I am stunned by the straight-faced hypocrisy of Iraelis' horrfied reactions to receiving return fire.

It's almost like bombing civilians and blowing up hospitals (and tank-shelling food aid lines) is maybe a bad thing?

So, to protect women from men from having to wear make-up and a dress to gain entrance to a womens bathroom by posing as a trans woman (which never happened), now a guy can just walk in with beard & six-pack claiming to be a trans man.

Well played, UK bigots. 😡

My Labour MP @fredthomasuk.bsky.social has come out and said Brexit is “an almost unmitigated disaster”. I would delete the “almost” but it’s good to see an MP being honest, even if he backs the Labour manifesto.

This government's attempt to justify cutting benefits has completely fallen apart. They're slashing support for ill and disabled people to meet their arbitrary fiscal rules.

“The Chancellor said today that she would not do anything to put household finances in danger, yet the government’s own assessment shows their cuts to... benefits risk pushing 250,000 people into poverty, including 50,000 children," says the Chief Exec of the Joseph Rowntree Foundation

Let this sink in - Rachel Reeves and Keir Starmer are choosing to push 50,000 children into poverty - but won't ask multi-millionaires and billionaires to pay a little bit more tax.

Absolutely sickening.
Government’s own impact assessment finds welfare cuts would drive 250,000 more people, including 50,000 children, into poverty.

800,000 current and future claimants will lose PIP. 150,000 lose carers allowance as a knock-on effect.

Government’s own impact assessment of its £5 billion cuts to benefits:

an extra quarter of a million people including 50,000 children will be in relative poverty by 2029/30

Once again - this is not what millions of us voted for.

We wanted better and those most in need NEEDED better and if labour don't understand how bad all of this looks then they're in deep and dire straits
The OBR has not yet been able to forecast any employment gain from the cuts/changes to incapacity & disability benefits

MPs are being asked to support around £6.5bn of cuts & increased conditionality for ill & disabled people without any clear assessment of what it will achieve

This is shocking. Governments impact assessment estimates

* 3.2 million families lose an average of £1,720 a year
* PIP claimants who are no longer eligible will lose an average of £4,200
* 50,000 more children will be pushed into relative poverty

I never thought I would say this, but @teamlabouruk.bsky.social have now lost me forever. Not by making these welfare cuts: if they are a terrible necessity, then that's one thing.

Labour have lost me by making these cuts without shame or apology and trying to justify them as moral and beneficial.
March 26, 2025 at 2:49 PM
Just a reminder, cutting Personal Independence Payments (the clue's in the name) will make disabled people less able to work, not encourage them into work.

This will also leave the disabled unable to access health provision and increase the cost associated with late intervention and home treatment.

Britain's 177 billionaires sit on £965 bn - more EACH than the average Brit will earn in 1000 lifetimes.

So obviously, Labour decided NOT to have a 2% wealth tax on this obscene, unspendable hoarding. More poverty for 6.9m disabled Britons is their solution.
