Rightly lots of debates about growth this weekend - rightly because it was low productivity growth that saw wages entirely flatline during the 2010s.

Taskmaster is the most consistently funny show on television/streaming. This last season was unexpectedly fantastic.

President Zelenskyy is thanking again other leaders for their support. How about we all thank him and all Ukrainians. They are fighting Putin and keeping us safe. If Putin wins we all lose and Europe is finished.
Thank you President Zelenskyy and all Ukrainians 🇺🇦🙏

Meanwhile you are all ignoring that Russia is in your White House.
Or maybe you just don’t care.
Europe does though. I don’t think Americans realise what the fallout is going to be. Or probably don’t care.

The GOP is in chaos.
Now is the time for Dem leadership to unite our big tent and produce a bold, progressive plan for the future of our country.

The BBC is in crisis with many calling for it to be broken up and political attacks at home and abroad - time to save it from interference by partisan elites by putting the public truly at the heart of our public service broadcasting and mutualising it. Democracy not Donald must be its future!

Maybe Keir should demand the heads of major US news networks any time they imply Britain is on the brink of civil war or that we live under sharia law. Or does it not work both ways?

A family friend was telling us about what her husband shared about his experience in Broadview before he was deported back to Mexico. She's been sharing to friends and family because she's just in disbelief & horror what her husband told her. She wasn't able to talk to him until he was in Mexico.
