surely they can’t declare this as a gift without any nominal value and the name of the donors.

Now, I start to wonder if Guardian is promoting the book. On my amazon account, that book has 45 reviews, not in the best sellers, nor most wished for, nor most gifted, nor movers and shakers.
Is this disinformation by Guardian??? How many books have actually been sold?
Meanwhile , this books is the most gifted one. 🤣
“Unleashed” by Boris #7 in the “Most Gifted” chart. Will any MP declare this book as donations?

Given Amazon's position in the market, providing the content is legal and its not profiting from crime, I'd be worried if they weren't listing it on their website.

When I look at Amazon, it's number 15 in the "most sold non-fiction" chart, and listed as "first week in chart"... BJ Piffle is number one. Arguably, "non-fiction" is not the right category, but... Apart from "they shouldn't be stocking it", what is the issue here? I mean, it's steaming self-serving codswallop that the multi-monikered-midget hasn't even read himself (it's co-authored with an academic with a history of... similar... texts), but...? Nah, let the little turd dig his own grave a bit deeper with his pronouncements. Currently 44 fawning 5% reviews, 1 1* complaining it's too expensive for a pensioner. (Oh, and the title on the cover is in Comic Sans, fertheloveof...)

May be the pensioners who moan should get the manifesto by Marx and Engels instead, only £5.39 with Prime.

It's not so silly having men working in care, there is a lot of heavy lifting, helping people up, moving from bed to wheelchair, to bathroom. Men can be empathic as well and many men would prefer to be cared for by men rather than women.

I hope that's would be the patient preference. I know some women don't want to be touched by men, but some do. Meanwhile, a nurse who was left a house by a vulnerable care home resident who developed "romantic" feelings towards her has been struck off. www.devonlive.com/news/devon-news/nurse-who-left-home-patient-9620516The best bit of the story

You must have been down Soi Bintabaht The only memory I had in Thailand was family trip to a zoo, Sriracha Tiger Zoo But, there are plenty of women profiles from there looking for "romance", not sure if they really get a chance to visit here without "tickets".
