Wes Streeting having the chutzpah to tell the story about the NHS. He doesn't tell the bit about how much he's accepted from private healthcare and the risk our NHS is at under this Labour Government. And most of all, lots of questions about his meetings with Palantir. #BBCQT
Who's got a piece of Wes Streeting?

Kind of feels like a big deal that a Reform/Brexit Party former MEP has been convicted of taking bribes to promote Russian interests in Ukraine, and it feels like a bigger deal that this isn’t being treated as the major scandal that it clearly is.

For every $1 the IRS spends auditing the top 1%, it can collect $13. For every $1 the IRS spends auditing the top 0.1%, it can collect $26. Laying off 7,000 IRS employees (during tax season) isn't about efficiency. It's about making it easier for the rich to evade taxes.
