The attack on his niece was a few years ago. Everything this scumbag has done since has been with full awareness of what he's been empowering and emboldening.
To come out with this now is gobsmacking. I don't know how he's got the nerve.

If your house is worth millions you should pay the fucking tax. The date couldn't be less relevant.

The Labour Party effectively has decided that workers can be laid off unfairly because businesses kicked off at them.
They are unworthy of the name Labour and unworthy of trade union affiliation.
Treacherous bastards.

The Prime Minister just told me any party leader should want to get to the bottom of this Russian bribery scandal with Reform.
He is the Prime Minister and a party leader. Why isn't he launching a national investigation himself?

I keep getting the "If you're human and you know it" advert, which felt like a weirdly polished, too frequent, fake push back against AI - and I was right.
The entire thing is made by Open AIs Sam Altman to push retinal scanning tech as a replacement for Captcha type verification testing. Bleak.

You could make practically every bus route in England free for the cost of extending the fuel duty cut.
Reeves says petrol is still expensive.
So the 5p cut in fuel duty will be extended until 2026, she says.
Great. So polluters get to continue to poison us. Yet EV drivers get penalised with pay per mile.

Climate change. What’s that?

Because they were forced to? They refused to for a whole year, and suspended MPs who demanded it.
Whatever else this government do (and there's plenty of issues with this budget) ministers will always be able to point to this as an incredible important contribution to the country's future. Almost half a million kids taken out of poverty.
Scrapping the two-child limit in full is a monumental decision. Well done to all involved in the Child Poverty Strategy, and everyone who has made the case against the policy.
OBR says scrapping costs £3 billion in 2029-30 and will lift 450,000 out of poverty

There's an advert on his website for a 'Depot Supervisor' that pays £12.75 an hour for shift work.
If he wants to reduce welfare spending maybe he should pay staff enough that they don't need in-work benefits.

the bbc changed their article from saying 'trans woman' to saying 'biological male who identifies as a woman'.
even if you don't care about trans ppl it should alarm you just how captured the bbc has become.
they will no longer even say 'trans woman'. that's not normal and shows massive bias.
