Plus sides to today: Two-child benefit scrapped. Largely progressive tax implications. Good market reaction. No big spending cuts. Nightmare prospect of cutting funding to net zero etc avoided. It's a left-wing budget. Those who say there's no difference between Labour and Tories are bananas.

I hope the BBC will challenge Nigel Farage today over the economic damage caused by the Brexit he championed.
He needs to be held to account for the damage he's done instead of always being given an easy ride.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

It's been over 9 months since the Palisades and Eaton Fires tore through Los Angeles. We asked for federal support, but we haven’t heard a word from the White House.
Not a single offer.
Is this what leadership looks like? Abandoning the American people when they call for help?

AOC is a goddess.
A bus of Bronx middle schoolers pulled up to the Capitol this morning for a long-planned field trip just a few hours after the government shut down.
All Capitol tours were cancelled as the guides can’t work in shutdown.
So I escorted them in myself and gave them a personal tour. They were great!

This ruling is a joke.
PPE Medpro will go bankrupt and the Government won't get a penny.
Michelle Mone should have to pay the £122m personally.
RT if you want to see her pay it all back.

President Trump and Congressional Republicans just shut down the government because they refused to stop your health care costs from rising.
Let me be clear: Republicans are in charge of the White House, House, and Senate. This is their shutdown.

Sky News says police are "overwhelmed by the numbers". Met coped perfectly well with 2x as many at the pro-Gaza rally, 5x as many at the anti-Brexit march, and 15x as many at London Pride.
They're not overwhelmed by the numbers. They're overwhelmed by the ratio of violent thugs in those numbers.

The thing is, as much as they want to immortalize Charlie Kirk to justify and escalate their platform of hate, they’ll forget about him in a month and move onto something else.
Hate is a fire.
It has no memory.
It doesn’t need a reason.
It just needs to burn.

I just saw a comment that said "I don't support what happened to Charlie, but Charlie supported what happened to Charlie."
THAT ... that's what I've been trying to put into words.

Petition to get Farage to release his tax returns. He claims to stand for ‘the country’, even when asking foreign powers to control us. Let’s see him start proving his loyally to us, the voters.

Nigel Farage is a fascist, Reform UK is a sewer.
All that is required to beat him is a decent opposition.
It is very, very achievable.

“Nigel Farage says….” has been the headline of the decade.
Look at what he does, ffs.
Look at his tax affairs.
Look at his grifting.
Look at his lies.
Look at his prejudice.
Look at his allies.
Look at his manifesto.
Look at his Brexit.
He is the embodiment of personal greed and national failure.
