This is edition 2025/94 of the Ten@10 newsletter.
Welcome back. It's 2025 and 20 years since I started writing about politics and anything else that took my fancy. Thank to my VIP members for making this site what it is today. In July we will be having a 20th birthday celebration. Stay tuned for more announcements.
This is the Ten@10, where I collate and summarise ten news items you generally won't see in the mainstream media.
Enjoy!

- 💰 He earns over $160,000 annually from taxpayers and benefits from political status.
- 🙄 Jackson talks about inequality but has not taken real financial actions against it.
- 🌟 Calls for him to sell his mansion and donate to youth homelessness go unanswered.
