The government must ensure fair distribution of income 'The average real wage of workers has hardly moved from the 2008 level whilst bosses never had it so good.'

Richest 1% has more wealth than 70% of UK population combined.

Top 20% own two-thirds of wealth, receive 36% of income.

Bottom 20% own 0.5% of wealth, receive 9% of income.

Can't grow economy or have social stability.

Poverty is political choice. Which political party wants to address this?

This is a lie.

There are many criticisms you might sensibly and truthfully make of the Sentencing Council and the Sentencing Guidelines. Iโ€™ve been making them for years.

But this is an outright lie. Pure fabrication. A fraud on the public.

Home Secretary tells Sky News that โ€œthere is a gap in the lawโ€ when it comes to frequent, repeated protests on the same issue. Hence she will be giving police greater powers to move them to another location or time.

NEW

Freedom is just another word for "a gap in the law"

The Home Secretary wants to ban more things

By me

Police make more than 440 arrests at Palestine Action protest in London Officers arrest activists at silent vigil in support of banned organisation, as demos go ahead despite PMโ€™s pleas

Over 400 arrests of protesters in London thanks to the governmentโ€™s refusal to admit that their decision to proscribe Palestine Action as a terrorist group has been a disaster

The Labour gov has so far arrested well over 1,000 people for holding up signs

Just got a haircut, and my lovely barber, a Turkish guy who employs 6 people, and has a wife who's an IVF technician, is shutting up shop and moving to another country because his Indefinite Leave to Remain is under threat by these venal, stupid, posturing politicians, left and right.

Itโ€™s easy to say that this is the last desperate hurrah of a dying party, but can we be clear: Trumpโ€™s ICE agents are literally kidnapping people, detaining them without due process in concentration camps (yes, this is the right term) and 1000s have disappeared. These are fascist practices.

The Prime Minister just announced plans to change how the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) is interpreted by judges

โš ๏ธ A dangerous move that risks weakening everyone's human rights in the UK

So here's a reminder:

The ECHR has become a convenient scapegoat for challenges around migration and sovereignty.

The rhetoric is about ending the disparity between refugees & other routes to remain in the UK. Ok, I donโ€™t agree, but if you are going to insist on that, then end the disparity that denies asylum seeking people the right to work etc.

You canโ€™t impose an income threshold when youโ€™ve banned work!

Democrats need to hold the line and let Republicans own this shutdown. Then we can get back to the matter at hand: the Epstein files. Watch Rick Wilson explain on MSNBC:

Absolutely right from Streeting.

But then government/Mahmood need to make crystal clear this applies to people who have arrived since 2021 and are working in NHS/care right now -and that government is not going to change the rules and leave them at the mercy of a future Reform/Conservative govt
