I would like to introduce a term. “Slopflation.” Movies that at the time of their release were considered slop but are now auteur driven masterpieces due to the quality of slop overall decreasing. Pirates of the Caribbean, Michael Bay Transformers, etc.

Back in the day pedophiles wouldnt say 'they say that in the movie'. They'd have read Milton. Decline.

Who let Farage sneak into George Galloway's hat collection?
NIGEL FARAGE: Ten years ago, we had the Brexit vote, and Donald Trump was elected. The Davos crowd didn't believe it. They thought it would all just disappear. Now they see it's here to stay. The winds of change are hitting Davos! @Nigel_Farage

One thing I never see mentioned in this tax-cliff madness is how much the government itself loses in tax revenue when people put money in their pension to stay under £100k If someone earns £125k but doesn't want to lose free childcare/personal tax allowance, the optimal thing is
Staggeringly in Britain you are better off earning £99,000 than you are earning £144,000 because of the 60% tax trap and the loss of free childcare. Parents actually end up finding ways to reduce their incomes to prevent earning above £100,000 e.g. purchasing more annual leave.

Odd to me that we're talking so much about banning social media for under-16s and banning smartphones in schools but not about the fact schools are teaching and giving so much homework to do on screens when it is completely unnecessary for the subject in question I recently

Bit by bit, they are taking ISAs apart. We're getting closer and closer to @TorstenBell's old proposal to cap ISA pots at £100k and tax them normally (up to 39.35% on dividends, 24% on capital gains) above that. https://t.co/BDHSIqWO1U

Every time I see Rishi and his wife, it always smacks of a man that married up and is still sort of navigating that in his marriage. Even Number 10 wasn’t really enough

A fun law would be that news sites have to explain exactly a story’s news gathering process if asked. Would love to see how the sausage is made when stories magically pop up which support whatever the government is planning (in this case regulating/banning social media).
Frazer, 18, was shown a traumatic, violent video by another pupil at school when he was in Year 8, without his consent. He's since been diagnosed with PTSD and has suffered for years with his mental health. 🔗 https://t.co/5RciKziUzB
