Happy 60th birthday Midlands Today!
It’s a privilege to work with an amazing team who work tirelessly to tell your extraordinary stories.
It’s also no exaggeration to say that working here has changed my life.
Here’s to many more years!
How ridiculous that this family own 10 miles of the seabed round the UK and earn from any windfarms/development. Retweet if all monies earned should go to finance public services #AbolishTheMonarchy#KevinMaguire
King Charles inherited £650m tax free, gets £354m a year tax free from the tax payer including £132m personal spending money and has an estate worth £22bn that’s never taxed.
Like if he needs a pay cut.
RT if you want the Monarchy gone.

Trooping the Colour to celebrate King Charles birthday cost £10m, of course Charles spent your money, not his £125m money, that is also yours, that he already took
But what could £10m have paid for?
350 Nurses, 200 Doctors, 2500 people on benefits, or 500,000 GP appointments
When I need to call out a plumber I’m grateful to pay £40/h because I don’t have the first clue how to fix my boiler, or the skills to fix a burst pipe
Doctors are asking for half of that, to fix your kids
In life we get the health services we pay for
Victoria Derbyshire, "Look at what you're doing to young people.. You're going to force them to do National Service.. You've tripled their tuition fees.. You froze the threshold at which they have to start paying back their student loan.. You've extended the student loan repayment terms from 30 to 40 years.. Meaning many graduates will be paying off their debts in their 60s.. You've invested only a third of what was recommended by the catch up tsar to help kids catch up after the pandemic.. Rents rose nearly 9% in the last year.. And houses at their most expensive since 1876.. Have the Tories got a problem with young people?"
Mark Harper, "No, not at all"
King Charles has given Royal Assent to the #RwandaBill, which he described as "Appalling" What is the fucking point of him? Head of the Church of England gives Royal Assent to inhumane legislation that breaks International Law.
