Rachel Reeves says there’s a “hole” in the public finances.
A new decade-long Brexit study explains it:
a 6–8% hit to GDP – that's £180bn-£240bn a year – means less tax, less investment and less money for everything else.
Brexit made Britain poorer. Much poorer.

Once every 20 years or so, the director-general of the BBC is forced to resign for being insufficiently rightwing. Alastair Milne in 1987. Greg Dyke in 2004. Tim Davie in 2025. The great irony is that the BBC was in all cases profoundly biased towards established power. But just not biased enough …

Yes we've all felt immensely pissed off with the BBC from time to time
But it's clear that the attacks on it come from fascists and proto-fascists who want to shut down our powerful public-service broadcaster
For the sake of democracy we all need to defend the BBC as an institution

Have just read our projected budget for 2026/27 and I STRONGLY endorse this message. We don't have any billionaire backers. It's regular monthly donations from normal folk that keep the ship afloat.
Just to add, if you are able to offer financial support to the Good Law Project it would be a v fine thing to do …
For too long, sporting bodies, @cam.ac.uk societies, and those who shrink in the face of hate, have adopted the blanket approach of excluding trans people from sport. Enough. We are suing the England and Wales Cricket Board. goodlaw.social/qvf6

Over 40% of corn grown in Indiana is used to make ethanol that cars burn. One acre of corn yields about 16,500 vehicle-miles per year of ethanol, which sounds high until you realize that one acre of solar yields about 2,700,000 vehicle-miles per year: 16,000% more driving for a given plot of land.
