‘Bishop of Liverpool retires after assault claims’.
Presumably to protect his pension and his place in the House of Lords?

It was only a matter of time before the “genius” Elon Musk discovered the Saville-Starmer disinformation rabbit-hole…

…and went eagerly scurrying down there into a potential libel case.

Today the great divide is not between left and right. It’s between democracy and oligarchy.

Let me explain.
The American oligarchy is back, and it’s out of control
It’s the third time in the nation’s history that a small group of hyper-wealthy people have gained political power over the rest of us. Here’s what we must do.

The Brexit Curse:

Brexit cost UK £27bn in lost trade in first two years.

British exports fell by 6.4%, imports by 3.1%.

OBR forecast a 15% slump in trade, leading to a 4% reduction in national income, over the longer term.

Self-inflicted harm.

Rejoin the EU.

The Brexit Curse

British food exports to EU ‘have fallen £3bn a year since Brexit’.

Border checks, lower standards on pesticides, veterinary drugs, animal welfare make UK exports harder.

Brexit costing UK economy about £100bn a year.

Rejoin EU.

Dear @keirstarmer2.bsky.social,

Please move the laws around political & campaign financing to the top of your list

Or…

Expect 1 term that ends in handing power of this country to a foreign billionaire proxy PM and his little puppet

Yours,

The people of this country paying attention.

New data on farms and inheritance tax: a third of farm estates over £1.5m aren’t farmers but wealthy people avoiding IHT by sinking money into farmland.

The Budget hits farmers too hard and tax avoiders too lightly. It needs to change.

Ridiculous BBC headline:
"Public sector pay deals help drive up UK borrowing".

Nothing to do with corporate welfare, contracts for cronies, Govt paying higher energy bills, HMRC not collecting £500bn since 2010, Tory legacy.

Just blame workers wanting decent pay.

Borrowing was £17.4bn last month, the second highest October figure since monthly records began in 1993.

The fact that Jeremy Clarkson, Nigel Farage and Claire Fox have involved themselves with the farmers’ protests should tell us everything we need to know. And I say that as a farmer’s grandson.

A reminder that he bought his 312-acre farm in 2012 for £4.25million in HIS OWN WORDS so that he:
