Michelle Mone can be expelled from the House of Lords by a simple majority vote in the Commons, and then in the House of Lords.

Like if she needs to go.

When was the last time you saw anybody in the UK face consequences.
I´ve seen it happen with the ordinary person, the fall guy, but those higher up the chain?
The system is too rotten for that.
Ooops! I correct myself as there was one time, when a Head of

It may or may not be a large amount but it is by definition a small proportion. Strange that people who obviously think about money all day long can't grasp this.
@zackpolanski.bsky.social wants to introduce a wealth tax of 1% on assets of over £10m & 2% on assets over £1bn & if the super rich want to leave the UK because they are being taxed a tiny amount more then we should wave them goodbye

Thatcherite John Redwood says 1% isn't a tiny amount.

The very first thing the Prime Minister does is use the household budget metaphor.

A metaphor - this report into BBC coverage - said could be "easily misleading."

Why is the government trying to mislead the country?

If you’re seeing this, you’re one of the few — conversations about abortion rights don’t exactly get boosted by the algorithm. But they matter.

In this episode, we discuss Labour’s move toward decriminalisation and what it means amid global backlash. Listen here ⤵️

Earlier this year The Telegraph shared misleading statistics about London's migrant population and faced no serious sanctions from IPSO. Accuracy is fundamental to our media landscape and the Government must act to ensure that newspapers are subject to standards of ethics and accountability. 2/2
The Telegraph’s attacks on the BBC are breathtakingly hypocritical
The Telegraph holds the BBC to standards they fail to meet themselves, the hypocrisy speaks for itself.

The Telegraph has published its "editorial view" on the recent BBC resignations, claiming that they want "to ask legitimate questions about the accuracy of its journalism". If only The Telegraph would hold their own reporting to the same standards. 1/2
