I think they blackballed me because of this.

A reminder of the cost of triple lock increases on state pensions.

Pensioners may be £1,000 better off today than if pensions had risen in line with earnings.

But it's the workers, whose incomes can only rise in line with earnings, who are paying for that extra £1,000 per year.

x c.13,000,000 pensioners, that's an extra £13 billion, every year.

Powerful advocacy here.

Why is @UKLabour on a mission to alienate its core vote?

No wonder leaseholders are now looking to @ZackPolanski and the Greens as they push for leasehold abolition.

@LifeBrockwell As someone who was in the area all weekend - I had no problem getting around, buses were on time, and people were having no issue walking to the train station. Was great seeing local businesses thriving from the extra visitors to the area.

[Dr Jan @DrRavioliPoly]

People need to get this into their skulls.

Train drivers are not overpaid, their unions have simply kept their wage in line with inflation over the decades. YOU are unperpaid!

This is Jess Philips.

Do you know who should really be ashamed? @RobertJenrick who was Home Office minister Oct 2022 to Dec 2023 and is capitalising on far right lies.

The Tories for allocating child sex abuse victims £40 each and Elon Musk for being a dangerous ignorant moron.

Friendly reminder, Fuck the Tories for partying during the 2020 lockdown:

Up and down the country boxing day hunts are out . . . 'trail' hunting .

We know it's just a smokescreen for illegal fox hunting– we need a proper ban @UKLabour !

James O’Brien delivered this epic scathing monologue whilst FARAGE WAS IN THE ROOM.

Fucking legendary.

[@joshfwd.bsky.social @JoshFwd]

for some reason Boris Johnson was missing from that declared accepted gifts chart.

i fixed it.

[James O'Brien @mrjamesob]

The total of hospitality & gifts *declared* by Keir Starmer since 2019 is £12,500 *less* than Boris Johnson accepted from Lord Brownlow for home decor. He tried to keep this *secret* by claiming he couldn't remember who'd paid & had lost the phone containing all relevant messages

[Led By Donkeys @ByDonkeys]

We just dropped in on Liz Truss’s pro-Trump speaking tour with a remote-controlled lettuce banner. She didn’t find it funny. 🥬

[Hugo Rifkind @hugorifkind]

Being the only person in shot to have brought his own cagoule is the most Keir Starmer thing I can imagine.

[Paul Powlesland @paulpowlesland]

Both of the actions you see in these photos potentially amount to the offence of ‘public nuisance’.

One is punishable with “long, long prison sentences” & the other is rewarded with huge bonuses & billions in profits.

Why the disparity? What does this mean for the rule of law?

[Alex Tiffin @RespectIsVital]

The late and great Charles Kennedy on the ridiculousness of Section 28.
