Someone needs to remind President Trump that President Zelenskyy is the democratically elected leader of a sovereign country, a hero who is bravely standing against the illegal invasion of Ukraine by a murderous ACTUAL dictator called Vladimir Putin

If anyone knows any employer who has a job for a 60 year old with limited mobility (so a desk job ideally) in South London, pls let me know. I have a law degree and lots of commercial and legal experience but am happy to take an entry level job. I just need some work.

The Brexit leaders didn't have any proper plans for Brexit, but they did have ideas such as slashing social and employment protection and environmental and safety standards and scrapping the NHS.
These are what they see as Brexit benefits.

Staggeringly misleading & irresponsible article by Express online. Neither I nor my site've ever said that. It's a perversion of our "earn under £35k & it's worth checking a benefits calc to see if you're missing out on owt" into dangerous, trite clickbait.

Labour needs to fix political financing now, BEFORE the next billionaire decides to buy an election.
Pretty damning indictment of our politics that if Reform don't get a huge bung from a foreign billionaire trying to buy our elections it'll only be because said billionaire changed his mind on a whim, and at no point did any supposed structural safeguard of any kind kick in to stop this happening.

How our democracy has been hijacked by corporations and wealthy elites
The only effective remedy is to ban all private donations, or bribes, to political parties.
