There’s one argument Starmer could make to save his skin – but he won’t dare do it | Jonathan Freedland Among those focusing on what the PM knew about Peter Mandelson are many who themselves knew plenty and chose to ignore it, says Guardian columnist Jonathan Freedland

"The Epstein files, which contain more than 38,000 references to Trump, his Mar-a-Lago estate and other related terms, seem set to bring down a national leader who is not mentioned by Epstein even once"

You mean a universal basic income? That would be a much fairer - and more transparent - way to issue the nation's currency.

Reclaim the moral compass: a call for courageous leaders - Greenpeace International It will take all of us to break through the fear and noise and show our leaders a better path.

I just signed an open letter joining the urgent call for peace, justice and a healthy future. We need to turn the volume up on a better moral compass set of morals which leaders everywhere must be judged by. Will you also add your voice to this important call? act.gp/4bGVSAm

I'd like a proper progressive land tax. We could call it the rates. And abolish the regressive council tax

USA (Trump) pays for 70% of Israeli military. That's $11 million of bombs, ammo, guns, etc. every day. Over 90% homes in Gaza have been destroyed. 20% Gazans killed or mutilated. Families destroyed, children starving. But yeah, give Trump a peace prize.

It's far easier to tax land ownership. We could call it the rates. We could abolish the council tax.

Here's a good one:

if you save £20,000 a week you'll be a millionaire in a year.
To become a billionaire you need to save ten times as much, that's £200,000 a week, for about 100 years.

Trust in the US is eroding. Now the question isn’t if the dollar will lose supremacy: it’s when | Kenneth Mohammed De-dollarisation is not a threat to global stability. Countries are simply questioning the rules of a game long rigged in Washington’s favour

The USA pays $32,000 EVERY SECOND in interest on their national debt. It.Is.Not.Sustainable. The system is broken.
