“We must wait for Sue Gray” could soon become “we can’t comment on an ongoing police investigation” and then “oh there’s a crisis in Ukraine to focus on” and then “well those who broke the rules have had fixed penalties - just like a speeding ticket really, end of story”.

Akshata Murty is worth £27bn and went to all that trouble to avoid £20m tax. Thats the same as having £27,000 in the bank and dodging paying 20 quid. The greed is mind boggling.

Provided family don’t need defence, education, healthcare, social security, police, roads, sanitation, accreditation, networks, food standards, crisis planning, trade deals, borders, courts, energy, clean water, pensions, land registry, customs, archives or rail lines. Idiot.

Even if you have £460m you only have one stomach. You can only eat one meal at a time. You can only wear one suit. Drive one car. And live in one house at a time. So pay the tax. Let someone else eat a meal.

Today's jobs figures are really poor (again). Thread below, but TL;DR: - Despite record vacancies, labour force is shrinking - Despite 4% pay growth, high inflation means real pay falling too. - Falling pay, high worklessness, labour shortages will make living standards worse.

1/ABOUT 30. IMHO the UK now faces a crisis that is, in some ways, even greater than the one we faced when confronting Hitler. In WW2 at least we had politicians of integrity, who upheld our democratic values, and around whom the nation could unite. There was no enemy within.

Labour councils are deliberately and routinely underfunded by the government. They do this so the area blames Labour when in reality, it’s the government wilfully creating decline. I wish more people knew this. Know your enemy. It’s the Tories.

To all those socialist purists out there who say they will not support Starmer's party, I leave you this thought:

Bad news for Michael Fabricant as Labour take Barnet.

Dan, you're probably right that I should take a break from engaging with you. So, I'll just say this - for someone who disavows socialism, you seem to be intent on being publicly owned.

If 200 GB companies are no longer exporting to NI, as Johnson just said, then how many more, with the same barriers, are no longer exporting to the EU? Brexit is a fucking disaster #c4news

I think the outcome of the Met investigation is that the Prime Minister attended 6 illegal gatherings but attended 5 of them legally

Please retweet if you no longer believe Metropolitan Police is fit for purpose.

Johnson today " we lead Europe in vaccines " fact check 19th of 30 "our economy is thriving " fact check 74th of 107 "people are better off" fact check Highest inflation in G20 , lowest wages in G20 , lowest pensions in OECD 100 . It is painful.

Can I be blunt here. I don't give a toss if you love or hate Corbyn. I also don't give a toss if you love or hate Starmer. To me personally its immaterial and I couldn't give a fuck. But what I do care about, is voting these bastards out. End of story.

The Torys held a fundraiser evening tonight, despite concerns raised about Russian money in the Conservatives Lubov Chernukhin attended. #UkraineRussiaWar

Many people here seem to think that the function of the voting system is to give you a warm feeling because you voted with your heart. In the voting booth your brain is more use, frankly. Vote for whoever is more likely to defeat the Tory.
