Refugee from Twitter, arrived aboard a small boat. On the beach in the East Riding of Yorkshire and ready to hoist the sail and clear off out at the first sign of trouble. Not many harbours of refuge since Brexit - where to go?

Stamp duty revenue is expected to rise steadily to Β£26.5billion by 2029-30. Abolition, as proposed by the Tories, would take those funds away from public services - probably without saving house buyers any money as house prices rise.

I've always been glued to the window, trying to identify which part of the planet is unfurling below, transfixed by the beauty of clouds, or simply thrilled to be flying. I pity anyone for whom flight has become a dull, everyday experience. (I used to earn a living as a balloon pilot).

The police don't need *more* powers to make peaceful
protest criminal. They need *sensible* lawmaking - laws that are actually enforceable without regular mass arrest. There is a currently a crisis of legitimacy in policing, and mass arrest of grannies and vicars for holding placards isn't helping.

There is not one principle Starmer isn’t prepared to abandon if it’s politically expedient for him.

To be a charge of Malicious Comminications the communication has to be β€œindecent or grossly offensive”. We all have our opinions on the visages of Trump and Epstein, but to claim they are β€œindecent or grossly offensive” is laughable

I was offended by this malicious communication, which was horrifyingly obscene and clearly intended to cause me anxiety and distress. Throw the book at these people!

Let's all join the reform Party and bugger it up. Let's be the enemy within. We'll turn our backs and wave EU flags during every speech.

I'm so relieved to see these people arrested for malicious communication.
The photo of Trump with Epstein projected on to Windsor Castle was indecent and grossly offensive.
It was clearly displayed in order to cause me anxiety and distress. I can only hope no one else suffered harm like this.

@georgemonbiot.bsky.social is absolutely spot on here about how far Starmer and his changed Labour Party are willing to go.

To make up for the Β£100B annual cost of brexit, Starmers labour party are coming after the sick & disabled for Β£6B of it.

WEALTH IS UNDERTAXED!

There’s over Β£50 billion pa in additional revenue available if the government taxed wealth properly and justly - and that’s without making the pips squeak.
Labour will be trounced at the next election unless it gets its act together on tax.

WOAH!
He’s told Starmer not to rejoin anything. He hasn’t.
He advised Starmer to grovel to Trump. He did.
He’s a friend of Putin’s tame oligarchs. He advised Ukraine should commit to ceasefire before Russia
He took Starmer to visit Palantir clients of his company Global Counsel.
He’s dangerous!

β€˜Worse than the Tories’: cultural figures question Labour plans for arts in schools Government must scrap English baccalaureate to make arts more accessible to working-class children, critics say

When the imagination is discarded the results are people like dead-eyed Keir Starmer and robotic Rachel Reeves.

In 1970 the UK and Norway were roughly equal, almost no debt, and owned all their Public Services.

Now the UK owns nothing and has Β£3tn of debt.

While Norway still owns everything and has the equivilant per person of Β£10tn.

That's how privatisation 'works'.
