Most benefits go to people IN WORK.

Because…

THERE ARE NOT ENOUGH PROPERLY PAID JOBS,

Rather than insisting employers pay decent wages, governments use taxpayers’ money to subsidise employers who don’t.

Welfare was not meant to support employers.

This is completely wrong.
Kevin Maguire is right, 60% of kids in poverty are in households where at least one parent works.

A quick little throwaway tune in RUTLAND WEEKEND TELEVISION from the late, great Neil Innes.

I'd love to hear various artists cover this ditty in concert... (Which artist will take up the challenge first?)

NEW: Welcome to the Great AI Bubble. Yes, it’s here. And yes, it’s going to burst.

It’s also got way more in common with the Epstein scandal than you really want to know.

The govt should find 100 small things that piss people off & fix em, such as…

Ta to Politico for the vid, at its Labour fringe event, I explained that as big changes take time, govts should also have a team focused on small winnable change.

What little fixes'd you want?
