£26 billion tax rise announced today in Labour's budget
£90 billon, how much tax revenue is lost because of Brexit EVERY Year
The reason taxes are going up and spending is being cut is because we can't afford stuff because of Brexit!

I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture.
They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1

This is exactly what the recent Trump-BBC 'scandal' was designed to achieve. The BBC is now self-censoring criticisms of Trump in the name of "impartiality"

Everyone is doing this ironically, but someone has to state it plainly. Chris Mason is exactly what is wrong with BBC politics coverage. Infantile coverage via soap opera and constant fawning over Reform and the archetypal Reform voter's supposed views.

Tim Davie misled audience about the BBC’s supposed leftwing agenda | Good Law Project
Speaking at a book festival, the former director general suggested the BBC newsroom was full of BLM T-shirts and Kamala mugs. But that’s fake news.

Trump peace plan: We could all pay if Europe doesn't step up and guarantee Ukraine's security
World leaders praising Trump for his Gaza ceasefire plan only encouraged him to believe he can solve the world's most complex conflicts with minimal effort.

Wealth tax - I'm all in favour.
1) The UK does NOT need people whose main talent is for accruing massive wealth, abstracting it from the country's system to hoard it in the Cayman Islands. If they want to leave, then let's get rid of them. Growth can only come from it being spread around.

I really find it deeply depressing that a Labour government moves ever further rightward in its desire to out-Reform Reform, penalising the young, refugees, torture victims, disadvantaged and desperate people, the most vulnerable of society. I don’t think I could ever again trust or vote for them
