This short video is so good.

I didn’t donate but I did join the Greens.

First time I’ve joined a political party. I’m in my 40’s and voted for one party my whole life.

I don’t believe I can vote for them again in good conscience. I didn’t leave them. They left me.

I’m attracted to Zak’s vision.

Government waters down landmark workers' rights bill in U-turn

It will no longer include protections for all workers against unfair dismissal from the first day in their job. The promise was included in Labour's election winning manifesto.

Overall, the combination of tax rises and giveaways since last year’s Budget is progressive.

Incomes for households in the bottom half of the distribution have increased by 1.0 per cent and incomes for households in the top half fell by 0.7 per cent.

Why are Reform such Pearl Clutchers. It's delicious, more of this please journalists
Reform love free speech while being perpetually offended any time someone asks them a very basic question.

It's a curious paradox.

Why doesn't he just laugh and say, "Of course he isn't" instead of getting so cross.
‘Is Nigel Farage a Russian asset?’
‘Are you seriously asking me that?’

How much will the council tax surcharge reduce the price of £5m houses?

Probably somewhere between £150k and £375k.

So if you own a £5m house, you just lost money.

If you were planning to buy one, you haven't (because you'll pay the tax, but save on the purchase)
