In good news for Labour, the IMF issued a report on the UK yesterday, saying "an economic recovery is underway. Growth is projected at 1.2 percent in 2025 and will gain momentum next year" with the "fiscal plans strike a good balance between supporting growth and safeguarding fiscal sustainability."

“Instead of cutting benefits for disabled people, wouldn’t the moral thing to do, the courageous thing to do, be to make a real tough choice and introduce a wealth tax on the very wealthiest people in our society?”

Please remember that Donald Trump was 100% against electric vehicles screaming drill baby drill and now suddenly he’s amazed at a car that’s been around for 10 years and is clearly so out of touch that I wouldn’t even let him walk my dog.

Sick to the back teeth of the public sector getting a kicking from the very people they work hard to help.
Gov workers aren’t lazy—we’re the ones fixing broken tax records, tracking down missing payments, and helping people when they need it most. The system works because we do.
Read how one IRS worker spent 13 years making things right.

You could make a LOT of money if you knew in advance that the stock market was about to soar or plunge.
Wonder how many people in Trump's inner circle are in on the decision making aspects of this wild whirlwind of on-again-off-again tariffs?

I celebrate the 80% of Germans who did not vote for the far right. Do not make 19.6% of German voters into "the" German people (again).
"The" German people don't exist! The German population is diverse and divided, but voted overwhelmingly for liberal democratic parties.

This is where we are now: An elementary school at Fort Campbell has removed all books from its library that so much as *allude* to slavery or the civil rights movement.
