The OBR says that the VAT charge on private schools has raised more money than expected because fewer pupils have gone into the state sector

Never believe the Tories and their media.

I am 100% confident the gulf in class, political nous, intellectual rigour and charm between Reeves and Badenoch displayed today will in no way be reflected in BBC coverage throughout its bulletins today. Balance will once again trump reality.

The LOTO is an appalling individual. Reeves terrific.

And honestly I don't give a fuck if it's popular or not. It's going to make a lot of kids' lives better. That's the point of government. Not an opinion poll.

Reform is a party that says things that appeal to racists, fields racist candidates, fawns over racist world leaders, made a convicted racist guest of honour at their conference, and whose leader refuses to outright deny having racially abused people.

If only there were a word for such a party.

The fuck is Lindsay Hoyle?

Pretty much the biggest Parliamentary moment of the year and he lets the Deputy oversee a noisy shambles. Reeves in a constant battle with a delinquent rabble. #politicslive #Budget

Call me prehistoric but I'm old enough to remember when the likes of Ken Clarke, Gordon Brown etc were able to reveal their Budget at their own pace in an atmosphere of respectful, engaged interest.

Reeves may as well be presenting this to Chester Zoo. #politicslive #Budget

Short of throwing a banana skin at her as she enters the Chamber I'm not sure The Treasury could have done any more to undermine and humiliate Rachel Reeves. She should be raging. #Budget2025

Utterly surreal that a key part of the pre Budget narrative from the government hasn’t been ‘Russian planes keep buzzing the Essex coast, US support for NATO is looking shaky, and thanks to the Tories our army fits in Old Trafford - that’s why we need to raise taxes’.

Three more school contemporaries who claim to have witnessed Nigel Farage’s alleged teenage racism have rejected the Reform UK leader’s suggestion that it was “banter”, describing it as targeted, persistent and nasty.

I’m beyond proud of Peter Ettedgui speaking out about Farage and the vile antisemitic abuse he endured. I first heard Peter’s story nearly 20 years ago when Farage was a virtual nobody. It’s not a hit job. Just the truth

ICE arrests, detains British woman with US husband and newborn when she shows up for her green card interview. She’s now in a detention center, separated from her 6-month-old. No criminal record. She had overstayed her visa.

It's left to ITV News to rattle Farage and expose him as the racist we all know he is. The BBC will obviously cover it out of duty, suffocate the story as soon as it can, and move on. Well oiled Reform machine. #wato

I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture.

They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1

As somebody who was badly bullied at school, I can assure Nigel Farage that it doesn’t feel like ancient history or banter. The anxiety and insecurities it all induced still follow me round today.
Despicable turd of a man.

I can remember pretty much every kick of England v France 1982 World Cup group match, pretty sure I'd also remember with some clarity if someone had racially abused me. Nice to see Farage rattled, and of course it was an ITV not BBC interview. #r4today

All the supposedly progressive people saying 'Nigel Farage's racism doesn't matter. His fans love it'.

It matters whether the leader of the party leading all the opinion polls is an outright racist. It matters if he called black people 'wogs' and said 'gas them' to Jews. Not everything is a game

Shah hadn't even yet launched a leak enquiry, presumably because everyone is clear Gibb leaked it to the Telegraph. Astonishingly, BBC News governance is as painfully slow, tired and ineffective as its journalism. #r4today

Probably won’t see this in mainstream media - aka the right wing press - coz it’s against their narrative. Wind energy in Britain broke a new record last week with nearly 23GW on the grid one cold windy evening. That was 56% of all electricity on Britain’s grid.

Robbie Gibb frustrated at being 'defined' by his time as May's comms boss.

He should be grateful he isn't equally 'defined' by his part in Portillo's leadership campaign, his founding of GB News and politicisation of the Jewish Chronicle.
