The absence of a tax is not a tax break.
The United Kingdom includes all educational institutions large and small as ‘eligible bodies’ to ensure their educational enterprise is not hindered or compromised by VAT.
UNTIL NOW - when a narrow cohort has been excluded for the purpose of tax gouging.
It is a policy of bias, discrimination and prejudice without pedagogical principle and it harms many children.
No Secretary of State for Education should set out to deliberately harm children. It is morally reprehensible.
The EU has invited Taliban officials to Brussels to discuss a migration deal — and today I am shaken and deeply disturbed by this.
This is the same Taliban that banned girls from secondary schools and forced them into marriage. The same Taliban that, earlier this month, arrested dozens of women in Herat for how they were dressed. The same Taliban that detains, beats and executes women who dare to speak out or break their rules.
Through its system of gender apartheid, the Taliban have erased women and girls from public life. Europe must not legitimise a regime responsible for one of the worst human rights crises in the world.
Any engagement with the Taliban must begin and end with the rights of Afghan women and girls.
Strange, soulless man should never have been Prime Minister.
Starmer owed his loyalty to international human rights racket not the British people whom he accused of “hatred and division”.
We hated him alright.
“Stop the boats” son of toolmaker - be gone!
A real long shot but can people retweet this please.
Yesterday all my items were stolen in Eastbourne including my stats book which has 20 years worth of details in. Laptops, phones, clothes, shavers etc can all be replaced but this can’t and is useless to anyone else. It’s in a plastic folder you can see in the left hand side of this photo. Can anyone in that neck of the woods please keep an eye out. I’m gutted about this.

A small public service announcement from the Department of Things That You Should Know…
It has not “peeked” your interest.
Nor has it “peaked” your interest.
…It has piqued your interest.
You are not “phased” by something.
You are fazed by it.
If you’ve had a long day, you are weary.
If you suspect someone is an idiot, you are wary.
It is “due course”, not “do course”.
“Per se”, not “per say”.
And while we’re here, it’s “could have”, not “could of”, but that particular battle may already be lost.
Thank you for your attention during this brief outbreak of grammatical housekeeping.
This has been a @LairdofthManor announcement.🎩💙
@writtenoff_mufc Yes.
Be a parent and don’t let your kids have phones or social media.
The responsibility to raise your children is on you, not the government.
We owe those who serve the UK the kit to do the job and the loyalty to stand by them when it's done. We are failing on both.
I’ve spent my whole time in government making that case. Number 10 will not listen, so I am resigning as Minister for the Armed Forces.
