I think the media is the key. He’s been hounded by them from the start and has then made mistakes which have played into their hands.

The real question is why BBC journalists insist on hounding government representatives, looking for a soundbite. They should’ve been asking serious questions.

Bet365 CEO Denise Coates paid herself £277,000,000 this year, and £410,000,000 in 2020. This was more than 20,000x the Minimum Wage that she paid most of her workers. The betting industry needs to be taxed, heavily.

Michelle Mone is such a moron, she says we do not have the money. Then admits that her, her husband and their children do in fact have all the money. Time to take it all back.

Until 1979 when Margaret Thatcher took over, Water, Energy, Rail and Mail were some of the cheapest and best run services in the entire world. Then suddenly she said we can't afford them because she wanted to privatise them and they began to fail. What a strange coincidence.

Trump seems to have missed the point where the US is a mediator between Russia and Ukraine. He still thinks it’s his deal to make.

If you haven’t already please listen to the interview Gordon Brown gave to the Today Programme on BBC Radio 4 this morning He absolutely wiped the floor with Amol Rajan on child poverty in the UK atm—No spin, just pure moral clarity and data so sharp and harrowing it should’ve come with a warning

Gordon Brown calls for gambling tax to cut child poverty
Anti-poverty campaigners say axing the two-child benefit cap is the "single most effective" step.

22% pay rise (which they agreed to) followed by an above inflation offer this year - wish I’d been ‘failed’ like that!

Iain Mitchell @twoeyesmitchell.bsky.social · 28/07/2025
Not sure giving them a 22% pay award last year followed by an above inflation one this year qualifies as treating them appallingly.

Consultants were supportive of previous strikes, but these feel futile. The goodwill has gone and we fear for patient safety

It would say a lot if an illegal food delivery job in England is more attractive than a visa eligible one in Scotland.
