HMRC are giving 1 million people a £100 penalty for filing their tax returns late, even if they don't owe ANY tax.
Nadhim Zahawi dodged £3m in tax and repeatedly lied about it for 6 years.
All HMRC did was make him pay the interest on it.
Hard on you, a joke for them.

More indicative of a breakdown at the DOJ than a breakdown by the AUSA, imho.
This is unreal. An AUSA talking like that in open court is about as close as you can come to a total breakdown. Never heard of anything like it.

This is the NI Education Minister.
He unilaterally decided to ban trans kids from the proper facilities in schools because he didn't want to wait for the Equality Commission's guidance on the FWS verdict which doesn't apply in Northern Ireland.

Been deluged in Epstein news, just like everyone else. But what strikes me is how far you can get as a mediocre white man, if you truly have no morality at all. It's breathtaking how stupid they all are.

A viral image which supposedly shows Nigel Farage visiting a child with terminal cancer in hospital isn’t real.
It’s based on a real picture of a boy with cancer, which has then been edited with the help of AI to include the Reform UK leader.
