We've just launched a major report: between 2018 and 2020, almost 400,000 people earning less than £13k received a penalty for filing a tax return late. Very few had any tax to pay. But they were fined at least £100, and often thousands of pounds. https://t.co/zu5AvbS8c3
Eurostar is having to leave thousands of seats unsold on trains between London, Paris, Brussels and Amsterdam because post-Brexit passport checks mean stations could not cope if Eurostar filled its trains.
Morning trains capped at just 550 out of 900 seats

This man murdered his ex-partner in a brutal pre-meditated attack then went to the pub & left her bleeding to death. Here’s the media reporting on his sporting prowess (&warning silly women to protect themselves better). In 2023. #everydaysexism
In a letter to @CommonsTreasury, @JimHarraHMRC reveals that a tenth person has tragically killed themeselves facing @HMRCgovuk action related to the #LoanCharge.
Now 10 #LoanChargeSuicides.
We have continually warned of the suicide risk of this immoral law. It MUST be changed.
🚨 Last week Christopher Harborne gave £1m to Boris Johnson.
This week QinetiQ - the UK defence company whose biggest shareholder is Harborne - won an £80m government contract...
Great scoop from @jimfitznews (also in morning's Politico London playbook)

New development. Guardian reporting Zahawi paid the tax plus interest, plus a 30% penalty - over £5m.
30% is at the lower end of what I'd expect. But the obvious point: people whose taxes are "fully up to date" don't pay 30% penalties to HMRC. https://t.co/eU80VjO4zf
This is nothing less than a stitch-up. Mega-wealthy landowners are commercialising access to nature & wild camping for their own profit, and holding the public hostage - we must continue the campaign for free & open access

Have to say that Rings Of Power made Galadriel into one of my favorite female protagonists in popular media ever. I loved what was done with her character while drawing so much from the First Age version of her character from The Silmarillion and Unfinished Tales.
OF FUCKING COURSE: The Utah man who fatally shot his wife, her mother and their five kids had been investigated two years prior for child abuse, but local police and prosecutors decided not to criminally charge him.

It's depressing to consider, but I suspect the demise of skiing in the Alps will prove to be far more consequential to the rich world's awareness of climate change than news that one third of Pakistan is underwater.
Last year PM Boris Johnson took his entourage of 24 out for a banquet in New York. He paid £4445.07 & used the Foreign Office's credit card. Remember, you paid for this & 10 infant school children could have been fed for a year instead.
They know no shame. https://t.co/R8LXAvuwUj
When Suella Braverman was called out by *Holocaust Survivor* Joan Salter for using racist language (“invasion”), the Home Sec used a *Government Press Office* to demand that the charity that filmed the exchange removed the video from Twitter. WELCOME TO DYSTOPIA @FreefromTorture
My first wild camp in 2008 on Dartmoor, it set me off on a journey that brought me to where I am today.
Camping on Dartmoor is now illegal. The courts came down on the side of the land owner yet again. Shame on everyone involved in that decision.
Time to trespass!
