"A precedent has been set. Every international student in America today must accept that they may be abducted, detained and deported for attending a protest or expressing a view that upsets the White House or its allies."

United States is no longer a safe destination for international students
Abductions, deportations and fear define campus life for many foreign students in Trump’s America.

Consumer sentiment is now lower than it was during the Great Recession and the second lowest reading since 1952. The guy who inherited hundreds of millions from his father and squandered it now inherited an economy that was the envy of the world and squandered it.

My youngest sister lives in a Cardiff suburb. Last night they got the government alert text regarding #StormDarragh
Neither she nor her husband initially knew what the noise from the warning text was!

Opportunistic spin from the Lib Dems.

The IHT change is not a 'family farm tax'. It's an inherited wealth tax, on assets over £1.3m (x2 for a married couple). It's closing a loophole.

Actually, it's *still* a subsidy: the rate farmers pay is 1/2 that of non-farmers. And they get 10 years to pay it
