Usually those that voted for this will not be the ones affected by it (instead they will be the assumed comfortable mortgage free individuals).

Indeed. ยฃ600,000 and ยฃ466,000 are actually quite different numbers if you're currently trying to get on the property ladder. And that's just inflation, not taking into account the stagnating wages post 2008.

Dr Alice Roberts on Threads writing: โ€œSomeone should start making โ€œIโ€™ve been trolled by Graham Linehanโ€ badges. Iโ€™m a proud member of that club too!โ€
She screenshots one conversation of Graham Lineham attacking Victoria Coren Mitchell and then two conversations of him attacking her.

I would much rather have a fair income tax rise than all the sneak / subtle taxes that are utterly confusing to deal with as a RegularPersonโ„ข
At least with income tax it is progressive and we have PAYE.

Interview: `Othello' comes into his own at National A co-production of `Othello' between the German director Peter Stein and Sam Mendes of the National Theatre offers both a fascinating contrast in cultural approaches and some surprising similarities

Fascinating interview on that production from The Independent www.independent.co.uk/life-style/i...

This review sent me down a rabbit hole of articles about how in the heck we never had a black Othello at The National until 1997...

It's OK, he used the power weapons quite liberally in the Colosseum, so made the best use of it. I have conversed weapons before only to find out it's all for naught.

Houses without lounges are a reality for renters Nearly a third of homes advertised on a property sharing website had no living room.

Of course I doโ€ฆ I think youโ€™ve misread my post. If people in Caerphilly had been told to vote Labour to stop Reform (a fair assumption based on the last election) then the Plaid / Labour vote may have been split, allowing in Reform. It was a good thing that Plaid stopped that happening.

What kind of evidence? The kind that would have suggested that you vote Labour in Caerphilly, which might have ended with Reform being elected with a larger left vote split?
You definitely should vote Labour if it's an obvious choice between them and Reform, but it's often more complicated.

McSweeneyโ€™s instincts are morally disastrous. Under his tutelage, the party has literally got itself into a position where it does not know if racism is good or bad. This would be unforgivable even if it was electorally effective, but it is actually electorally disastrous. As John Springford wrote this week, mainstream parties who try to ape the extremist right fail, because they alienate their natural supporters while failing to attract their opponents.
