andy burnham is running the government like a decent software team.

everyone knows the big stuff is complicated and takes years, and while you’re heads down on it people start asking what you’re even doing.

so you ship quick wins. small, visible, annoying bugs that are cheap to fix. garish shopfronts, vape shops, bookies. things people walk past every day.

say what you want about the politics, it’s competent product management

Medium home £271k

Medium council tax bill £1,868

Tax under this proposal: £1,300

The average homeowner would save £567

At the expense of anyone with overvalued homes, of which a value tax would bring down over time, like Texas

But recent buyers to the bubble won't like it

Them recreating the Office intro just caps off an excellent week of comms - completely neutralises the David Brent stuff by leaning into it

Bravo

So there’s no point having an ISA?

[Politics UK @PolitlcsUK]

🚨 NEW: The UK has announced that interest on cash in Stocks and Shares ISAs will be taxed at 22%

The rates of domestic abuse increase by 38% when England Lose

The rates of domestic abuse increase by 28% when England play

The problem isn’t Football, It’s violence against women perpetrated by men

🚨 BREAKING: The BBC has revealed the Russian Government was behind the arson attacks on Keir Starmer's home and car

[Politics UK @PolitlcsUK]

🚨 NEW: The BBC has revealed Russia has been setting up fake far-right and Islamist groups in the UK to stoke division

Operatives paid people to vandalise mosques, spread extremist propaganda and inflame tensions after the Southport riots

[Kush @kushika_twt]

The first trillionaire being announced before the end of child poverty is not a success story.

It’s a moral failure.

[Trades Union Congress @The_TUC]

Elon Musk could build hospitals. He could fund schools and universities. He could help eradicate diseases.

Instead he uses his wealth to fuel hate.

[Jacob Higham @JacobHigham19]

Fucking disgusting.

🚨🌎 BREAKING: Elon Musk has become the world’s first trillionaire

A tight race in the ‘I’m more northern than you’ contest…

Who won for you?

[Saul Staniforth @SaulStaniforth]

Andy Burnham says politicians know their words have consequences, and he references Farages comments on Tuesday morning & the violence in Southampton later that same day.

[Mukhtar @I_amMukhtar]

Fiona Bruce is actually a terrible journalist. Big up the audience member who brought up the £5M donation that Nigel Farage received from the crypto billionaire.

And he did say "up the ra" for £87.

[Mukhtar @I_amMukhtar]

Reform Candidate for Makerfield by-election Robert Kenyon got cooked and laughed at Question Time.

"I'd rather have a career politician than a plumber who is a sexist"

"You described yourself as a sexist"

He replied, "allegedly." It's all a joke to him.

He also refused to apologise to Carol Vorderman.

[Richard Burgon MP @RichardBurgon]

Nigel Farage has missed 77 out of the last 77 votes in the House of Commons!

Bet he doesn't have the same problem turning up for one of his highly paid second jobs.

Or to meetings with wealthy donors when there's another big money "gift" on offer.

[Edward Hardy @EdwardTHardy]

Manchester Pride generated an estimated £104.8 million for the Greater Manchester region between 2021 and 2025

The event sees hotels fill up in the city and business thrive

Spending around £35,000 is a small cost to secure such a strong boost for the city

[Mukhtar @I_amMukhtar]

Nigel Farage hasn't voted in Parliament for the last 11 weeks and has now missed 77 votes in a row, according to official records. The last time he turned up was to vote against adraft regulations for the Employment Rights Act, and that says it all.
