Lest we forget just £9.5m of over £23m raised by the Tower Poppies was given to charity & that included a £1.1m VAT rebate.
Millionaire hedge fund manager Ben Whitfield made a seven-figure profit and doubled his money' from financing the Tower of London poppy artwork display.
Your occasional reminder that the 26 CofE Bishops in the House of Lords make the UK one of just two countries in the world, where unelected clerics automatically sit in the legislature.
The other is Iran.
Tesco say they will pay £1b over this Parliament. So £200m per year. They are on target to make a £2.9 BILLION profit this year. They also employ 30,000 people who they expect to be educated and provided health care by the state. Pay up and stop whining #r4today
Here’s a video produced by “Led by Donkeys” out of the U.K. that puts down the timeline of how Musk used X to get Donald Trump elected. I would save it because I don’t think it will be up for long.
🚨I’ve no idea what’s happening on X right now but probably a good time to make sure Elon isn't unfollowing us from each other once again. Please give this an RT to spread the word.
It’s never been more important to tough it out, stay united & continue call the boll**** out
President Biden should resign as an act of protest tomorrow so Kamala Harris could be sworn in as the first female president until January.

He was the worst POTUS in history.
Impeached twice.
Convicted felon.
Tried to stage a coup.
Sold state secrets.

- the overwhelming majority of farmers will be unaffected by the proposed changes to Inheritance Tax
- those complaining about it are the multi-millionaires who saw investing in farmland as an excellent tax avoidance measure.
The right are getting upset about parents who may struggle to afford VAT on private education. But no one gets upset about parents who may struggle to afford school uniforms, or even school dinners. If education is SO important why’s it not important for EVERY child?
After 14 years of their bullshit, listening to Tories whine about the budget is FUCKING SUSTAINING ME.
“We will have to cut back on the grouse and caviar and only take three ski trips next yarrr”
Boo hoo, dickheads. Under you lot nurses survived on food banks.
Cry harder.
Thatcher sold the North Sea oil fields & in return we got a broken Britain & 171 billionaires.
Norway kept their much smaller oil fields & today have the biggest sovereign wealth fund in the world $1.4 trillion.
But yeah, it's socialists that run out of other people's money.
