Huge congratulations. This woman is a genius & the government should be breaking her door down asking for advice. Old fashioned discipline, respect, consequences & hard work. It pays off. Well done all these brilliant kids too.

Everyone ignores the employer NI. Easy task #1 for a competent chancellor. Replace income tax and NI with a single "Tax against work". Replace dividend tax with "Tax against investing" and savings tax with "Tax against prudence". Language and presentation matters.

This is excellent from Jack Rankin MP 🇬🇧 Practical matters must have a philosophical backdrop. Coincidentally I have this morning planted an oak sapling in the house I hope to leave to my children. It's my right to deliver that value to their kids' kids' future.

This is excellent.

This is what passes for "analysis" in The Labour Party grassroots, and informs the backbench clownshow. History is important, and this account wants to obliterate middle/working class economic development from 1215 to 1944. x.com/IsabelPat1886/…

I know a couple of these. Completely predictable.

We are going to have so many of these lest-we-forget quotes

God help us.

Gus O'Donnell : Cabinet Secretary 2005-2011.

The same children that need protecting from fake or hurty news, are going to be jolly well told what to think by teachers. Because no teacher has biases, all teachers can be trusted to teach kids how, not what, to think. Parents: read James Clavell's Children's Story.

This is absolutely what's happening with Torsten Reeves and Rachel Bell

Back in Dec 2023 we asked: "Is it plausible for there to be such a huge discrepancy between the policy agenda of Labour's think tanks & Labour's positioning? Is Labour's anti-tax rhetoric a false flag? It seems as if Labour's market friendly rehetoric was a false flag

Isabel Paterson Sam Newman Good God, that might be one of the most chilling things I’ve ever read. State overreach dressed up as ‘helping struggling parents’ & rigid state sanctioned curriculum with no variation or choice that aims to ‘raise standards’ are state sponsored disempowerment of parents.
