Pete Hegseth has reportedly fired 20% of the military's generals, claiming, "No fatties, no trannies, no beardos, no weirdos, no wimps, no radicals. Just warriors." This toxically masculine ethos sounds straight out of the handbook of Doug Wilson, Hegseth's Christian nationalist spiritual advisor.

Deloitte paid its UK-based partners £1.125m. Firm has 784 equity partners. Due to self-employed status of partners, employer national insurance (ENI) is not paid on profits shared. 150,000 ENI avoided on every £1m of profits shared. Billions lost across the country. Must end this privilege.

Richest 1% of Britons owns more wealth than the bottom 70% of the population combined. 50 richest families hold more wealth than the poorest half of the population combined. The concentration of wealth in fewer hands has not provided the necessary economic stimulus. Need redistribution.

The pension triple lock is out, and a National Social Care service is planned. What I once thought was a do-not-touch subject was manhandled by Andy Burnham - but will the risk pay off? After a very optimistic, being honest, brilliantly delivered speech, is there a bit of room for hope again?
