We’re being asked by half the media & politicians to swallow the idea that known racist football hooligans should be allowed to rampage through our cities for NO OTHER REASON than that they happen to be Israeli.

Fuck. That.

This tax trap is killing youthful aspiration Little wonder the under-40s laud Margaret Thatcher: she valued hard work, unlike the rules that penalise them today

It is may be 3x average pay but 62% tax rate on earnings over Β£100,000 and cliff edge removal of childcare subsidies limit aspirations of upper middle classes bit.ly/49arr4e misleading to call it β€˜working hard’ not β€˜being lucky and clever’. Many work very hard on Β£12.21/hour 48 hours a week or more

A graphic reporting: fewest homicides in London since monthly records began. The number of homicides in London between January to September 2025 is the lowest in the first 9 months of any year since monthly records began in 2003.

Some politicians and commentators continue to denigrate London and talk our great city down, but the facts show a very different picture.

The number of homicides in London in the first nine months of 2025 was lower than in any year since monthly records began 22 years ago.

A bit like the shambles pensions and iht changes already is. It would be a logistical nightmare to get providers to do this, nevermind the politics of it all

My take on AEW ratings - I don’t fucking care at all. There will be some other dumb narrative next week and the week after. The quality of the shows is unbeatable. Losers looking to score troll points mean nothing if we ignore them and enjoy the golden age of pro wrestling. 🀼

Worth remembering that

Players representing their country tonight would be targets for deportation under both the Tories and Reform… but England fans rather back them than their own team effectively.

Starmer wouldn’t deport, he’d be celebrating these players.

But anyway what do I know.

feel like if you had a super long work day and you get home feeling exhausted but still make the healthy meal you had planned for dinner instead of just eating some slop then there should be a procession in your honour in your neighbourhood, and the mayor should give you the keys to the city

Sorry, but if you're saying those implausible and shallow Kemi Badenoch announcements constitute a good speech then you're part of the UK's political problem.

Same half-baked "tax cut good / international commitments bad" bearing no resemblance to well formed policy.

Gary Neville, "Brexit has had a devastating impact on this country"

"All these idiots out there spreading hate speech in any form, abuse in any form, we must stop promoting them"

"And get back to a country of love, peace and harmony"

"And become a team again"

Nigel Farage and his Reform UK treasurer (and former tax exile) Nick Candy must be relieved that one of their more generous donors doesn’t keep his promises.

β€œI’m moving – that is it,” Nigerian-born businessman Bassim Haidar told the Guardian in May last year after the previous government announced the end of the β€œnon-dom” tax regime (following which chancellor Rachel Reeves enacted the changes). β€œWhat’s the logic of me living in the UK when other countries are offering no taxes at all?” he wondered. β€œIn Monaco there are no taxes, and no inheritance tax.” He was reported to have established a β€œworking group” of 29 non-doms looking to up sticks before the start of the September 2024 school year.

Latest political donation declarations, however, show that Haidar gave Reform UK Β£200,000 in April this year. As laws introduced in 2009 require donors of such sums to be β€œresident, ordinarily resident and domiciled in the United Kingdom for the purposes of income tax”, it seems the entrepreneur has opted to stay put.

For yet another erstwhile non-dom, when push comes to shove, life in a country with a tax system turns out to be preferable to tax haven tedium

Are Reform UK getting donations from a tax exile - or has this guy just failed to fulfil his promise to leave the UK? (As most of them do). Via Private Eye:

Nigel Farage doesn’t think the Prime Minister should have free speech in this country. But he’ll tell foreigners that yours is somehow under threat from the Prime Minister. He’s a whiny little liar. Always has been. Always will be.
