If you feel like donating to the RNLI, here’s a link. I just have. Their minimum donation is £2: I think it might be nice for them to receive a lot of donations this week, even if they’re mostly very modest. Just so they know a lot of people out here appreciate their work. rnli.org/support-us/g...

Reform Uk are the party of working people. That’s why we would abolish the minimum wage and why we voted against improved employment protections, against abolishing zero hours contracts and against banning fire and rehire practices.

Almost £10 billion of the £15 billion that Boris Johnson's Government spent on PPE during the pandemic was wasted, the Covid Inquiry has concluded. The Inquiry found money was wasted on a "vast" scale, with companies with "connections to government" given first preference for contracts

Marshall Wace has gained around £11.7 million in that time period by betting against the bank. The fall in share price was mostly due to the exit of Dame Alison Rose as CEO after Coutts closed Farage’s account. Farage presents a show on Marshall’s GB News www.standard.co.uk/business/gb-...

Ben Habib just casually alleged that Farage and Johnson were each handed £1m by Christopher Harborne to “fix an election”. The real story shouldn't be Starmer. The £5m bung is just the tip of the iceberg, maybe the press should camp outside Farage’s pad instead of No.10?
