Marta Kostyuk after reaching Roland Garros semifinals: "We played historical match today with Elina. We had very difficult night again in Ukraine, especially Kyiv. So many people dead. I want to give this match to Ukrainian people and their resilience. Thank you. Slava Ukraini!

Delightfully surreal moment of Tory conference when Katie Lam did a speech about how great Pitt was. "True, he did introduce the UK's first income tax" [audience howls of "boo!" "shame!"] "BUT it was to fund war with France" [audience cheers of "hear hear" and "sound!"] Tory memberhip encapsulated

I have seen a lot of NIMBY selfishness in my time, but "my convenience matters more than cancer care" is a new low. Quite seriously tempted to email them and tell them as much.

If you're replying to a post about torched ambulances in London with a point about Israel, you've crossed the line into antisemitism. And you're doing absolutely nothing to help any cause. Even if you consider yourself one of the good people. Maybe especially so. You've just caught racism.

I did. I have absolutely no issue with any criticism of the Israeli government who have spent the last few years enthusiastically committing war crimes. But anyone who thinks Jews in another country need answer for that is a racist, a crank, and - I can't stress this enough - a piece of fucking shit

I cannot regret the ayatollah and his thugs getting some justice meted out to them. But I wish this had been delivered back when the US promised Iranian protesters “help is on the way”, instead of weeks later once tens of thousands of them have been murdered by the regime.

A tale of two billionaires. Jeff Bezos was at fashion week in Europe while he pulled a let-them-eat-cake firing of 30% of Washington Post journalists. Jimmy Lai stood by his newsroom and he will now likely die in a Hong Kong prison. Tell everyone you know about Jimmy Lai.

My dear friend Nader alerted me to two Iranian members of the Arsenal family, Aref Jafarzadeh and Amir Housein, who were killed while seeking freedom in Iran. We remember them. ❤️

People aren't engaging with her arguments either, which is that these are separate processes. People saying e.g. 'You can't build these houses because people won't be able to get a dentist' ignores that no one can get a dentist anyway. It's idiotic to leave people both homeless *and* with bad teeth.

This is a great piece on the urgent need to scrap stamp duty and council tax and replace them with a single property tax, with a variety of ideas for how you could do so fairly www.thetimes.com/business-mon...

It’s time to ditch stamp duty and council tax for one property tax
Britain taxes homes in a way that is outdated, damaging and economically outdated. If only the chancellor would listen to ideas for reform

Whilst the PGMOL try to spin the narrative about protecting Michael Oliver, they are actively pushing the narrative that an 18 year old, who has played under 1,000 minutes of senior footbal, tried to endanger an opponent. Where is the protection for Myles Lewis-Skelly? #AFC

This is really shocking: and true. I discovered I'd just been upgraded without consent to an AI-enshittified package that was about £30 a year more expensive. Strongly recommend anyone who has an Office 365 follow the below advice to get rid of it

So much misinformation around today on who will be affected by changes to inheritance tax - and lobbyists pretending the data isn't clear to obfuscate. We have detailed data on estates so the truth is in fact very clear if you care to look 🧵

And these numbers include those who aren't remotely real farmers but simply engaged in active tax planning. How do we know? Because we can see that around a fifth of those affected don't just own fields but lots of (IHT relieved) AIM shares - a clear sign of active tax planning
