Via Press Gazette: Press 'regulator' IPSO ruled that a reporter working on behalf of the Daily Mail website breached the Editors’ Code on privacy and intrusion into grief or shock by *entering a woman’s porch through an external front door*. No fine for the paper, of course.

today, Chris Mason was on Five Live saying that he was paid to "Make judgement calls" about issues like Reeves and the OBR (i.e. interpret and spin the facts)
I would say "no mate! You are paid to report the facts of the matter, impartially, Not trying and frame/package them or pick a side"

Rightly lots of debates about growth this weekend - rightly because it was low productivity growth that saw wages entirely flatline during the 2010s.

I’m very pleased that Jonathan Gullis has joined Reform – we need more conviction politicians with strongly held principles. In other news, here he is explaining why there is absolutely no chance he would ever defect to Reform.

All of us: Why, in our judgement, Chris Mason is misleading on most political points, all the time.
Because he’s incapable of political commentary that isn’t marinated in his own rightwing bias. Allegations for Labour. Free passes for Tories/Reform. Every Single Time.

If Nigel Farage wanted to investigate Russian infiltration into Reform, he’d have done it already.
It’s time the Prime Minister launched a national investigation.

Most benefits go to people IN WORK.
Because…
THERE ARE NOT ENOUGH PROPERLY PAID JOBS,
Rather than insisting employers pay decent wages, governments use taxpayers’ money to subsidise employers who don’t.
Welfare was not meant to support employers.
This is completely wrong.

Kevin Maguire is right, 60% of kids in poverty are in households where at least one parent works.
