She's just awful 😞

During World War 2 the maximum Income Tax in the UK was 99.25%.

Until 1971 it stayed at 90%.

Now it is just 47%.

But people are richer and better paid than ever.

Labour have lost Caerphilly after a century of domination, and lost badly. Labour has had unpopular governments before, but not like this. Expect a bloodbath in May.

Plaid Cymru ousts Labour in Caerphilly byelection Rhun ap Iorwerth’s party, which wants Wales to become independent, seizes Senedd seat after Reform UK challenge

The important thing here is that for all their bluster about polls, Reform were only second. That's still too many votes for them though.
Obviously Labour have screwed up over the last year

MPs demand lifetime driving bans and stricter phone laws to address justice system "failing" families of those killed in collisions "This report shines a light on the urgent need for reform.

Really good to see calls for more lifetime driving bans, & stiffer and more consistent sentencing from the parliamentary walking and cycling group (who don't seem to be here yet).

We must act now: without a written constitution, Reform UK will have carte blanche to toxify our nation | Goerge Monbiot It means breaking with hundreds of years of tradition, but it can’t wait. As hard-right figures spread division and laud autocrats, a fail-safe is vital, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

Nothing else has worked – so Starmer and Reeves are finally telling the truth about Brexit | Rafael Behr It is the right way to go, but taking the long way round to such an obvious point has cost Labour precious time and credibility, says Guardian columnist Rafael Behr

Farage “will argue that the heroic liberation dream was traduced by cowardice in the implementation but even that puts him in complicity with disappointment. Simpler to change the subject”

So, don’t let him. His lies got us into this mess. Only truth gets us out.

1. It's fascinating to see, as you can from the responses to the post below, how many daft things people believe, to justify their continued meat eating. So let's examine a few of the common myths in the following thread. 🧵

Hit-and-run driver who killed cyclist after afternoon of drinking jailed for 12 and a half years Danny Gibson was also banned from driving for 20 years, police saying the "reckless" driver "showed a complete disregard for human life"

A man who did not hold a driving licence and had been drinking all afternoon took his mother's car without permission and killed a cyclist in a collision, the drink driver who fled the scene after the fatal crash now jailed for 12 and a half years

Release the Gove Files!

Starmer & co are "saddened" the racist Israeli football hooligans can't attend a match in Birmingham, but aren't saddened by the genocide.
They care about the Maccabi hooligans' safety, but not about the safety of the public in Brum.

Maccabi Tel Aviv hooligans: lies, smears - and the truth Tel Aviv's police ban the city's derby after Maccabi hooligans rioted. You cannot make this sh*t up.

Those backing the ban on Maccabi Tel Aviv fans visiting Birmingham were smeared as antisemites.

Then Tel Aviv police banned the city's derby after riots.

This whole saga is defined by lies and smears.

Rachel Reeves set to launch ‘blitz on business bureaucracy’ to save firms £6bn Chancellor to tell business leaders at government’s first regional investment summit she plans to ‘cut pointless admin’

Rachel Reeves set to launch ‘blitz on business bureaucracy’ to save firms £6bn.

Translation - cut transparency, accountability, check on business abuses.

Govt may reduce public filing requirements for small companies. Expect more shell company abuses.

STOP REPEATING THE LIE THAT HAMAS KILLED 2 IDF SOLDIERS YESTERDAY.

They drove over an unexploded bomb, that had been dropped by Israel, in a bulldozer.

Israel used that as an excuse to murder 44 Palestinians.

Stop feeding Israel's lie.
