Take Big Money Out of Our Politics British politics is awash with money from super rich donors. In 2023, two-thirds of all private donations came from just 19 people. These so-called β€˜mega donors’ enjoy privileged access to political p...

"Some 86 per cent of people said that the 20mph speed limit that applies in most inner London boroughs – except Greenwich – should also apply to cyclists."

Tell that to Trump. It’s British Jobs that will be lost when the US stop buying steel forged in the UK. It doesn’t matter if it’s an Indian company that owns the steel works

16 things Trump and team did this week In his third week back in office, Trump took action on issues from transgender competitors in women's sports to Gaza.

A single one of these actions is crazy to do all of this harm in one week is scary as hell. How can the world survive 4 more years of this? www.bbc.com/news/article...
