I'm fed up with politicians jumping ship whenever it suits them. It's happening too often.
They should step down and an election should be called.

Nadim Zahawi arrived in the UK from Iraq as a child refugee. His family claimed asylum once they were here. Today he has joined Reform who will stop all in country asylum applications. Under his new party, his own family fleeing persecution would be immediately deported.

Nigel Farage welcomes the experience Nadhim Zahawi brings to Reform.

Zahawi previously made tax payers pay to heat his stables and 'accidentally' paid millions less in tax than he should have. That experience?

Shortage of NHS stroke specialists resulting in thousands dead or disabled, say doctors Exclusive: Lack of consultants in UK health service means patients do not get drugs or surgery in time, say senior medics

Shortage of NHS stroke specialists in England resulting in death or disability.

Between 10,000 and 20,000 patients died or sustained a serious disability because of treatment delays.

Lives destroyed by fiscal rules, austerity, appeasement of the rich and forcing people to go private.

Did you know that the UK, which gets to spend all of England’s revenue as well as about 40% of the revenue of Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, fails to balance its books or reduce its deficit? Meanwhile the Scottish Government, with very limited devolved powers, balances its books every year.πŸ‘‡

Passenger services brought into public ownership in name only.

Privatised security and catering suppliers, Β£150m profits last year.

Rolling stock privatised, public purse to pay Β£3bn+ to lease it.

Lucrative rail freight remains privatised.

2025 generation round-up!

Wind power was the main producer with 29.7% of the year's generation (but I thought they didn't work?) πŸ₯°

37.3% of the grid was powered from renewables vs 26.8% fossil fuels. πŸ’ͺ

.... and the lights didn't go out 😜

Meanwhile nuclear came in at 11.8%

In the 6th largest economy, 103000 people died in poverty in 2024.

120,000 died in fuel poverty, couldn't afford adequate heating.

Ethnic minorities, pensioners, single working age adults more likely to die in poverty.

Poverty and death sentence is a political choice as govts appease the rich.

Charity warns of rise in 'clothing poverty' among working people The Sharewear Clothing Scheme in Nottingham says demand is so high it is running out of clothes.

Charity warns of rise in 'clothing poverty'.

Profiteering and cuts in real wages force people rely on charity.

Charity provides food, clothing, air ambulance, hospices and more in the 6th largest economy.

Chlorinated chicken row as US seeks leverage over stalled UK tech pact Britain is facing renewed pressure from the White House to allow American chlorinated chicken and hormone-treated meat into UK supermarkets.

The 51st state.

Trump demands that the UK allows American chlorinated chicken and hormone-treated meat into its supermarkets.

UK already agreed to pay more for US drugs, reduced tax on private equity managers, considering cutting tax on tech companies.

'Tacking back control', someone said.

Bottled water drinkers ingest 90,000 more microplastic particles each year New review finds people who drink tap water ingest only about 4,000 microplastic particles a year

Daily consumers of bottled water ingest over 90,000 more microplastic particles than people who drink tap water.

There are no warnings on bottles.

Either companies do not test their products, or conceal the harms to boost profits and exec pay.

What do regulators do?
