Tax Avoidance costs the UK £200bn a year.

Why is Angela Rayner's tax avoidance a massive scandal but Nigel Farage's which is about 10x higher completely ignored.

Lets stop all Tax Avoidance.

It's not about flags, it's not about Asylum Seekers.

It's about racism.

It's about getting a large bunch of idiots so riled up about it that they will vote only for the person pushing it.

Hitler did it, Mussolini did it.

We have been here before.

Reform UK deputy leader Richard Tice claimed “this Labour government has allowed the biggest influx of migrants in British history”.

He’s not explained what that claim’s based on, but neither we nor the Migration Observatory can find data to support it.

The far right will, of course, treat the Paul Doyle case very differently from one where the accused is darker-skinned or foreign or both. The rest of us must not. That’s kind of the point.

They made £3.2bn profit in the UK.

They paid -£12.4m in tax.

This is why there is no money.

Coverage of idiots claiming ‘betrayal’ or ‘surrender’ isn’t just bad journalism, it’s a dereliction of our duty to explain things. I’d actually forgotten just how bad it got but here we are, straight back to treating liars & spivs like authorities of equal weight to experts & honest brokers.

The U.K. fishing industry - weaponised & then betrayed & then abandoned, by Johnson, Farage & the rest of them - is better off under Starmer’s deal than it was under Johnson’s. That’s not an opinion. It’s counting. Anyone claiming otherwise is a liar.

You can't get a council house because no one is building them.

Your wages are terrible because the billionaires profits have to be record.

As above for the rents.

And house prices are sky high because of all the landlords.

None of it is to do with immigrants.

Claims that a petition calling for an immediate general election has gained over 6 million signatures have been shared widely on social media.

But this isn’t right. A petition, which was debated in Parliament last year, has just over 3 million signatures.

The cruelty is the point. The banal, vicious, performative cruelty. Turns out ‘anti-woke’ just meant anti-decency, anti-humanity & anti-rule of law.

A Daily Mail front page which has been edited to include an image of Keir Starmer and Jimmy Savile has been circulating online.

But the paper has confirmed this picture was never published, and it’s likely AI.

If Adolf Hitler was alive Donald Trump would be inviting him to the White House and telling him to build more Concentration Camps because he had lots of American Citizens he wanted to send.

A photo of a sign telling people not to walk their dogs in an “Islamic area” has been shared online with claims such signs are becoming “more common”.

But the image is from 2014 and we’ve seen no reports of the same or similar signs appearing recently.

The only nation on the planet to create a 'VIP Lane' to funnel money to friends and family of the Conservatives for supplying bogus second hand products at vast profits to themselves was the UK.

All the money should be recovered and everybody involved should be in jail.
