A fantastic evening with the University of York Debating Society. Thanks to members Sunil and @stephenstroud.bsky.social who took part in a wealth tax debate alongside the TaxPayers’ Alliance and Institute of Economic Affairs. Delighted students voted in favour of the proposal to #TaxTheSuperRich

Liverpool to Gorton & Denton and back to London in the same day!

I'll be back again this weekend - everywhere we go, people are excited about the Green Party.

Lower bills, protect the NHS, rebuild our public services.

Wots going on. This type of labelling seems designed to confuse. Apparently a serving size is 5/6th of a bag. Who eats 5/6ths. Just state the facts about the bag. Pointless, misleading, nonsense.

Remember the monthly child tax credit in 2021 that was a basic income for 40 million families for six months? One of the results of that policy was that fewer parents sold their blood plasma.
Is this the “golden age” economy we’ve heard so much about?

Asked if Ratcliffe was right to apologise for his racist statement about Britain having been “colonised” by immigrants, Farage replies,
'It’s probably in the dictionary definition correct, but perhaps people aren't quite ready for it’

No. It’s not, Nigel. It’s just racist. And wrong. Much like you.

NEGUSE: AG Bondi, that man works for you now, right? The man in that video from J6 yelling 'kill them!' at cops. His name is Jared Wise.

BONDI: He does work for us, yes. I believe he was pardoned

NEGUSE: And you expect hard-working police officers to believe you take law enforcement seriously?

A critical moment at the hearing came when Lieu accused Bondi of committing perjury. She exploded as it dawned on her that she could be going to prison for protecting paedophiles…

This obviously hit a nerve…

Bondi snarled: “Don’t you ever accuse me of a crime!”

Pam Bondi has been a complete and total failure at her job. The Epstein survivors showed more courage just by being in that room than she did under oath. She refused to answer questions and chose complicity.

America deserves better.

NEW: A page from Bondi's burn book. This is a list of the searches by Rep Jayapal of the unredacted Epstein files. That means the DOJ grabbed her search terms from the computers they set up for members of congress to view the Epstein files to use as ammunition. The photo is from Reuters.

Scotland Wales and N Ireland aren’t English regions. They’re nations or regions annexed by England.

It’s too late for constitutional reform: it will NEVER happen. Labour had abolition of the Lords in its manifesto in 1910!

Devolution? Undermined.

Federalism? Phooey!

UK real GDP increased by 0.1% in Quarter 4 2025.

Can't grow economy when 1% has more wealth than 70% of the population combined.

7.3m await NHS hospital appointments in England.

24m live below minimum living standards.

Redistribution and investment in public services needed, not neoliberalism.
