If unearned income, from shares and dividends, is taxed at a lower rate than earned income, from wages, it bakes in inequality and ensures the rich get ever richer. #politics

#Farage comes back out against working from home to a crowd of pensioners… and has also repeated that he never said that council tax would go down. The party did on all their leaflets. Semantics. Asshat.

Tommy and Farage are strangely quiet on all the pedos in the Epstein files? I thought they were protecting our women and children?

It's hard to overstate the degree to which the general public is being lied to about trans people
Alex Massie trumped up a fake campaign in the times to claim hundreds of rape convictions for women in the justice system were actually trans women despite the numbers covering several hundred more convictions than there are trans women in prison for any crime.
To understand how much Alex Massie actually cares about women's safety: when I called out his transphobe-in-arms Nick Cohen for multiple acts of sexual misconduct against cis women, which eventually got him sacked, Massie went berserk at me.
Transphobia is a men's rights movement in drag.

The Home Secretary has several times said she thinks levels of net migration remain quite high + are comparatively high
This is mainly a vibe.
There are a few factual mistakes/over-spins in her explanation of why she thinks this but many journalists + MPs may not quite notice those.

#Reform appear to have broken election laws in the Gorton Denton Manchester by election. A blue letter has gone out without party details. Cos they are the establishment so it only matters if anyone else breaks the law. Laws are for little people. Expect an honest mistake excuse?

So Trump thinks there was cheating in the election cos he didn’t win everything? Narcissist asshat can’t imagine that anyone may disagree with him. That’s why he thinks protesters are paid actors. Delusional.
