Donald Trump absolutely HATES the “President Musk” meme with a passion.

Let’s keep spreading it.

I wish her only health and happiness but this really is ridiculous. Until we stop the deification of these frankly entirely ordinary people it’s hard to see how we evolve out of the stagnant stupor that continues to hold back the United Kingdom. How can anyone take this seriously.

Why we should get a grip with this “have another general election” petition.
The Tories lost with 6.8 million votes.
That’s democracy.
The party coming second could easily drum up millions for a petition like this.
Never mind when you add in Lib Dem’s etc.
The next election is in 2029.

As Health Secretary Matt Hancock sent Covid infected patients into Care Homes with zero protection for other residents leading to 30,000-40,000 deaths.

Now at the Covid inquiry he blames Nicola Sturgeon.

He and Johnson should be in court.

Important context here:

● over half of farms are less than 49 acres (20 hectares)

● "a big farm" is 217 acres.

Now let's see who's angry:

● Clarkson farm is 1,000 acres
● Lloyd Webber farms 4,000 acres
● Viscount Rothermere (Mail owner) 4,700 acres
● Dyson owns 36,000 acres

You've echoed my thoughts. I've never understood why farmers and other businesses were exempt from inheritance tax. If you work all your life & have money & property to leave that above certain levels will be tax. So why R businesses exempt & farms R businesses.
