Powerful new Banksy mural on the Royal Courts of Justice building shows a judge hitting a protester lying on the ground with his gavel, with blood splattering the placard.

The UK electricity is already the most expensive in the world.
Price set to rise again in October as Ofgem's pricing formula lets companies rip people off.

Who protects the people?

We have had a report saying two women walking up to a protest today at BAe Samlesbury were stopped by Lancashire Police and advised to remove their t-shirts that say 'Free Palestine', as it may "breach the proscription order".

And so it begins.

I'm appealing the UK Govt's refusal of my FOI request over Rachel Reeves' correspondence with the NAO regarding the UK's Free Zones. The UK duopoly's nationwide rollout of 12 deregulated freeports and 74 SEZs is a violation of UK citizens' sovereignty.

So all the hundreds of millions his mates made was down to Biden. They'll know who to thank then.

Absolute joke, and just lazy. Anybody could have brokered this deal if it means giving Putin everything he wants and Ukraine is supposed to just go along with it!

As per @goodlawproject.bsky.social Wes Streeting has bagged another Β£58,000 from sources connected to the private health sector since taking over at the health department.

But what do his backers expect in return?

Yesterday Mark Carney was told, β€œMr Carney, there’s a genocide in Palestine”.

β€œI’m aware,” Carney told the protester, β€œThat’s why we have an arms embargo.”

This has really, really upset Benjamin Netanyahu, so don't RT unless you hate him.

This is blatant corruption by the Trump regime (and crime family) - in the middle of a financial crisis that Trump’s trade war triggered, costing average Americans their pensions.

(1/4) The ongoing market response to last week’s US tariff announcement was both predictable and preventable. Even if you agree with the premise of these tariffs, every reasonable effort should be made to give US companies sufficient time to adapt.
