#BBCNews is a disgrace. The world is going to hell in a handcart but the main news is an English footballer winning an award. If it had been a Scottish/Welsh/Northern Irish footballer it wouldn't have rated a mention.

To remind you, there is no Republican in this admin or in Congress that should come out unscathed for their disgusting coverup of the rape of children. Every one of them should be held to account. We can only force justice if we take the house & senate. GOTV & FIRE THE GOP. #ProudBlue #Pinks

Only 10% of the richest 0.01% of the population paid close to the top 47% (45% income tax marginal rate + 2% NIC) rate on earnings. A quarter of that group paid an effective average tax rate of 20% or less. The tax system appears to be progressive for some but is frequently not so at the very top

bmmagazine.co.ukOnly one in ten top UK earners pay close to top tax rate, says CenTaxCenTax says equalising capital gains tax with income tax could raise £19.7bn by 2030, as HMRC data shows few top earners pay the 47 per cent top rate.

I’m just a person on my fucking knees begging the government to use its absolutely massive majority to do something extremely fucking popular: save our democracy.

#BBCLauraK again giving Reform Ltd an easy time. Here's a question she could have asked, "what will these billionaires get in return?" And Angela Rayner, 5 times asked if Labour would take this money, refused to answer. Oh, Angie.

Three senior Reform figures were involved in those Channel 4 revelations we saw last night. Two have been kicked out. The third is Nigel Farage. Farage should be suspended while this matter is investigated. He has very serious questions to answer.
