Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan @london.gov.uk · 8h
I’ve always been clear that no one should have to sleep rough on our streets.

This additional funding from government will support our Rough Sleeping Action Plan and our work with London Councils to prevent people becoming homeless.
Poster from the Mayor of London announcing £36.5 million in government funding to help Londoners facing homelessness. The text reads: ‘GREAT NEWS – Government announces £36.5M to help Londoners facing homelessness.’ It details funding allocations: £28.4m to prevent and end rough sleeping, £7.1m to support families in temporary accommodation with essentials, and £960k for drug and alcohol treatment for people sleeping rough or at risk of homelessness. The background shows a dimly lit city street or alleyway.

Former Head of Comms for the IEA, Annabel Denham, says the super rich will leave if we have a wealth tax.

Yes, the very same IEA that brought us Liz Truss’ disastrous mini budget. 🤦🏽‍♂️

Green Party leader Zack Polanski explains that their taxable assets can’t leave. #bbcqt

If you rename the Department of Defense the Department of War, then bomb fishing boats in the Caribbean, and shoot an unarmed priest in the head with a pepper bullet, you should automatically be barred from receiving the Nobel Peace Prize for the rest of your life.

I see Reform UK are on #BBCQT again tonight, would one of the other panelists kindly ask

Is it fiscally responsible for Nathan Gill to make anti EU, pro Russia statements in exchange for bribes

But for Nigel Farage to make anti EU, pro Russia statements, without bribes?
