Before 1965 companies in the UK paid Income Tax, just like a person.

That would mean they would all now be paying 47% tax, not the 25% Corporation Tax they pay now.

On top of that they paid an extra 10% profit tax.

So they'd be paying 52.3% tax instead of 25% if it was 1960.

We all desperately want to clear the courts backlog seeing victims withdraw from the criminal justice process.

But the backlog was caused by chronic underfunding, not juries.

Restricting jury trials would undermine our democracy and right to a fair trial, and may even be a false economy.

I’m gonna keep sharing these ovarian cancer symptoms whenever I see them.

I will add - from personal experience - diarrhoea and fatigue.

Get it checked! Remember, there’s no routine screening for ovarian cancer.
