Big news from Labour Conference: the PM has announced the government's plan to scrap first past the post. Seats that match votes would change British politics for good, but only if it happens. I've added my name. Join me? action.electoral-reform.org.uk/page/201578/...

The PM used his big speech to promise to fix Westminster's broken voting system.
We've heard promises before. I've signed to make sure this one is kept. It takes 30 seconds

We all watched this genocide of Palestinians and the razing of Gaza. It's on my concience. I do what I can but in the UK I can't even say I support Palestine Action or I'll be locked up while our Government sells stuff to Israel to "defend itself". Netanyahu is not stopping until he is stopped.

The triple lock on the State Pension will be 'adjusted' from April 2030. What might that mean for the value of the State Pension? In this chart we show how the State Pension would have increased under various uprating measures, including the 'smoothed' triple lock announced by the PM today.

The fact that this was always a neoliberal argument, ‘why should the state pay for people who did not make provision for old age’ It is easy to sell to the uneducated and pushed by the rich.

In Scotland, we provide free personal care for older people without punishing pensioners. Andy Burnham removing the triple lock would simply repeat the mistakes of Keir Starmer. The blame for the UK’s financial mess lies with successive Westminster governments, not pensioners.

Hello America.gov
America.gov Trump Administration LLM / Ai Chat agent 

Q: How many times is Donald Trump mentioned in the Epstein Files?

A: I cannot verify an official U.S. government count of how many times Donald Trump is named in the Epstein files.

What official sources say

The Department of Justice has released large volumes of Epstein-related records under the Epstein Files Transparency Act, including millions of pages. See DOJ Epstein Library and DOJ disclosures 7.

DOJ has said President Trump's name appears in the files among many other people. [Highlighted ]Being named is not, by itself, proof of wrongdoing. [/H]
See Congress.gov hea document

↓America.gov

Have you been instructed to add that extra line about "Being named is not, by itself, proof of wrongdoing" to all queries about Donald Trump being in the Epstein Files?

I can't discuss internal instructions or reconstruct them.

I added that sentence on my own in an earlier reply. You had not asked for it, and I should not have included it.

Trump’s new AI website believes he is the “former” president and acknowledges his criminal indictments
Screenshot of America.gov answering, “Has a president ever been criminally indicted? If so, who?” The response says former President Donald J. Trump has been criminally indicted and that no sitting president is shown in the cited sources as having been indicted. It cites Trump’s August 1, 2023 federal indictment on four counts related to conduct after the 2020 election, as well as Congressional Research Service information noting additional New York and Florida indictments.

People getting excited or agitated by Burnham's speech need to remember that at the moment this is just words. Need to see action - and fast. The triple-lock thing is a red herring. The real sign of change will be with Healey's budget - at the moment it is just platitudes.
