My MAGA neighbor five minutes ago: “I just read that tariffs are going to raise prices for stuff. I don’t get it. I thought China was going to pay them.”

I explained how tariffs work. I wish you could see the look on the guy’s face when it sunk in.

So much ignorance out there.

If the US election has proven anything, sexual assault allegations don't ruin a man's career (let alone his life) because you can be convicted of sexual assault and still be elected president of the United States...

EXCUSE ME HI I HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY 🙋‍♀️ I can’t wait to see so many of you on The Eras Tour next year at these new international dates! Visit https://t.co/EYBevxhQzH for more information on your registrations, pre-sales and on-sales!!

BREAKING🚨| The government has announced anti-strike legislation.

When workers democratically vote to strike, they can be forced to work and sacked if they don’t. This is wrong, unworkable, and almost certainly illegal.

#PMQs Fact Check

Rishi Sunak acts like the country hasn't watched the Tories commit medical fraud for years.

But the Tory corruption and cronysm in PPE procurement during Covid was so pervasive, the PM cannot pretend to be shocked about it

MUST WATCH @Femi_Sorry

Dear @RishiSunak, the UK is on the brink of a personal finance precipice. Today you, only you, have the tools to pull it back. To save lives. To improve living standards. To reduce millions' anxiety

This is what builds a legacy and makes a great Chancellor. Pls seize the chance

30°C above normal in the Arctic today.
40°C above normal in the Antarctic today.
It would be unbelievable if it were not true.
And it is terrifying beyond words.
The war we have waged against the natural world has, in climatic terms, just gone nuclear.

Unlike most European states (especially during WW1/WW2), Britain has not experienced large scale invasions for centuries. But globally, we've been invaders.

Being invaded is an abstract concept for the UK. I think about this a lot when I see Putin apologism being spouted here.

[The Labour Party @UKLabour]

The Conservatives promised a VAT cut, but now refuse to help those who need it.

Labour will give people security, including a VAT cut on household energy bills.

[Keir Starmer @Keir_Starmer]

Honesty and decency matter.

After months of denials the Prime Minister is now under criminal investigations for breaking his own lockdown laws.

He needs to do the decent thing and resign.

[Jeremy Corbyn @jeremycorbyn]

All the evidence shows that the £20 Universal Credit cut is deeply damaging our society and economy.

It must be reserved, and an uplift also applied for people on legacy benefits, who have been treated abhorrently by this callous Government.

[Nick Pettigrew @Nick_Pettigrew]

It's why the Downing St parties matter. Every funeral missed, every unattended life event, all of it. People quietly allowed heartbreak they'll never recover from into their lives, without complaint or hope of reward, because of a sense of duty their leaders have never displayed.

Home Sweet Home. I’ve always dreamt of doing An Audience With… There was so much love in the room for eachother, it felt like such a gig! Everyone was raucous and bang up for it! And my teacher Ms McDonald was there, it was just heaven ♥️

Reference the online discussion about the dumping of raw sewage.

There are a lot of MPs that are trying to justify their vote.

I've checked out the details of the actual amedment.

It reads ...
