The government will have disabled and chronically ill people’s deaths on their hands as the fear they have instilled in them over the past month will end in deaths.
MPs with any compassion need to oppose these drastic welfare cut changes. Genuine people will end up homeless or take their lives.

Father of teen whose death was linked to social media has ‘lost faith’ in Ofcom
Ian Russell says watchdog lacks ‘urgency’ and is not willing to use its powers ‘to the extent required’
The father of Molly Russell, a British teenager who killed herself after viewing harmful online content, has called for a change in leadership at the UK’s communications watchdog after losing faith in its ability to make the internet safer for children.
Ian Russell, whose 14 year-old daughter took her own life in 2017, said Ofcom had “repeatedly” demonstrated that it does not grasp the urgency of keeping under-18s safe online and was failing to implement new digital laws forcefully. Continue reading...

Latest Epstein emails cast further doubt on Andrew’s claim of cutting ties
Messages sent months after former prince said he ended relations and also appear to confirm Virginia Giuffre photo
Newly released Jeffrey Epstein emails have cast further doubt on Andrew Mountbatten Windsor’s account of when he cut ties with the child sex offender and his denials about meeting his accuser Virginia Giuffre.
In March 2011, four months after he later claimed to have ended his relationship with Epstein, the former prince told him and the convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell “I can’t take any more of this” in response to allegations put forward by the Mail on Sunday. Continue reading...

Millionaires group urge Reeves to introduce wealth tax to ‘lift kids of out poverty’.
But Govts listen to the City type.
1% have more wealth than 70% of the population.
Poorest 20% pay higher proportion of income in taxes than the richest 20%.
Can't grow economic by squeezing the bottom 50%.

Sara, 10, was killed by her father, Urfan Sharif, and her stepmother, Beinash Batool, in August 2023 after years of escalating brutality which left her with bruises, burns, human bite marks and at least 25 fractures. Continue reading...
