Glad to see the back of a corrupt incompetent Tory govt. UK needs to get itself back in the EU as soon as possible and to bring in PR . However, it's clear that Labour is not the future. I've just joined the Greens.

This badly needs to happen. The police never seem to enforce the Localism Act which (in theory) makes dodgy/incomplete registers of interest a criminal offence.

I've reported on countless cases of the rules simply being ignored. Time for standards to be enforced.

If they had any brains and balls, they'd kick out the #Tories who run it.
I do not understand the Labour government's reticence over defending the BBC and social media regulation. Their long-term survival basically depends on it. Their cowardice in the face of it may be the single thing they are most remembered for.

Laws are bent for the rich.

Wages taxed at marginal rates of 20% – 45% plus national insurance contributions (NIC).

Capital gains taxed at 18% to 32%, no NIC .

Dividends taxed at 8.75% to 39.35%, no NIC.

All income must be taxed at the same rate.
Nothing will change until the political system is freed from the clutches of corporations and the super-rich
The law is being used to enforce existing power structures for the benefit of the few
