As political scandals go, a grubby backroom deal to, errrr, lift 450,000 children out of poverty is at least a novel one.
Headline on The World at One just now:
"Sir Keir Starmer has denied putting the Labour Party before the country by ending the two-child benefit cap".
Can we please go back to reporting the actual news, not someone's partisan take on it?

I am so tired of these ghouls in parliament. Making tiresome, tiresome, badly recited jokes while making us poorer and the future bleaker.
Watch as Rachel Reeves brands Greens leader Zack Polanski a 'keen hypnotherapist'

I agree- weak deputy Speaker not exerting control. Budgets are usually heard in respectful silence in the house. When did we all become so uncouth?
No point listening to the budget not least because the racket in the house you’d be more likely to witness in football stadiums. Disgraceful conduct

Worlds richest man thinks he doesn’t have privilege 🧐
White privilege is just a fancy way of saying “you don’t have to deal with racism”, it doesn’t mean you have a Rolls Royce and a staff of servants.
It does mean you don’t have to worry about ICE tackling you in the hallway because a neighbor said you “look illegal.”

PFI is where Private Investment build NHS buildings and then the NHS rents it.
The result is the NHS permanently has 'no money' because it has to pay huge rent costs and the Government goes, "Oh dear we will have to cut services."

China has brought millions out of poverty. The US has not – by choice.
The UK is following the US model. Wealth concentrated in fewer hands. 24m can't attain minimum standard of living, real average wage unchanged since 2008, public services eroded, profiteering is rife.

"When Prophecy Fails" is gripping, an in-depth social study that has served as a key basis for the psychological concept of cognitive dissonance.
But a new study that examines the unsealed papers of one of the book's authors claims that Prophecy leans on lies and serious manipulation.

It’s one of the most influential social psychology studies ever. Was it all a lie?
A classic book on UFO believers and their "cognitive dissonance" after aliens failed to land is called into question.
