It's payment time for Rachel Reeves letting the banks off the hook. I seriously doubt whether that is in any way as beneficial as a higher tax on banks.

A lobby organisation for companies in family ownership called for a dialogue with the AfD (the far-right party in Germany that Elon Skum, Vance, and Rubio openly supported). A large chain of drugstores left the organisation, another didn't.

If I got that right, creating the UK budget is a top-secret procedure, leaking like a sieve. The UK's Chancellor of the Exchequer (finance minister) then carries it in this famous red briefcase to the parliament for the reveal. (if not some public servant publishes it online 40 minutes earlier). 😂

Even with all the heartbreak, hate, and devastation he brought, sometimes you can't help but laugh. The idea that a president has nobody who says to him, "No, don't press 'Post'" is ridiculous.
