As well as being a great photo it serves as a suitable metaphor for the state of LCCC at the moment.

The dirty secret is that rich people need to live in politically stable regimes in order to keep their wealth. They will piss and moan about taxes, but they will not flee en masse. They like paved roads and not being kidnapped too much.

?? You think the Man City financial misdemeanours are comparable to paedophilia? Really??

I think Bernhardt was the guy comparing the City misdemeanours to paedophilia earlier. A complete and total loss of perspective. But then we are seeing quite a lot of that.

Brexit is forever tainted with disinformation, foreign interference, murky vested interests, ugly prejudice, unforgivable costs and now deep unpopularity. If you really cared about our country and wanted to fix its problems, you’d admit this… Good that Burnham is finally doing so…

We are seeing a complete and total loss of perspective from many people regarding the Man City affair. I have now seen some people comparing them to Saville, Gary Glitter and other paedophiles. I mean come on.

Of course they are the same thing. No Man City investment means no Manchester investment. There cannot be one without the other. What he needs to call out is the absurdity of the premier league. Oh, and declare his meetings with Ratcliffe et al concerning the upcoming Old Trafford development.

Dear tv and radio producers. Thankyou for the invitation. But, no, I do not want to appear on your show to defend the idea that I am English, after 50 years of living and working here, because the increasingly feral right want to turn this into a "debate" and you cannot see how you're being played

With Trump’s latest betrayal of Ukraine, MAGA Republicans who continue to defend Trump when he licks Putin’s balls can all go fuck themselves. Trump is a feckless, pathetic traitor — and he has the blood of innocent Ukrainian children on his hands.

The United States is now officially allied with Vladimir Putin and Russia. We will fund Russia’s genocidal war machine in exchange for Putin helping Trump and the Republican Party in the midterms. One of the most shameful and disgusting days in the history of this Republic.

It's particularly obnoxious that he should characterise getting Palantir out of UK state activity as 'mob rule'. It's precisely to ensure that we can operate as a sovereign democracy that we need to keep companies like that away from anything important.

Palantir is owned by fascists with strong links to a geopolitical adversary - the US - that is funding far right activity in the UK. It already has dangerous leverage over critical UK state functions. Tom Watson is a piece of shit who has ruined what reputation he had.

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.
