What do these corporations have in common?
Netflix
Ford
Tesla
T-Mobile
Duke Energy
DISH Network
Metlife
Dominion Energy
United States Steel
In recent years, they all paid their execs more than they paid in taxes.
This is what a corporate-rigged system looks like.

To combat climate change, we should shut down oil drilling, increase fuel duty and minimise taxes on electric car usage.
The opposite of the British Labour party’s actions and plans.
Just #VoteGreen and let’s stop the eco-vandalism!

I think it is 'excellent' that #r4today devotes its precious time to the 40th anniversary of Blind Date rather than in-depth coverage of Reform's links to Russian money or the Hong Kong fire toll.

Labour have decided that electric car owners are to pay 3p per mile in tax. “How are you going to measure and collect this?”
“Umm, we don’t know but we have three years to work it out”.

The difference between Scotland and England at the World Cup- Scotland are just happy to be there for the party. England know that they will win it - until they lose to Germany or Argentina. On penalties. And Scotland will just party on. No Scotland, no party!

Primary schools should start teaching children modern languages when they are 5. Most children should be moderately fluent in at least two modern European languages by the time they start secondary school.

Brexit happened because of immigration and economics scare stories.
After Brexit, immigration has soared and the economy shrunk.
