“Ah, just one more thing, sir. You’re blowing up those boats, saying they’re filled with drugs headed for the US. But then you go and pardon the guy who brought in 400 tons of cocaine. That’s billions of doses. Help me understand that.”

Huge respect to the papers for finding both an 88 year old worried about the tax bill on her 6 bedroom Kensington house and a 20 year old fretting about only being able to save £12k a year tax free.
Top work all around. These are not easy case studies to find.

Many newspapers and politicians have been calling yesterday's fiscal statement a 'Budget for Benefits Street'. Here's three reasons why that is not accurate 🧵

Trump bought Boeing bonds while giving them billions in contracts. He bought Intel bonds after directing the government to take 10% of the company. He bought Meta bonds while pushing a META-friendly policy. He's not a president. He's an inside trader.😠

More than 700,000 homes across the ten English councils now governed by Reform UK are projected to face medium or higher flood risk by the middle of the century...

That is roughly one in five households in the party’s local strongholds.
Drowning in denial: one in five homes in Reform UK heartlands faces flooding in 25 years
Even as the party rolls back climate action, Reform-controlled councils sit on some of England’s worst rising flood risks

Today we’ll get latest net immigration figures - They’ll show immigration for work is plummeting.

Why is this not part of the discussion on Rachel Reeves balancing her books & stalled growth?

For every 100,000 drop in net immigration, the OBR adds £7bn to the deficit. #r4today

Nope, we can’t now go back to “just reporting news”, because of the huge number of MP and journalists who spent the last decade angrily explaining that the Labour Party is rammed with self-indulgent wankers who disastrously want to ensure children are fed, to show off how pure and virtuous they are.

Neoliberal IFS wants govt to ditch the triple lock on state pension.

Silence on corporate welfare, taxing the rich/corporations.

UK state pension is almost the worst in Europe.
2m retirees live in poverty. 110,000 a year die in fuel poverty.

How many pensioners does the IFS kill?

The UK must remove the pension triple lock
With each economic shock, it ratchets up the value of state retirement payments relative to average earnings

All is not well at Kent County Council (KCC). Reform UK, having taken charge at KCC...

...are now faced with exactly the same problems as their Conservative predecessors; funding social care, funding Special Educational Needs (SEN), and fixing potholes.
Are standards of civility falling at Reform Kent County Council?

Reform love free speech while being perpetually offended any time someone asks them a very basic question.

It's a curious paradox.

Why doesn't he just laugh and say, "Of course he isn't" instead of getting so cross.
‘Is Nigel Farage a Russian asset?’
‘Are you seriously asking me that?’

If you need proof that when Reform UK politicians wave the 🇬🇧Union Flag🇬🇧, it's not patriotism, it's just manipulation.

The Reform Party leader, waving the Union Jack in this photo was literally a Russian Spy.

As for Farage’s use of racist slurs being confined to his childhood - well, that's not what Alan Sked, the founder of UKIP, claimed in this 2014 interview.

He says here that Farage was using the "n" word as late as 1997.

Farage would have been about 33 at time.
