+"And against this backdrop, and with swathes of the media seeming more apoplectic about the comedian Joe Lycett puncturing the cosy consensus than the government consciously sleepwalking through a crisis so as to benefit from action upon Truss’ accession, there is a danger that Truss’ interventions will be treated as the be-all and end-all in terms of the cost of living crisis.

+"What all this indicates is how far from such a model of renting, still relatively widespread across much of Europe, the English private rented sector has moved.
+",OBJ,False
+"In part this is because the deleterious situation surrounding housing in the UK—a common feature of these columns—plays such a large, oversized role in economic and social life.
+",SUBJ,False
+"But in a broader sense, even were we absent this phenomenon entirely, the ongoing crisis of housing afflicting the UK should be seen in a similar light.

+"In Denmark, the government, alongside supporting parties, has announced a cap on rent increases in the private rented sector of 4% over the coming two years.

+"Where Denmark, Portugal, and France respectively are capping private rent increases at 4, 2, and 3.5%, the UK government thus far has only commented on increases in the social rented sector—and here, they are proposing a 5% increase as their preferred solution.

+"If you’re a patriotic American, black, white, or whatever, who believes in the equality of dignity and rights of all people, regardless of race, Kelisa Wing, the Department of Defense’s chief diversity, equity, and inclusion officer, hates you.
+",SUBJ,False
+"Wing, who calls herself a “woke administrator,” demonstrated that she would be a perfect person to serve as a diversity, equity, and inclusion officer when she took to Twitter and unleashed her hatred against white people.
+",SUBJ,False
+"In June 2020, Wing wrote: “I’m exhausted with these white folx in these [professional development] sessions.” Wing was misusing the Left’s insane lexicon here, for “folx,” as Merriam-Webster, which is now as woke as everyone else, tells us is a spelling that is “used especially to explicitly signal the inclusion of groups commonly marginalized.”

+"When Wing got her diversity, equity, and inclusion job at the Department of Defense in December 2021, the Department proudly said that she “has been involved with diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts for students and schools over many years, authoring several books on the topic.”

+"When a critic took issue with Wing’s claim that “racism is ingrained in the very fabric of our country,” the diversity, equity, and inclusion chief’s response was succinct: “Bye Karen.”

+"She doesn’t seem ever to have demonstrated a level of self-awareness that would have enabled her to realize that.
+",SUBJ,False
+"If you are White you might feel bad about hurting others or you might feel afraid to lose this privilege….Overcoming White privilege is a job that must start with the White community….
+",SUBJ,False
+"So the exhausting white people in Wing’s meetings couldn’t have been “folx,” but Wing has more than enough racist anti-white tweets to maintain her woke bona fides.
+",SUBJ,False
+"In another tweet, Wing complained that “this lady actually had the CAUdacity to say that black people can be racist too…I had to stop the session and give Karen the BUSINESS…we are not the majority, we don’t have power.”
+",OBJ,False
+"Donald Trump, says Wing, is the “whole [almost certainly autocorrect for white] boy version of a Karen” and former education secretary Betsy DeVos as “the queen of Karens.”
+",OBJ,False
+"Instead, it is distracted by fantasies of racial discrimination and victimhood propaganda.
+",SUBJ,False
+"It’s full of what you would expect: “White privilege hurts a lot of people.

+"Privilege is like extra money in your pocket that you didn’t earn.”

+"Now, this angry, self-righteous racist oversees diversity, equity, and inclusion for the Department of Defense Education Activity (DoDEA), which, according to a Tuesday Fox News report, “provides K-12 education to the DoD community in the U.S. and all over the world.”
+",SUBJ,False
+"Wing frequently expressed exasperation with how insolently white people dared to behave in her presence.

+"Population growth puts far and away the greatest pressure on the environment, particularly from the perspective of those, like Dr. Tanton, who value wilderness for its own sake, as an amenity, rather than wailing on about imminent economic or ecological collapse.
