GB News: SNP accused of having 'no idea where money is going' after quango on 'reducing the size of moobs' discovered
The Scottish National Party faces criticism for including a defunct company, This is Remarkable Ltd, in its directory of public organizations. The firm, which promotes male breast-reduction surgery, has been in liquidation since December 2022, raising concerns about government waste.
Scottish Tory leader Russell Findlay argues this oversight demonstrates the SNP's mismanagement of taxpayer funds and calls for a reduction in the number of quangos. The Scottish Government plans to address these issues with a new public service reform strategy.
Fox News: Reporter's Notebook: Why the Senate is unlikely to debate the 'big, beautiful bill' until next week
Senate Republicans are unlikely to bring the proposed legislation, referred to as the "big, beautiful bill," to the floor for debate this week, pushing the timeline to the week of June 22. This delay could jeopardize its passage by the July 4 deadline.
The Senate Finance Committee is expected to release the bill's text soon, which includes significant tax provisions and potential cuts to Medicare and Medicaid. The true deadline for the bill is early August, coinciding with the U.S. debt ceiling issue.
