The UK, where the day after a decision to take half a million children out of poverty, the media & political world has been full of sneering at those same children & their families, labelling them as ‘Benefits Street’, while the same people are moaning about a tax on £2m mansions. Shameful stuff.

At Birmingham’s Christmas Market, traders are telling the same story to us again and again. Behind the lights and stalls, small businesses are still paying the price of Brexit, with business now harder, slower and more expensive.

It's such a bizarre framing. Labour MPs think taking 450k kids out of poverty is putting the country first! That's why they wanted it to happen! It's not because they personally benefit.
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?

Last revamped in 2018 with £1.8 million of EU development money and another £1 million in business development cash.
Original development also received significant EU funding.
Farage, by contrast, will give Llandudno nothing but hot air and lies.

Rachel Reeves says there’s a “hole” in the public finances. A new decade-long Brexit study explains it: a 6–8% hit to GDP – that's £180bn-£240bn a year – means less tax, less investment and less money for everything else.

Reselling tickets for profit to be outlawed in UK government crackdown
Touts – and ordinary consumers – will no longer be able to charge anything more than price at which they purchased ticket
Reselling tickets for profit is to be outlawed under plans due to be announced this week, the Guardian has learned, as the government goes ahead with a long-awaited crackdown on touts and resale platforms such as Viagogo and StubHub.
Ministers had been considering allowing touts – and ordinary consumers – to sell on a ticket for up to 130% of face value, as part of a consultation process that ended earlier this year. Continue reading...
