Reform UK is proposing a "Britannia card" that would let wealthy foreigners pay a £250k fee to move to the UK, and live here exempt from all tax on their foreign assets

What they don't say: it would cost the UK £34bn

The Conservative party is now using the grooming gangs scandal to raise money for itself.

A reminder that Kemi Badenoch's spokesman admitted yesterday that she hasn't even bothered to speak to any of the victims, and doesn't see the need to.

NEW: Andrew Norfolk broke the grooming gang story, 15 years ago. His exclusive interview on today’s News Agents
is deeply powerful, not least for his anger about those political figures now exploiting it and the victims for their own purposes.

Having bought the US election, Musk now wants to buy ours. This ketamine-infused menace thinks global domination is his to buy.
And Farage is grasping for his money.These repulsive men weaponise prejudice for power. They feed off ignorance, resentment and inadequacy.

Rishi Sunak and his wife avoiding public scrutiny by changing their company to 'unlimited'... just as David Cameron did ...

Seems to be a pattern with Tory Prime Ministers eh?

I wonder why..... hmmmmmmmm
👀Is Rishi Sunak trying to avoid public scrutiny?

He just switched his new company “The office of Akshata Murty and Rishi Sunak” from a limited company to an “unlimited” company.

This means he no longer has to make his company accounts public 👀⤵️

Sigh - classic fact free nonsense. ‘news’ story here totally fails to mention that Tory plans were for fines of £5k (later reduced to £3k) for each missed heat pump sale. What @Ed_Miliband has done is to reduce that to £500. Headline should read “Miliband slashes Tory boiler tax”
