Seriously people - look at what's happening in terms of GDP/capita (which is what ultimately matters for our living standards). This is a proper recession just being hidden by having more people - GDP/capita declined 0.7 per cent in 2023 with falls in every single quarter

"what we've seen is the worst attack on Israel since The Holocaust" I can't express to you more than I am right now how dangerous language can be, because there was no attack on Israel during the Holocaust because it did not exist during that event.
Keir Starmer is asked about his "red lines" - use of white phosphorus, collective punishment, bombing safe routes? He doesn't list any and refers to Israel's "right to self defence", emphasising the need for humanitarian aid.

if there’s a ‘nastiness’ to sharing factual public information, it’s only because the truth of the facts themself are nasty. they’re literally admitting that they want politics to be done in the dark so that we, the public, can’t hold our public representatives accountable.

Now that the government is trying to legislate facts (like whether Rwanda is safe)- here’s my solution: “The Stop the Boats Act 2023 Section 1. The boats have been stopped.” Job done.

If this tweet gets 100 likes, I will reveal what is behind this door that was supposed to be kept locked shut in the toilets of the building where I am working today. I genuinely gasped.

In Finland there are 3,382 homeless people. In the UK there are over 210,000. In Finland they take people’s tents away and give them a house. In the UK we take their tents away. Homelessness is a choice. By the Government.
