"I'd rather risk dying abroad than risk funding hospitals at home"

Wealthy Dubai residents race back to UAE to avoid tax bills Some risk spending too few days in the emirate and too many in the UK

Tax exiles stuck in London desperately trying to get *back* to Dubai to avoid becoming tax resident in the UK? Just great stuff. giftarticle.ft.com/giftarticle/...

This is a good analogy. Very useful in carefully controlled settings for specific usages, but unfortunately being widely inserted into everything and used without training or PPE and poisoning a lot of things and people and we’re going to pay a tonne of money to remove it safely in the future

As a hard working British person, can I please ask politicians to stop speaking for me? Some people can’t work, others aren’t allowed to. I don’t mind my taxes being used to support these people!

Have a lovely day, everyone.

TUC Women’s Conference 2026 The NUJ’s motion highlighting the harm caused to women by far right, racist and sexist rhetoric passed at this year’s conference.

Read our report from the first day of #TUCWomen2026, where the NUJ delegation highlighted the harm to women caused by anti-immigrant and racist rhetoric, and the importance of ethical reporting.

The world is in a perilous state. But there's a new issue of Viz on sale today, and while that may not particularly alleviate geopolitical tensions, at least it probably won't make them very much worse

I’m glad we’re not going to war with a fundamentalist death cult.

The same technological pinpoint accuracy that was used to slaughter children in Gaza now being used to slaughter children in Iran.

Spectacular levels of embarrassing incoherence and stupidity from Badenoch on the radio at the minute

A lot of people say AI isn't very good for the world and its outputs are routinely unreliable, but these haters fail to see how it's revolutionizing how we incinerate schoolchildren.

Another 'intervention' that went swimmingly

China spying arrests raise awkward questions about Labour Party links Sir Keir Starmer’s government is trying to deepen economic ties with Beijing

Ooft! Joani Reid claimed: “I am not part of my husband’s business activities.” However, two of her husband's consultancy businesses gave her consultancy business interest free loans with no fixed repayment terms.

Quite enjoying that this year's Premier League is basically going to be determined by shithousery. Top "Greatest League in the World" content

*sigh*

A lot better than the present shit show!

After losing in court one can now safely mention that the Müller brand of milk products is owned by an AfD (Germany's officially declared "extreme right wing" party) supporting billionaire. Whose giant family relocated to Switzerland in 2003 btw, to avoid 30% inheritance tax when he passes.

Rooting for five random people on the Foxborough, Massachusetts Select Committee taking down and humiliating FIFA, its most recent "Peace Prize" winner Donald Trump, and his buddy, Patriots owner Robert Kraft, at the world's biggest stage in less than two weeks

What’s precious about this is her pretending she lives in Dubai to report about it rather than because of its lovely zero percent income tax rate.

Joani Reid MP @JoaniReid Proud to meet four heroes in Parliament today. Sandie Peggie, the Darlington Nurses and Jennifer Melle. They have shown tremendous courage and bravery in challenging a warped ideology and a culture of virtue signalling that rewards institutional cowardice. Thankfully, the tide is

Joani Reid MP @JoaniReid Our Home Affairs Select Committee report on the Maccabi Tel Aviv fan ban has been published. An extraordinary and unjustified decision that exposed serious failures within West Midlands Police.

Joani Reid MP @JoaniReid My column in the Herald on Sunday: the Scottish grooming gangs inquiry is welcome. We must also confront how our third sector has become institutionally corrupted to the point where it sides with SNP ministers instead of standing with women and girls

Joani Reid MP @JoaniReid Follow The SNP are taking the biscuit. They chose to turn Glasgow into sanctuary for asylum seekers through their own virtue-signalling policies, and now they want the Home Office to bail them out.

for anyone wondering why there’s so much unbridled joy on ScotPol Bluesky about the arrest of a Scottish Labour MP’s husband for spying for China, take your pick

‘He has made the transition from journalist to paid state influencer.’

Labour MP's husband arrested on suspicion of spying for China

Joani Reid who suggested Corbyn was a Russian asset despite zero evidence? Her husband? Ah fuck, she's gonna be LIVID.

Once again remember the following:

Rich people aren't where money comes from, they are where money accumulates and where, if not taxed back into the economy, it gets stagnant and useless.

We're spending money on war and AI and not hospitals because that's what rich dickheads want.

This, of course, is the dude that worked tirelessly to foist the costly, dodgy and unpopular West Ham Olympic stadium move on us all. To paraphrase the chant, "You sold your soul/for this shitbag"

Mothers campaign group to leave Newham flats Members of a women's group occupying flats in a council estate near east London's Olympic Park are told by a court to leave the premises.

"Sir" Robin Wales is the guy who tried to force a bunch of single mothers living in temporary accommodation to move miles away from Newham - the Focus E15 campaign

They then occupied social housing that had been left empty for years on his watch www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-engl...

quite like how this article starts with "Robin Wales attacked Labour for lacking the courage to sort out public finances", and then goes on to describe how Robin Wales wasted fucktons of public money as Newham mayor www.standard.co.uk/news/politic...

Yep. Print is still the best way to read.

Iran war heralds era of AI-powered bombing quicker than ‘speed of thought’ Speed and scale of US military’s AI war planning raises fears human decision-making may be sidelined

This is horrifying because it implies the Iranian school mistargeting was down to Claude layer in Palantir systems. What’s more horrifying is that if the rest of the article is accurate AI was a massive force multiplier for US/Israel strikes.

Head of Police Federation of England and Wales arrested on suspicion of corruption Mukund Krishna arrested by City of London police along with two other national board members
