SOCIALIST WAY TO REDUCE ‘WELFARE’ Millions of folk on low wages are in receipt of housing benefit. No problem. But if the company distributes profits to share holders or in dividends to directors, then the state should recover that money from the employer.

Dear Chris Mason, Every single thing the prime minister said to you is correct - and perfectly proper. You are twisting his words to make up a story to justify your salary - which is three times more than his.

Dear Daily Mail reader, If the government doubled the state pension you would still have to sell your house to pay for care. Have you really got £500,000 in savings? No? Then support Andy Burnham. He guarantees big pension increases till 2030, and then guarantees it will at least match inflation.

Newspapers like football teams need foreign audiences for income generation. Hence, New Zealand bird of the year (monthly) in the Guardian. But who the hell reads all those columns by all those handwringing Uriah Heaps? It’s like having a boorish uncle at the kitchen table every breakfast.
