UK law firm partners collect record pay, up to £2.5m per equity partner. Partners treated as self-employed. Firms don't pay employer national insurance (ENI) on profit taken by partners. £150k ENI dodged for every £1m profit shared. Public purse deprived. Must end this tax perk. archive.ph/vJCIj

A fairer voting system can't wait until after the next general election. We need electoral reform now.
WE NEED FAIR VOTING BEFORE THE NEXT ELECTION
 
ELLIE CHOWNS
MP FOR NORTH HEREFORDSHIRE
 
"The PM cannot acknowledge the unfairness of a system capable of handing power to a government with a minority of the vote share, and then say the answer is to let that happen exactly once more before he fixes it.
 
Burnham must act with urgency to immediately jumpstart the National Commission, guarantee timely progress, and ensure its recommendations are delivered in time for a fairer voting system to be in place at the next general election."

Shareholders have extracted billions. That amount could have gone into infrastructure. The cost of borrowing would be less, leaving more for infrastructure investment and/or lower bills.

Tom Watson’s move to Palantir is the latest sign of how far the rot has spread in UK politics. Like Blair, Cameron, Clegg, Mandelson, hired to open govt networks to companies and corporate capture of the state. They sell political capital built with public money. What do we get in return?

"In my work with the defendants (at the Nuremberg Trails 1945-1949) 1 was searching for the nature of evil and I now think I have come close to defining it. A lack of empathy. It's the one characteristic that connects all the defendants, a genuine incapacity to feel with their fellow men. Evil, I think, is the absence of empathy."
