Conservatives keep doing the same thing & hoping for different results?
Corporate tax cuts will generate a return of about 50p for every £1 of cuts & the benefits won't be felt for years if ever, companies always pay extra dividends, buy back shares or increase CEO pay.

“In the Autumn budget, what I am hoping, and maybe even would go so far as saying expecting to see, are some targeted tax reductions”
Conservatives’ @CPhilpOfficial argues that cutting taxes will stimulate growth, and will fix issues such as the rising cost of fuel. #bbcqt
Working for peace requires acting justly. Every effort should be made to overcome global inequalities, which allow opulence and destitution to carve deep divides between continents, countries, and even within individual societies.
“We will not be silent in front of the man-made humanitarian catastrophe that is taking place before our eyes in Gaza.”
Joint statement by the heads of government of 🇮🇪 🇮🇸 🇱🇺 🇲🇹 🇳🇴 🇸🇮 🇪🇸 on Palestine.
The ‘IDF’ released a video claiming it targeted “underground terrorist infrastructure” beneath the European Hospital—literally drawing it onto an image of the hospital.
The problem? The image wasn’t even of the hospital. They lied again.
@TimesRadio@JonAshworth@PennyMordaunt@cathynewman I do wonder if that pathological need to be liked is why so many politicians are seen as inauthentic while some with the same pathology can cosplay as authentic just by saying mean things… like Führage.
Anyone who said that direct air capture would "decarbonize oil" or even cool down the planet, if we just deployed it at scale, should take a long, hard look in the mirror.
It's not easy to undo entropy.
There needs to be a military intervention against Israel. The list of things humans should go to war for is incredibly short, but stopping genocide is one of them
My main points on what the UK Government should do to respond to Israel’s horrifying new assault on Gaza, beyond working to get the blockade lifted. First, slap sanctions on Smotrich and Ben Gvir for their hateful rhetoric about destroying Gaza and expelling Palestinians. 1/5
On Tuesday evening, @Nigel_Farage , @KemiBadenoch and @jimmycarr attended a party hosted by the Israeli embassy, while they commit genocide in Gaza.
Minister @meaglemp gave a speech boasting of "the RAF conducting surveillance flights over the Eastern Mediterranean.”
@JeremyRaphael31 @Jonatha89250721 @reegnkay In stature, substance & intellect you're a very small man, Jeremy Raphael (with your foreign sounding name), & you've closed the door to personal growth.
Ofcom's decision over a decade ago to limit BBC content on iPlayer cost us the chance to have one of the biggest streaming platforms in the world. To see Ofcom still restricting the BBC today is a shame.
Israeli soldiers and settlers in the wild West Bank: birds of a feather. One with a uniform, one without; both above the law.
How many more war crimes until principled action replaces empty statements?
Palestinians need protection—now.
Israel needs an arms embargo—now.
The Public Authorities (Fraud, Error and Recovery) Bill gives the UK state powers of surveillance on the bank accounts of the poor, old, sick, disabled receiving benefits.
You won't be told, can't appeal against it, no court order needed.
Are you ready?
