Here’s the truth about Britain’s immigration hysteria: Starmer and co have whipped it up to get cheap votes | Nesrine Malik

Playing nice with the press barons is clearly not working for Starmer and Co.

Used to be called Brownshirts in another country. Didn’t end well.

Ordered the very impressive Renault 5 EV in April with August delivery. Now November! Told existing orders not eligible for EV grant. Plus Renault changing local franchise. Fed up. Cancel?

Moscow? North Korea? Hong Kong? Labour has lost it completely.

Remember: The recipe for economic growth isn’t tax cuts for the rich. It’s investment in our people — in health care, infrastructure and education — to build a strong middle class. 

You don't grow the economy through trickle-down nonsense.

Slavery! Great idea!

Reeves and Starmer to roll the pitch for tax rises in a difficult autumn budget

Time for honesty on the economic destruction from Brexit

You never see Labour supporters accusing the Lib Dems of paving the way for a Reform government. Funny that.

The next part of the plan to steal the midterms and/or the 2028 election - an attempt to do a mid-decade census to take seats and electoral votes away from blue states. I knew this was coming.

The blank piece of paper that cost taxpayers £32,000 Government ‘obsession with secrecy’ descends into farce

🚨 New: The UK government spent £32,251 fighting to hide a blank form.

Yep - 30 grand plus to avoid releasing a blank template of the ministerial interests form.

A wild story - with a surprise twist. Would read to end of this one... 🙄 (🧵)

Labour: all the wrong choices. No guts. No vision. No hope.

Reeves should tax the hell out of the gambling industry at the next budget.

It would be popular, do some social good and could raise billions. There will be howls from lobbyists and industry, but it's a no-brainer.

The gambling industry is a licence to print money. Tax it properly – and turbocharge the fight against child poverty | Gordon Brown

Starmer declines to rule out election pledge-breaking tax rises in budget after claim Treasury must fill £40bn deficit – UK politics live

Whilst all the time still not calling out the massive damage done to the UK economy from leaving the EU

Guess who the tax system is really supporting In this second article on wealth accumulation, we explain who our tax system really supports

The tax system gives the wealthiest 10% around £8,000 a year in reliefs.

That’s the same as the top rate of Universal Credit.
Except the wealthy don’t need to fill in endless forms, meet sanctions, or prove they’re “deserving.”

It’s called the EU, stupid! Rejoin.

A wasteland of rubble, dust and graves: how Gaza looks from the sky

Israel must pay

The President of the United States went on CNBC today and said: He won the 2020 election (he didn’t). He has a 71% approval rating (he doesn’t). The jobs numbers were rigged (they weren’t).

I could say something funny here, but I won’t. It’s just so damn dangerous to have him in the White House.

Words fail. Look at that.

Brexit has been a resounding disaster. Starmer must find the courage to change course | Ed Davey

More of this please. And on immigration

Who will speak truth?

This is a key table to understanding public opinion on migration. *When confronted with the real trade offs* people go for protecting the NHS and the economy over reducing migration.

The problem as per the rest of the thread is many don't believe those trade offs exist.
