Call me a hippy, but Iโd like to see more โtough decisionsโ from Labour that involve the ultra rich being taxed more rather than the poor shouldering the burden, personally.

Wow! Australia has introduced a new bill that caps the total amount billionaires like Elon Musk can spend on political parties to just $20,000. This legislation will completely ban billionaires from"buying" elections in the country. We need that here.

Why is this still just a subject for discussion rather than enshrined in law?

BREAKING: None of this is true. The father was 18 at the time of the Rwandan genocide, and living in Uganda. He's also a Tutsi - the victims of the genocide, not its perpetrators. And Keir Starmer didn't represent him.

At this point you can't tell me that the Premier League refs aren't being paid off.

Thread. Grab a brew/stiff drink, girder your loins and brace yourself - What we have here is a detailed analysis/debunking of the mystic muppetry of (@rustyrockets ) Russell Brand and his WIFI beating necklace of nonsense. #muppetry #digitalliteracy

IS or WAS โ the celebrity mortality game. Enjoy that moment of surprise when you discover that bloke from the telly who you thought died during the celebrity cull of 2016 is still kicking about. It checks Wikipedia daily for the most recent bucket-kickers.

Iโm not buying this line of argument. Johnson knew, as everybody in the Conservative Party knew, that the Brexit referendum was about heading off the (over-stated) electoral threat from UKIP and simultaneously dealing with a fringe group of MPs in the party who were a distraction
On #Brexit. ITV: You told us that we should do this and you hadn't devoted any serious thought to what came next. BJ: I wanted to win an argument... What we expected was that the Cameron gov't would deliver it. ~AA

If Diego Simeone had been the manager and Atletico Madrid were the opposition, there would have been uproar today about the tactics and the approach. Mikel Arteta has got to own what happened there. Heโs managing a team of thespians.

Honestly @NetflixUK, I know you want to protect revenues and that, but this is just pissing off legitimate subscribers - lots of people regularly have more than one location! And the solution to "watch netflix once a month from home on your phone", who the hell does that?
