In other, other news the Reform party recently declared a £9 million donation from the CEO of Tether, the largest ever single political donation in UK history.

Mr Farage continues to maintain that the donor does not expect anything in return. In other, other, other news, the sky is in fact green.

Looks grey to me. A bit dark perhaps but not what I'd call ugly.
As for using bronze, it's easier to cast than steel and it's naturally resistant to corrosion. It might start looking a bit green if you leave it outside for a century or two.

As an aside, what even is "LGBT propaganda"?
Best summed up by an advert on the side of a bus. It was Stonewall, I think.
