Wow - this guy must be really, REALLY bad with money if an extra £208 per month will “ruin” his retirement.
Let’s take a look at his situation based on what he told the @Telegraph
Because this does NOT add up!
No, this is not a “poor pensioner” scrabbling around for pennies…

Next time someone asks what's the matter with Musk's Twitter, show them this:

The price I’m paying as a self employed person for nearly half a million kids to be lifted out of extreme poverty.
Stop listening to the millionaires and billionaires who are trying to convince you that this is a bad thing.

Headline on The World at One just now:
"Sir Keir Starmer has denied putting the Labour Party before the country by ending the two-child benefit cap".
Can we please go back to reporting the actual news, not someone's partisan take on it?

🔥 Rachel Reeves says there’s a “hole” in the public finances.
A new decade-long Brexit study quantifies it:
A 6–8% hit to GDP
That's £180bn-£240bn a year
It means less tax revenue and so less money for everything.
Brexit made Britain MUCH poorer.

I’m broadly supportive of Reeves’ budget but ffs I wish she’d speak to us on a human level rather than reeling her list off. It would be so beneficial to her if she delivered the message in the manner that we speak to eachother…

A billion-pound jump in gambling income in a single year is not a success story — it’s a warning. We need stronger taxes and urgent action to protect people from an industry built on addiction.

Nigel Farage needs investigating by the police for the same reasons as Nathan Gill.
His whole party is rotten and the rot starts at the top.
No Russian money can be allowed in British politics.

Still reeling from the Stanford report on Brexit. Reduced GDP by up to 8% and investment by as much as 18%. The UK Treasury would have £40 billion more each year if Britain had remained in the EU. Devastating self-immolation.
