Freezing the tax allowance is politically inept. Not only will she be known as the Chancellor that took away pensioners Winter Fuel Allowance, but also the first one to tax the State Old Age Pension. #budget25 #lp #labour #RachelReeves

I asked the Home Secretary how it feels to kick away the ladder and introduce anti-migrant policies endorsed by fascist Tommy Robinson?
She didn’t answer the question, calling it “beneath contempt”.
The only thing beneath contempt is her pound-shop Powellism. Shame on her & this Labour government.

For Shabana Mahmood to attack some of the most cruelly treated people in the world as having won a "golden ticket" because they manage to get to and claim asylum in Britain is unforgiveable.
A new, far right, low for which I can think of no precedent, by any UK Government.

Trump suing the BBC is obviously a distraction (hence the ridiculous $5b damages claim, to ensure world wide headlines). My guess is the BBC will play down the Epstein files & mysteriously the law suit will go away.

Has the next manager already been chosen? Sports Republic surely wouldn't sack the manager without having a replacement ready? Are they that stupid? #saintsfc

Any manager coming in now will need to be reassured that Sports Republic are going to spend big in January. That is unlikely, so any manager worth their salt will turn it down, as they won't want to be set up to fail. That means we will have another untried manager & continue to fail. #saintsfc

If you don’t like being called a racist, maybe don’t make a career of saying things that appeal to racists, don’t create a political party that keeps attracting racist candidates, don’t fawn over racist world leaders, and don’t make a convicted racist the guest of honour at your party conference.
