🎨 The Lost Leonardo is a new documentary about Salvator Mundi, the painting that sold in 2017 for a record $450 million to Saudi crown prince Mohammed bin Salman, then promptly vanished

“Whenever there’s a lot of money involved, the world becomes a bunch of worms intertwined,” the art critic Kenny Schachter says with a grin. “There was no doubt in anyone’s mind where this painting was going to end up – for sale.” The screen confronts us with a close-up of worms writhing in a discomfiting display.

EU is costing UK £850million a year! Fury at Brussels persistence to impose THEIR rulesJEFFREY DONALDSON warned that the Northern Ireland protocol could be costing as much as £850 million and desperately needed to be resolved now. The NI Protocol is part of the deal negotiated, signed and hailed as “brilliant” by Johnson and supported by Brexiteers including no doubt the Express. If it’s anyone’s fault that £850 million is being wasted, look a bit closer to home ConSocialists 'promises mean zero' chickens are all a bunch of liars lacking personal honour. Plenty of wasteful spending could be ditched before clobbering us with more taxes when we're already down after C19 - not that they'd understand that as they continued to get 100% pay. Plenty of people spoke of this situation happening but were dismissed as project fear.🤔
