Everyone: We should tax the banks. Banks: This would be a disaster! Also banks: We are all making so much money it wouldn't even materially affect us.

I'd have more respect for racists if they just said "I am a racist." All this dancing around "they won't integrate" and "legitimate concerns" is mealy-mouthed bollocks. Just grow a spine. Have the courage of you fucking awful convictions, and stop assuming we're all as stupid as you are.

It is deeply irresponsible for any politician, let alone a senior Conservative, to peddle the same far-right nonsense about Luton that we see from the likes of Yaxley Lennon and Reform.

It is incredibly telling, to me at least, how Cameron and May were more progressive on trans rights, and yet even those areas of recognition are being rolled back/completely destroyed by Labour, yet trans and non-binary individuals are ignored, talked over, and told to shut up and support Labour.

When I first discovered, in 2021, that Man City had signed a deal with a crypto fraud, what surprised me - other than that they'd been so gullible and unprofessional - was how quickly they washed their hands of the deal. It was a matter of just a few days. theuglygame.wordpress.com/2022/06/02/e...

Burnham says he will implement Labour’s 2024 manifesto. This is what the manifesto says about the pensions Triple Lock.

Our system of state, private, and workplace pensions provide the basis for security in retirement. Labour will retain the triple lock for the state pension. We will also adopt reforms to workplace pensions to deliver better outcomes for UK savers and pensioners. Our pensions review will consider what further steps are needed to improve security in retirement, as well as to increase productive investment in the UK economy.
