This story is starting to make me feel I’m going slightly mad - maybe RR overdid the gloom, but the tax rises are paying for a) the welfare U-turns b) the £10bn-plus increase in headroom c) scrapping the two child limit d) bits of other spending eg higher local gov costs 🤷🏻‍♀️

Mark Kelly: "This president, when he says things like 'third world countries,' what is he really saying? I think what he's saying is he doesn't want brown people in our country. And that's disturbing. It's un-American."

What do these corporations have in common?

Netflix
Ford
Tesla
T-Mobile
Duke Energy
DISH Network
Metlife
Dominion Energy
United States Steel

In recent years, they all paid their execs more than they paid in taxes.

This is what a corporate-rigged system looks like.

I really like listening to @lisanandy I think she’s great. I just wish she was in a different role because I’m not sure dealing with Ofcom and the Media is the right skill set for her.

As Labour bed in to governing. Delivering their manifesto in record time and volume. Odd how all the fear mongering of the right loses its power.

Debt. Migration. Jobs. Rent. Workers Rights. So far.

Obviously a busy List today. I’ve cherry picked the obvious and included a few you might not have seen. A good week for Labour. A good week for our economy. And good week for us.

This is the scandal. Trump isn’t targeting dangerous people. He’s targeting peaceful immigrants. Almost exclusively.

Fuck these arrogant millionaires who have the gall to tell ordinary Americans upset about high food prices that they should just substitute lower-quality generic food and quit complaining.
Hassett: "On one of the Sunday shows, the anchor criticized the fact Walmart said the Thanksgiving dinner is cheaper by about $10. Then he said, 'Oh yeah, but they substituted generic stuff,' as if having a generic something is a crime for ordinary folks! It shows how out of touch these people are."

As for Farage’s use of racist slurs being confined to his childhood - well, that's not what Alan Sked, the founder of UKIP, claimed in this 2014 interview.

He says here that Farage was using the "n" word as late as 1997.

Farage would have been about 33 at time.

The media, maybe even the country, have forgotten what it’s like to have politicians who view their roles as public servants working for the good of the citizens of our country.

“I would never, ever do it in a hurtful or insulting way,” Farage responded

How could racist slurs be done in a kind way????

How could hissing like a gas chamber not be construed as evil.

Farage is in trouble.

At 3/4pm tomorrow I expect to see every newspaper apologising for the lies they’ve spread about this Budget. For the lies that have stalled the economy.
