US puts £31bn tech ‘prosperity deal’ with Britain on ice. Trump demands that UK ends digital services tax on US tech companies and its food safety rules, which bar the certain US agricultural products. Say NO to Trump slavery. Better off joining the EU. https://t.co/n44cXhv2Id

Corporate Welfare London developers to build fewer affordable homes, get higher subsidies to build them. Why build unaffordable homes? Why subsidies for highly profitable companies, which will boost their profits? Let councils build affordable homes. https://t.co/mYyVioUvBZ

The next time some raving Right wing lunatic, like Suella Braverman or Robert Jenrick, bangs on about 'leaving the ECHR', show them this.
🚨 “Can I tell you how many times in the last 45 years the European Court of Human Rights has ruled against the UK when it comes to deporting people from this country - only 13 times - in 45 years” Hugely important point made by @vicderbyshire 👏

In 2026, the UK state pension age will rise to 67 from 66, fully implemented by 2028. Rich retire whenever they want. The poor die at work, receive low pension, have shorter life. Low wages = low private pension. Neoliberals want to cut state pension. https://t.co/4MHrnPxR11

An increase in the age is on the horizon after it was announced more than a decade ago.

First he wanted a parade. No one came. Then he wanted a Jumbo. Qatar obliged. Then he wanted a ballroom. That’s a mess. Now he wants an Arc. He’s like a toddler who wants a different toy every day. When is Congress going to do its job and protect the country from this maniac?

On the eve of the 2016 Brexit referendum, the Daily Mail published a long editorial with 10 reasons to leave the EU. Reason 5 was too many immigrants from Eastern Europe. Yesterday, they put out a piece moaning about the huge number of Poles who've left the UK since Brexit.

Is anyone surprised? Remember, Melania threatened a $1 billion lawsuit against Michael Wolff because of his claims that she met Trump through Epstein. However, once Wolff counter sued, we haven’t heard a word about Melania’s lawsuit! That’s because of the discovery process!

🔥 Emma Duncan’s column isone of the cleanest, least ideological admissions yet of what Brexit has done and why the argument is effectively over, even if politics hasn’t caught up. The key point is not that economists agree on every detail. It’s that they no longer disagree on

Perhaps next time you are fed lies like this about the benefit system @bbclaurak, you could actually challenge the false narrative? The same goes for everyone else in the MSM... @vicderbyshire @SophyRidgeSky @Peston
Why do MPs lie like this? Even your GP cannot declare you unfit for work for more than a few weeks. After that you are subjected to a ridiculously strict DWP assessment which declares many fit for work...even when they truly are not.

Two Swiss lawmakers are calling for a bribery investigation into gifts Trump got from a delegation seeking lower tariffs. The group gave Trump an engraved gold bar and a Rolex table clock. Around a week and a half later, Trump lowered the tariffs. It’s great to see folks calling

This is so f*cking embarassing. The Mayor of Providence had to tell Americans not to trust any news that isn’t released from official Providence sources because the president of the United States spread misinformation. This is the worst timeline.

With the latest mass shooting at Brown University, this might be a good time to mention that Bill Clinton’s assault weapons ban reduced mass shooting deaths by 43% - but after George W Bush & Republicans let it expire, mass shooting deaths spiked by 239%. It's the fucking guns.

There is no single immigrant in America who has benefited more from the US taxpayer, had more money given to them by the US taxpayer, than Elon Musk.
Incentives explain outcomes. Free money from the US taxpayer is like a giant magnet attracting 90% of Earth to America! So why wouldn’t vast numbers of illegals want to come here? Unfortunately, if allowed, this will cause the collapse of America.
