The UK & other rich countries just gifted U.S. corporations’ a major exemption from int'l tax rules.
The UK was already haemorrhaging an estimated $9 billion a year to tax-cheating US megacorps.

The fact is no presenter has ever had to leave the BBC for expressing conservative views, or even explicitly endorsing a right-wing party.

Normalising mass killing should not be rewarded, and banning Israel from Eurovision is the least we can do. LDFP are dismayed at Ed ignoring the genocide of 70,000 Palestinians (347 since a so-called “ceasefire” was called.) Ed’s statement does not represent the views of our members and supporters.
"There is a ceasefire in Gaza and therefore this action is the wrong thing"
Lib Dem leader Ed Davey hiding behind the pretend 'ceasefire' (which is the point of it) & saying its wrong for countries to boycott Eurovision. Pathetic. Supporting BDS is the very least anyone can do

The majority of the UK’s richest are happy to live here & pay their taxes.
But what about the greedy few that use the UK to get rich, then bail when it's time to pay their dues?
The UK needs a settling up tax, just like 🇺🇸 🇫🇷 🇩🇪 🇳🇱 🇨🇦 🇦🇺 🇪🇸 🇮🇹 🇳🇴 🇯🇵.

Settling up taxes. Or how to stop billionaires dining and dashing. - Tax Justice UK
The UK should join countries like the US, France, Germany and Japan and introduce a settling up tax— sometimes known as an exit tax.

The Council of Europe has warned that the UK gov’s treatment of trans people may breach human rights law.
This must be a wake up call.
We’ve seen an increase in hostility towards trans in recent years.
Everyone deserves dignity, safety, & respect - that includes trans people.

When immigration agents arrest Americans without sufficient cause, detain them without access to counsel, or ignore proof of citizenship, they fail their duty to protect the public.
I’m asking for an investigation into DHS’s arrests, detentions, and deportations of U.S. citizens.
