BP quarterly profits up from $2.5bn to $5.73bn as Iran war sends oil prices soaring. Shell doubled its net profit to almost $10bn. High bills fuelling poverty and misery for households and businesses. Boon for execs and shareholders. Must levy 100% windfall tax on oil, gas, energy companies.

UK income tax personal allowance frozen at £12,570 since 2021. If increased in line with inflation, it would be £16,048 for 2026/27. As a result, in 2026/27 someone earning £17,000 will pay additional £696 in income tax and £278 in national insurance. All because govts appease the rich.

There’s absolutely no reason for any media outlet to give Farage, or that Goodwin rat, any airtime whatsoever to turn that tragedy into their own racist horrorshow. It’s against the family’s explicit wishes and Farage must not get to swan in and out of studios as he sees fit. Christ what a disgrace.
