The UK lost £11 BILLION to multinational corporations cheating on their taxes from 2016 to 2021.

Who's robbed us? Our govts know— they have the tax records— but have kept them from the public due to a US-backed global gag order. #NameTheTaxCheaters

What happens now is that every dropped piece of trash, every inch of graffiti, every broken down subway train, every disappointing sandwich, every rat in Central Park, and every single crime gets blamed on Zohran Mamdani... by racists who never go near NYC.

My tip as a Londoner. Shrug and carry on.

School pupils are to be taught how to tackle conspiracy theories, spot 'fake news' & root out misinformation. The Daily Mail, ajudged by Wikipedia to be an unreliable new source, is furious. You don't have to be Sherlock Holmes to work out why.

Great reflections on Brexit from @anandmenon.bsky.social

'It is hard to imagine a worse moment in the history of international trade to have decided to leave a continental-sized economy to go your own way, because of the direction of international trade thereafter.'
