Let me see if I understand this . . . 1. The U.S. is at war with Iran. 2. Russia is helping Iran in that war. 3. The U.S. is now giving Russia money that it can use to help Iran destroy U.S. bases and kill U.S. troops. Donald is smart & patriotic like that.

This is completely outrageous and disgusting. This must immediately be blocked by Congress and Trump should be impeached for this. The US is now funding Putin’s war machine as he murders civilians including children. We are lost as a country.

Kemi Badenoch wants to exempt the family home from inheritance tax. But that creates a perverse incentive for elderly people to *upsize* to save IHT. That could double the cost of the policy, and push £100bn+ from savings into housing. A 🧵 on bad tax cuts.

There is a rather wider minority for abolishing the Monarchy (about 1 in 5 to 1 in 4) than for the controversy of whether only white people can be English (1 in 10). It is weird the media classes are so rarely across how niche this 'controversy' is - about 1/4 Reform voters, but few others

Braverman shows Tories share same priorities as Reform — looking after a rich minority at the cost of the majority According to most recent figures from HMRC a mere 4.72% of deaths in UK result in an Inheritance Tax, which is 1 in 20 estates So 95% don’t pay it but they’re just not important 😡
bbc.co.uk
Badenoch says Tories would scrap inheritance tax on family homes and allow couples to leave extra £1m
The leader of the opposition says the changes would mean the number of families paying inheritance tax would "fall by more than half".

At around 6:00 a.m., Russia launched a missile strike on Pryluky, Chernihiv Oblast. One missile hit a five-story residential building. At this time, the bodies of three children have been recovered from under the rubble, and the death toll has risen to nine people.

1/ In the coverage of far-right activist Danny Tommo's detention after slashing a migrant dinghy in the Channel, an important point seems to have been widely overlooked: he allegedly committed another crime *after* being arrested, which could result in 12 years in jail. ⬇️

A man builds an IED. He sets it off in a busy public street. Shrapnel flies about hitting cars, homes and a child's bedroom. It's a miracle nobody is injured. And Reform MP Sarah Pochin calls his imprisonment "disproportionate" and "two tier justice."
It does raise this point of two-tiered
justice..


Reform's Sarah Pochin believes the
sentence handed to the 64-year-old who
blew up a ULEZ camera was
disproportionate'.
