Lord Bamford owes £500,000,000 to HMRC he has retired from the House of Lords and fled.
He expects his debt just like Michelle Mone's £232,000,000 debt to be written off.
We must recover every penny from these thieves, and toss them in jail.

Costa Rica has massively rewilded over recent decades. Has this led to the collapse of farming, rural society, or national wellbeing?

A single 400-year-old ancient oak produces 234,000 litres of oxygen a year while soaking up carbon dioxide, and can support more than 2,000 species of bird, insect, fungus, and lichen. Nature is amazing - we need more of it, not less. Please repost if you agree 🌳

Just Stop Oil protestor Gaie Delap, 77 has been sent to prison for Christmas

Out of that concern I’ve expressed an interest in the sale of the Observer and discussed the situation with the GMG.
