After the paper alerted the Home Office to its findings, the government said it would launch an "urgent investigation" into the scheme. The Express provides an update on the "one in, one out" migrant scheme in its main story, alleging that the policy has been called a "total farce". The paper says 350 asylum seekers have arrived in the UK over the past six months under the scheme, while just 281 migrants were returned to France. "Starmer led 'witch-hunt' against Iraq veterans" says the Telegraph, which says Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer worked as the lead barrister on a 2007 human rights claim that "reshaped the law governing troops in war zones". According to the paper, the landmar...

Even The Biden Admin Investigated Ilhan Omar's Shady Personal Finances According to financial disclosures filed last year, Rep. Ilhan Omar’s net worth has surged in recent years. Omar reported that her husband held stakes valued between $6 million and $30 million in a venture capital firm and a winery . That sudden and dramatic increase in wealth has now drawn scrutiny. House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) plans to open an investigation into how such a meteoric rise occurred so quickly, and she is also under criminal investigation by the Department of Justice. The existence of the federal probe became public after President Donald Trump mentioned it in a Truth Social post on Monday. Trump wrote, “the DOJ and Congress are looking at ‘Congresswoman’ Illhan Omar, who left Somalia with NOTHING, and is now reportedly worth more than 44 Million Dollars. Time will tell all.” Omar dismissed Trump’s announcement in a post on X. “Sorry, Trump, your support is collapsing and you’re panicking,” she wrote. “Right on cue, you’re deflecting from your failures with lies and conspiracy theories about me. Years of ‘investigations’ have found nothing. Get your goons out of Minnesota.” Others are accusing Trump of weaponizing the Justice Department against his political enemies. “The Justice Department’s ‘investigation’ of Representative Omar, a longtime critic of President Trump, looks suspiciously like a continuation of Trump’s revenge campaign against Minnesota’s elected officials and anyone else who disagrees with him,” claimed Christina Harvey, executive director of Stand Up America. However, Omar’s shady personal finances even caught the attention of the Biden Justice Department back in 2024. According to a New York Times report, federal prosecutors launched an investigation into Omar that scrutinized her personal finances, campaign spending, and contacts with a foreign national. The investigation began in June 2024, with federal prosecutors working alongside th...

China’s only pure-play silver fund halted trading on Wednesday, after a frenzied wave of investment drove its premium significantly above the value of its underlying assets. The UBS SDIC Silver Futures Fund LOF is halting trading until 10:30 a.m. Beijing time, the fund’s manager said in a statement. It also paused new subscriptions after issuing near-daily risk warnings — and frequently halting trading — since early December. The fund’s premium over Shanghai Futures Exchange silver contracts is currently around 36%, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Read More: Precious Metals Craze Prompts China Fund to Turn Away Investors The elevated premium is “unsustainable” and investors could face “significant” losses if the market suddenly turns, UBS SDIC Fund Management Co. said in its latest notice. Silver buying in China, whether physical or speculative, has been on a relentless tear in recent months. Prices in Asia’s largest economy are trading at a premium to comparable international benchmarks, even after accounting for the 13% value-added tax borne by local importers. Spot silver has risen more than 50% so far this year.
