I'm hoping to unite Left and Right - they'll all hate my piece in today's Sunday Times, saying that successive Budgets have overtaxed the highest-earning 20%, and under-taxed both the median earner and the richest 0.1%.https://buff.ly/BqRFpJr

And you know what? Sure, give them the opportunity to play down the racist banter thing in an interview. Give them a brief moment of feeling like they've turned a corner in the interview, and then hit them like a brick with Russian money influence, because ultimately that's where the real story lies

Well this is misconceived and is going to end badly, if it goes anywhere at all. Perhaps the British people ought to be able to sue members of parliament for losses caused by legislation?

This is not a peace plan. It is a proposal that weakens Ukraine and divides America from Europe, preparing the way for a larger war in the future. In the meantime, it benefits unnamed Russian and American investors, at the expense of everyone else.

Hope HMRC are investigating whether Gill evaded tax on the bribes he received.
