If you are watching the Reform Party controlled Councils with their endless mishaps, resignations, fallouts, scandals, mismanagement and sheer comedic idiocy, but still thinking of making these clowns a national government, representing the UK on the global stage, you are literally insane.

I’m sorry, but can’t she just do more with less?

That’s the advice everyone else gets told, and apparently it’s supposed to be good enough for us.

In a functioning democracy with a decent press, these would be wall-to-wall headlines:

Fury as Farage Urges U.S. to Punish Britain

But no...

But she's a woman and working class and, plainly, not content with "her lot". Remember the furore about her going to the opera?

Rayner is where sexism and class prejudice intersect. If she ever came out as bi, the Telegraph front page would be a black box with a red "AAAAAAAAAAAARRRRGGGHHH!" on it.
Daily Telegraph today refers to A Rayner’s property “empire”. Whatever you think of her housing arrangements, I don’t think constituency house (bought for 375k in 2016), house in Hove, plus use of ministerial flat in London is an “empire”. Duke of Westminster wont fear a rival!

Back the Lib Dem plan to halve energy bills
Halve Energy Bills
The Lib Dem plan would break the link between gas prices and energy costs, so people can enjoy the benefits of cheap, clean power.

And you never should have done so.

Next steps that should already be underway:

- Equalise Capital Gains with Income Tax
- Replace Council Tax with a proper property-based system
- Tax net wealth over £10 million

It’s not radical. It’s overdue. Just get it done.

Trump’s $45 million birthday parade with its tanks and helicopters is an authoritarian ego trip. But the real show of force this weekend won't take place in D.C., it’ll happen in the streets as protesters gather nationwide to declare "No Kings in America!"

Most Brits think we should stay in the ECHR and protect our British-European values…

Makes perfect sense. And also-

1) It protects us from Trump-like behaviour with his own citizens

2) It underpins our criminal data-sharing with Europe.

Leave ECHR and we’d become a haven for criminals.

Every bit of this is gold.

Imagine being so impenetrably thick, so unremmittingly entitled, so irredeemably soured, that you dress like a giant lemon meringue and go on record, in print, forever, to complain that migrating to avoid tax has triggered your debilitating terror of orecchiette broccoli.

3.6% of all tax revenue in Switzerland comes from Wealth Tax.

That would £38bn in the UK, and Switzerland has 20% millionaires.

Have they left?

A 2% wealth tax in the UK would raise £40bn a year.

I have more than 410k followers on X and fewer than 63k on BlueSky.

Yet the same tweet about Russian money supporting the Far Right in Britain has been shared fewer than 100 times on X and more than 1,300 on BlueSky.

That's how much of a propaganda tool X has become.

Those who said we didn't need the EU or a European defence force because we had NATO are now seeing that if you can't rely on the latter you'll need the former. For the millionth time: In a world of nationalistic superpowers, Europe is a strong EU or nothing. We should be in it.

CBI: You want growth? Go green.

The net zero sector is growing three times faster than the overall UK economy, analysis has found, providing high-wage jobs across the country while cutting climate-heating emissions and increasing energy security.
