Amazon UK pulled in £8.2bn revenue and even reported £355m in profit.
But they didn't pay ANY tax.
The reason you have to pay so much, is because they don't pay any.
Mehdi Hasan on the Belfast attack,
"As far as we know this person was here legally as someone who was approved by the then Conservative government"
"He's from Sudan. Most people would agree people fleeing from Sudan are genuine refugees"
"Whatever your politics we can agree there is a genocide going on in Sudan"
"That doesn't excuse the horrific crime that he committed, obviously"
"But the idea that we suddenly reduce this to illegal immigration"
"And Elon Musk pushing this is absurd, because Musk was an immigrant to the Unites States"
"His own brother claimed that they were both illegal immigrants at one point"
"People exploiting this for political gain.. Making everything about immigration.. Like the murder of Henry Nowak"
"The person who killed Henry Nowak was born in Britain. His father was born in Britain. But that's been made an immigration story as well"
Some of y’all aren’t scared enough about running out of potable water. We need it to survive, our pets and farms do too. Data centres are using it up and wasting it. They project we could run out by 2039. Thirteen years. Stop asking AI questions, it’s not worth it.
He doesn’t think of the victim
He doesn’t call for peace
He doesn’t ask for a thorough investigation
He doesn’t ask for an end to violence
He asks what his race is to whip up hate.
An evil little man.
FACT: Female victims who kill in SELF DEFENSE will spend an average of 15 years behind bars

What you’re seeing play out is skewed.
Women are killed by men at shocking rates.
White male British nationals commit the vast majority of all crime in this country.
It’s selective amplification and selective outrage to stoke fear and panic.
Don’t believe the bullshit.
AI for the poor, actual human teachers for the rich. This is a class issue and we need to recognise it as such, in order to fight this effectively in schools.
The rich wouldn’t accept this for their own kids!
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.

Kevin Maguire: "After the attack on the Liverpool football parade & it was a white guy, middle class, former royal marine, no-one went after other white, middle class former marines & set this person represents that entire group"
Wait, so we were told to take shorter showers, turn off the tap while brushing our teeth, and conserve water at every opportunity… but data centers can show up and use millions of gallons like it’s nothing?
Mick Lynch is just one of those men that has a way of speaking with integrity and with heart - when Laila Cunningham talks about immigrants taking advantage he replies
"We, the British people believe in helping one another through a fair tax system...you believe in making your friends richer"
Truer words never said. 👏👏👏
Privatisation of the water industry has been a fraud, the greatest act of criminality ever perpetrated against the people of England and Wales.
Today I raised an urgent question in parliament about the systemic failures in the water sector.
The constants disasters of privatised water are not the symptoms of market failure. This is the market working as designed: profits out, sewage in, cost of living up, security of supply, decimated. You can no more regulate privatised water companies than you can the tide.
So I asked the Minister for Water: how many more failures, how many more inquiries, how many more deaths - before the Government accepts these problems are systemic – and gives the public the option of taking their water back?
Keir Starmer has announced that AI tutors will be rolled out to 450,000 children on free school meals to close the attainment gap.
