Elon Musk, co-leader of the fake Department of Government Efficiency, promised $2 trillion in cuts from the federal budget. This would more than eliminate the deficit and create a healthy surplus, allowing for more tax cuts aimed primarily at corporations and the wealthy. Many

Teesworks Freeport scandal, Michael Gove has stopped audits by HMRC for Freeports. Instead each Freeport will audit themselves and report to a government forum. Freeports need to be banned, and Michael Gove needs to be prosecuted.

But David. Surely with all that extra NHS money that Brexit was going to deliver (remember the bus) you should be proud of it all. Not to mention the amazing deal you helped BJ get. You incompetent charlatan. How you have the nerve to pontificate about anything is beyond me.
Indeed. I'm not proud of the NHS, I'm embarrassed and ashamed about it. It's now one of the most expensive systems in the developed world, as a share of GDP, yet delivers some of the worst outcomes. It's going to have to change to a European-style insurance system - the only

Conservative MP Michelle Donelan got sued for calling a university professor a Hamas supporter with zero evidence. She has taken the costs for paying compensation, and charged them to the taxpayer. She needs to repay the lot, and be fired, let’s have another by-election.
NEW: it seems that *taxpayers* covered the cost of Michelle Donelan's false accusations. Her department says a "nominal" sum was paid, "subject to all the usual cross-govet processes, & aims to reduce overall costs to the taxpayer that could result from protracted legal action."

Owners of Freeports can use their taxes to pay for building work inside their Freeport instead. Given that Freeports are 20km wide this means that they will never pay tax, and all your taxes will instead go to building their Private property. RT if Freeports need to be banned.

As the issue of compensation for miscarriages of justice is rightly in the news, it’s timely to note that in 2014, the government changed the law to make it all but impossible for people wrongly convicted and imprisoned to claim compensation.

A Parliament which began with promises of “levelling up” ends with money promised to the North being redirected back to London. Britain needs major change. #HeadNorth
