My Italian uncle just wished me "Happy birthday, dearest Granddaughter."

New petition: Stop new powers limiting repeat protests
Withdraw proposals to give police powers to restrict or ban “repeat protests". We think these measures undermine the right to free expression, peaceful assembly and democratic participation in the UK. Peaceful protest is a vital part of holding Government to account. Defend free speech.

I asked him if he'd support a wealth tax on assets - and he refused to answer the question.
