Agree. Other big cities around the world don’t allow their residential property to be bought as investments by international buyers who never live there. It guts the city. Why have we allowed it?

Fixing our broken economy without ditching Boris Johnson's Hard Brexit is like paddling upstream without using your paddle. Labour needs to stop putting its party political interest before the public interest. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

They’re all quite mad.

Say what you like about Nigel Farage… But he knows his audience and how to entertain them …which it turns out is the same entertainment as a toddler’s birthday party.

Keir Starmer gives his Chief of Staff a pay rise… The Times leads with it. Boris Johnson tries to hire his girlfriend as his Chief of Staff… The Times speaks with Johnson’s team and then pulls the story. Pathetic.

So I made the mistake of looking at the BBC News (UK) website today. It reads like the UK Conservative Party has editorial control. A shame to see the once independent BBC come to this.

Over the last 30 years there has been a 50% reduction in NHS bed capacity. That’s why people are being treated in corridors That’s why ambulances are stuck outside A&E That’s why there’s no space to reduce waiting lists. It’s not rocket science… Stop shrinking our NHS!!

That is the advantage of membership: we negotiate solutions that suit us all between us. And that's an advantage with third countries: we negotiate to suit Europe. Exceptionalists who think that they can bully Europe into giving up 90/180 or giving FoM just don't get it. Ends

"And now you can't even block me on Twitter..."

"Cut to the chase: Windermere was ‘used as an open sewer’ because of privatisation." Finding it very hard to disagree with that sentiment. thecanary.co/uk/analysis/20…

Hugh Grosvenor Duke of Westminster inherited £8.3bn and didn’t pay a penny of the £3.3bn inheritance tax. Inheritance tax needs fixing so it is not optional for the Super Rich.

Funny, isn't it. I have liked & retreated this SEVEN times today. And yet, friends send me it by DM and guess what - my likes & RTs have vanished. It is blatant now.

Day 51 of asking.

Sorrywhatpardon?

Richard Hughes(OBR): "There was about £9.5b worth of net pressure on department budgets, which they(Tories) did not disclose to us as part of our usual budget preparation... which under the law & under the act they should have done.."

The Royal Family should pay reparations to the NHS Head of state taking 11 million away from the service that’s vital for the health of their people. Absolutely shameless.

Conservative Rural Forum Kemi Badenoch It'll come as no shock to know who the Tory Party is looking after and according to the IFS, that's "a remarkably small number of the largest farms"

Credit to Keir Starmer for giving the independent adviser on Ministerial standards the power to investigate alleged breaches of the Ministerial Code whether or not the PM wants him or her to. It will cause him problems but absolutely the right thing to do gov.uk/government/pub…

The appointment of RF Kennedy Jnr as US Health Secretary to pursue an anti-vaccine agenda is a new low. A total repudiation of the Enlightenment values on which the US republic is founded. For all of us who admire the US this is a crisis moment. Instead Britain must fly the flag

It’s November 2024 and I am listening for the first time ever to BBCs ‚Today‘ talking about the damage Brexit has done to Britain. I mean, it has just been 8 years..
