This is a good article but it really should've focused more on landlords squeezing every penny from people. This man earns £34k a year and needs to earn more just to rent a shared room. Something needs to change and quickly. We can't end homelessness without dealing with landlords.

The youngest person his pager attack killed was 9-year-old Fatima Abdullah, who had just started 4th grade. The pager was on a table when it went off and she picked it up to take to her dad. It exploded in her face and reports said it covered the room in her blood. She wanted to learn English.

The home undergraduate fee was frozen at £9,250 from 2017 to 2025. The Office for Students expected 43% of English institutions to be in deficit in 2025-26. Reducing funding for universities created this vulnerability! Yet higher ed will be punished for this. www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/09...

Like his interactions with Daren Whitaker they show he's easily dazzled and utterly compromised but there's no smoking gun and the sensibles will carry on lapping up his milquetoast pish regardless
He said he was "of course" confident that his own interactions with City's owners when he was mayor would stand up to scrutiny.

The image is of a four panel comic.
The first panel shows Sarah, the protagonist, holding a red ball labeled "A SILLY MEME".
The second panel shows Sarah taking the ball and going through a door labeled "GROUP CHAT".
The third panel shows a group of women sitting together and consoling one woman in the center. The woman in the center is saying "...And that's how it happened. It's been the worst day of my life."
The fourth panel shows Sarah standing in the doorway behind them awkwardly holding the red ball.

Pensions aren't about older people and retired people—they're about everyone. Yes, that's really banal, but we don't talk about it. Removing the triple lock is another slap to Gen X and younger, who won't have the property or private pension provision of earlier gens. Most vulnerable paying, again.👍
