Nigel Farage uses private company to pay less tax on GB News earnings Exclusive: Reform leaderโ€™s use of personal services firm is a practice criticised across the political spectrum

โ€œFarage claimed last year to have โ€œbought a houseโ€ in his constituency but the property is actually owned in the name of his partner, meaning he legally avoided higher-rate stamp duty on the purchase of an additional home โ€“ given he already owns other propertiesโ€

Project 2025: The right-wing conspiracy to torpedo global climate action The GOP threatens to weaponize a potential second Trump term against any and all domestic climate action. But what happens in the United States doesnโ€™t stay in the United States.

Well, no, that's the cover story (and too many buy it).
The real reason is far worse: thebulletin.org/2024/08/proj...

EU blocks Britainโ€™s attempts to join pan-European trading bloc The PEM convention would reduce exportersโ€™ post-Brexit difficulties with supply chains

The Commission isn't keen on the UK joining PEM. This, I believe, reflects a view in Brussels that anything left out of the Lancaster House package is, for now, off the table. Understandably frustrating for the UK govt, but unlikely to shift before the next summit.

Exposed: Reform UK doesnโ€™t know how government spending works Reform UK just confused a procurement framework with a spending scandal โ€“ and revealed they donโ€™t understand government

Reform UK has uncovered the scandal of a โ€œwastefulโ€ ยฃ350m contract.

Small problem: itโ€™s not a contract. Or ยฃ350m. Or a scandal.

Hereโ€™s how they got it completely wrong.

This bizarre market mechanism only rewards producers, traders and speculators... breaking the link between gas and other sources of electricity could bring down the cost of our energy bills dramatically...it's high time we did this.

I have a video of this arrest that I was given permission to share. I havenโ€™t been able to do so because I canโ€™t find a good free software to blur faces and I donโ€™t have the time to learn how to do it manually. If anyone has any suggestions, Iโ€™d appreciate it.

Two-thirds of global warming since 1990 caused by worldโ€™s โ€˜wealthiest 10%โ€™ - Carbon Brief Of the 0.61C increase in global average temperatures over 1990-2020, a new study estimates that 65% was due to the emissions of the wealthiest 10%.

I dislike analyses like these, which claim to estimate the "share" of climate change that is "caused" by the wealthiest 10%, 1%, or whatever.

They are rarely what they seem to be -- especially in popular media.

By focusing on immigration and the Reform UK agenda, Labour effectively vindicate the belief that migrants are the reason they aren't better off, with better public services. They are creating more Reform UK voters.
It's morally wrong and politically suicidal.
