@rachelburden.bsky.social are you going to give a shout out to your namesake Rachel Reeves now that she has been independently backed up by the OBR who says she didn't miss lead the public. Particularly after C. Masons hatchet job on her!

@bbc5live.bsky.social wake up to money this morning discussed what if the budget had imposed exit taxes on the rich. WT... couldn't find much negative so made some up only it never happened. If that's not bias report against this government what is!!!

@rachelburden.bskysocial
the issue with deepseek is more about who ends up with power. In 3 years or so a few very wealthy people or countries will be fighting for ultimate control of society. Who will win and will they be at all interested in AI used for all of us or to increase inequality?

@alastaircampbell2.bsky.social interesting you took on Rorys challenge to think more about why young men are gripped by the populist agenda. Be interesting to have a restispolitics episode on this.

@zoejardiniere.bsky.social just came across your video youtu.be/toFk9C9hW-k?...

Thanks for educating me as I naively watched @restispolitics and your videos blows away their superficial and misleading interpretation of the issue. Well done 👏
Have they SOLVED the small boats crisis?
