@LexiBeaChorlton In the U.K. we pay extra for our National Debt - it’s called the Moron Premium in the fiscal markets and dates back to the Truss Budget - supported by Reform & Tories
It will last until fantasy economics is no-longer a threat
The disruption from Reform & potentially The Greens
A brilliant decision by the Defence Secretary @JohnHealey_MP
British Industry will receive a huge boost through extra defence spending as exemptions will mean more contracts awarded to British firms over American and European firms.
Great Stuff!

We are still losing too many loved ones from drowning an water accidents.
These are preventable deaths. And we need to do more.

"We are honoured our Founder and Patron has been recognised in the @TIME 100 Sports list.
Thank you to TIME for shining a light on the work of the #InvictusGames Foundation and the extraordinary community behind it.
Sport has the power to change lives and, in some cases, to save them. Through the work of the Invictus Games Foundation, wounded, injured and sick service personnel and veterans rediscover purpose, rebuild confidence and regain a sense of identity.
What began as a belief in the power of sport has grown into a global movement, one that not only supports recovery, but creates community, belonging and hope. It proves every day that sport can restore meaning and, for some, be truly life‑saving.
We are proud of this recognition, but most importantly, we are proud of the Invictus Community, whose resilience and determination inspire everything we do.

2. Attack your Party/Leader
Labour Members pretty much fall into Camp 1.
That’s where Burnham collapses in support. The Members are not in his Camp.
Hard lesson coming up!
The Labour government is ending the ridiculous NHS paper-trail bottleneck.
A new £20 million investment lets high-street opticians refer patients directly and digitally into specialist hospital eye services.
No more waiting months for a pointless GP middleman appointment.
No more repeated scans because clinics can’t share files.
100% of NHS optical practices will have direct access to the National Care Record Service by 2028.
This is real structural modernisation under Keir Starmer is moving care closer to your local high street and cutting backlogs.
Tangible progress that actually helps patients.
