No, the PM hasn’t said the pension will be reduced to 80% but someone’s sharing a video with a doctored soundtrack.

The PM hasn’t said state pension will be reduced in April 2026 – Full Fact
There’s no evidence that pensioners will only receive 80% of their pension from next April, as has been claimed online.

"The idea of deporting people with settled status is disgusting, and anyone proposing it should be immediately drummed out of polite society. Breaking promises made in good faith to our friends and neighbours is racist, extremist and immoral."
I'm basically shouting at the sky here, but still.

It’s racist, it’s extremist and it’s immoral
The right is still calling for deportations, and the government is still being cowardly about it. Also: London’s first green belt; some notes on a shark; and some news, on my next book.

Listening on @LBC and it is disturbing & wholly the wrong tone for this day. The fact they warned people dissent would not be tolerated & only applause welcome spoke volumes. To then listen to the rewriting of history & denial of genocide was awful. It’s a victory parade instead of a day of peace.

Divorced, Defected, Danny! My SKETCH of Reform recruiting the next MP to inevitably fall out with Farage.
Divorced, Defected, Danny Kruger | Robert Hutton | The Critic Magazine

Nigel Farage:
"Children who have two stable parents have a better chance in life... The most stable relationships, the ones that last the longest, tend to be between men & women... There's an awful lot of kids in the country not getting the kind of start... they deserve."
Farage has two ex-wives.
