Amazon UK entities' pre-tax profits up from £455m to £555m.

It pays corporation tax at an effective rate of 7.1%, headline rate is 25%. Profits shifted through intragroup transactions.

UK retailers can't compete with hard-wired systematic tax avoidance.

This convicted stalker grabbed her hair, almost sat on her and absolutely terrified her before he "asked for a kiss".

The BBC headline frames this assault like a charmingly polite request in a mutual courtship. It's a strange mistake to make.

Mariana Mazzucato has gone viral after saying what Farage and Boris Johnson did over Brexit was “a crime”.

[Kerry Burgess @KerryBurgess]

It's absolutely ridiculous that our democracy can be purchased by foreign governments and corporations.

Mick Lynch repeatedly humiliates Reform UK's Laila Cunningham

She then accuses Mick Lynch and Labour of spreading lies to "win the argument" denying that Nigel Farage wants an insurance-based NHS

Here are two clips of Nigel Farage saying,

1. He doesn't want the NHS funded through general taxation

2. He wants an insurance-based system for the NHS

[Owen Jones @owenjonesjourno]

Absolutely wild how right-wing commentators and politicians are just completely ignoring the attempted pogrom in Belfast.

Families with kids rescued from homes set on fire.

And these same people who smear peaceful protests against genocide as hate marches say NOTHING

“We need independent media in the [UK]... now more than we’ve ever needed it before.”

@mehdirhasan speak with Zeteo UK Politics Editor @ShehabKhan about what’s broken in British journalism, why he left corporate media, and why the UK needs an independent news outlet.

The same people who are destroying our planet should not be getting subsidised by the government at a time when we're in the climate crisis.

No @AndyBurnhamGM

What we need are safe routes & a fit-for-purpose process to assess claims in a timely manner, & for them to be allowed to work while their claim is assessed

What we don't need are concentration camps that dehumanise asylum seekers & migrants

Fucking NHS. I woke up this morning with some trouble in my eye. Called the optician. Had tests. Sent straight to hospital with a torn retina.

They insisted on giving me laser surgery there and then to fix it. Didn't want any money for the job. Now I'm home again.

How inconsiderate. Joking aside. Remember there are people out there who want to dismantle the NHS.
