Comparison of state pension in G7 shows that the UK state pension is the least generous. Countries have wide variance in how retirement incomes are funded and how returns are calculated. Purists might want more nuanced data but this is what we have. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home...

Richest 1% of Britons owns more wealth than the bottom 70% of the population combined. 50 richest families hold more wealth than the poorest half of the population combined. The concentration of wealth in fewer hands has not provided the necessary economic stimulus. Need redistribution.

This is how the Chancellor can increase the personal allowance and lift millions out of hardship

Sustained economic growth can’t be achieved without a major boost to the purchasing power of the bottom 50% of the population

Here’s the most incredible story you’ll read today. A small plane with four people aboard crashes in a field. Another pilot witnesses it. That pilot happens to be flying a bunch of skydivers. They offer to jump to assist, are given permission. The skydivers happen to be EMTs. Everyone survives.

Skydivers alert emergency crews, assist after plane crashes near East Troy airport

Four people were aboard the single-engine plane when it went down in a cornfield near Carvers School Road in East Troy at about 1:30 p.m.

I felt very old when I had to ask a 24-year-old what "Tommy K" was. Expected it was some brand of clothing. She looked at me like I was living under a rock and said "Tomato ketchup".

🔭 Astrophysicist Dr. Andrea Dupree: + Led the team that used the Hubble to capture the first image of a star's surface + Discovered fast, hot winds emitting from young stars (advanced understanding of early planetary environments) + Contributed to the ongoing search of exoplanets #WomenInSTEM 🧵

A close-up photograph of internationally recognized astrophysicist Dr. Andrea Kundsin Dupree (born September 17, 1939) smiling directly at the camera. Dr. Dupree is celebrated for major scientific breakthroughs, including leading the team that captured the first direct image of another star's surface (Betelgeuse) using the Hubble Space Telescope, discovering fast, hot stellar winds, and serving as the first female Associate Director at the Center for Astrophysics | Harvard & Smithsonian. In the photograph, she is shown from the chest up, leaning slightly toward the right. Her joyful expression features a wide, open-mouthed smile, crinkling around her blue eyes, and vibrant short blonde hair parted to the side. She wears a solid black V-neck t-shirt accessorized with large silver hoop earrings and a prominent, colorful statement necklace composed of oversized, smooth, rounded beads in alternating shades of red, green, purple, orange, pink, and translucent blue. The background is a softly blurred outdoor setting, bathed in the warm, golden light of late afternoon or sunset. It reveals dry, grassy terrain with low shrubs and sparse trees under an open sky, creating a relaxed and cheerful mood.
