New data on farms and inheritance tax: a third of farm estates over £1.5m aren’t farmers but wealthy people avoiding IHT by sinking money into farmland. The Budget hits farmers too hard and tax avoiders too lightly. It needs to change.

Just a staggering technical and engineering achievement. 47 years operational in the most hostile environment. Amazing.

👏👏👏👏

The Tories are now officially far right.

Spot on from Dan.

This is all too common driver behaviour, sadly. It's why physically separated cycle ways are needed. If drivers like this were banned, the roads, and everyone's experience of them, would be significantly improved.

This is going to disappoint a lot of people…

This is the official Police response to whether children can play in the street. Motornormativity exists everywhere, in this case, prioritising the potential feelings of drivers over the independence of children. How utterly depressing.

1/ Nobody said turbines result in zero bird collisions. 2/ The U.S Fish and Wildlife Service estimates that annually in the U.S alone cats kill 3.7 billion birds; buildings 998 million; and wind turbines 328,000. 3/ Don't you feel embarrassed spreading untruths on social media?

Spot on.

👏👏👏👏 Spot on.

This feels spot on. But I don't think most people (so, from middle middle down - about 70% of people) care. What they care about is security and comfort and the odd luxury. This is now (mostly) beyond 40% of people, especially in the south.

Absolutely. People using the current set of general LLMs to "help" with their jobs are simply giving the AI the info it needs to **do** their jobs. They are expressly making their jobs replaceable by AI. 🤷‍♂️

Most people from the centre right to the left think that the world has undergone a significant shift, and that economic assumptions made before this need to be redrawn. Exceptions seem to be the current Labour leadership. This refusal to be pragmatic seems odd.

This is really as good as people are saying. We need to build, build, build! 📈

I see Darren Grimes is being racist again.

The Daily Mail lies.

On an SWR Help train to Exeter -air conditioning is just not up to the job Staff moved everyone from rear 3 newer carriages (aircon working) to front 3 older carriages (Aircon not working) "for stations beyond Salisbury" - then said at Salisbury all 6 carriages going to Exeter!
