My wish is for a brave government to announce a 2% tax on wealthy over 10 million with immediate effect and an exit tax of 10%. They then make a big deal of patriotic Brits making sacrifices for the benefit of the country, in the way millions of struggling people have had to do for years!

Our response to Andy Burnham's Labour Party Conference speech 💬 #TaxTheSuperRich
We welcome the Prime Minister's vision to bring hope back to our country and communities.
And we repeat our longstanding message: we're ready to play our part by paying our fair share, so Britain gets the investment it needs to make that vision a reality. 
This country helped to build our success. So millionaires like us must be taxed more. It's our turn to step up first and help build a better future for everyone.

A new YouGov poll commissioned by Best for Britain found that restoring EU membership is the most popular option for the UK’s relationship with Europe in 628 of GB’s 632 constituencies. The polling suggests that full membership itself is becoming a mainstream preference across the country.

The response when progressive policies that help millions of people are proposed... "How will you pay for it?" The response when the richest 1% ask for tax cuts, or banks ask for bailouts, or defense contractors ask for more contracts... "How much do you need?" It doesn't have to be this way.

Support for rejoining the EU hits 61%! 📈 Today's Sunderland Echo 📰 letter highlights that all but 4 GB constituencies now back rejoining. With a Westminster Hall debate on Oct 12, PM Andy Burnham must drop his red lines. Write to your local MP today! ✍️ #Sunderland #RejoinEU #Brexit #UKPolitics

A scanned clipping of a published letter to the editor in the Sunderland Echo on Friday, September 25, 2026, headlined "Support grows to rejion the EU" (including the typo in "rejoin").
The letter states that support for rejoining the EU is at its highest level in a decade. It cites polling expert Sir John Curtice telling The Independent that 61 per cent would vote to rejoin in a new referendum. It notes MPs will hold a parliamentary debate on rejoining on October 12.
The text criticizes Prime Minister Andy Burnham for keeping predecessor Sir Keir Starmer's 'red lines' that block single market access, a customs union, or rejoining. This is despite a YouGov/Best for Britain poll showing all but four constituencies across Great Britain support rejoining over alternatives. The breakdown shows 35% for rejoin, 18% for a closer relationship, 6% for the single market, 5% for a customs union, and just 11% for further loosening ties.
It argues international reality is driving this rethink, with an aggressive Putin and unpredictable Trump making outdated red lines a hazard to national security. Four in 10 Brexit backers and a quarter of Reform UK voters now want stronger defence ties with European neighbours.
The letter concludes that politicians remain paralysed by a vote held 10 years ago and urges voters to write to their MPs demanding they attend the October 12 Westminster Hall debate. A large pull-quote emphasizes that constituents have had a rethink since the vote a decade ago.

Thank you for this, @privateeyenews.bsky.social Farage needs ridiculing far more. It’s a form of scrutiny he can’t cope with and one he so richly - yes pun intended - deserves.
TV HIGHLIGHTS
72 Up
The award-winning documentary series continues, charting the progress of one posh little boy, Nigel, over the years.
The last time we saw him was over a week ago in 36
Up when he had been given £36 million out of the blue.
In the latest instalment Nigel is given another £36 million, making the total donation a jaw-dropping £72 million.
This is a life changing moment for the former prep school boy who was recorded in the first episode singing the Horst Wessel song and coming up with charming but embarrassing comments about admiring Hitler.
As the clock moves forward
to 72 Up, viewers now see a completely different Nigel from the one we have come to know so well over the years
- from Europe-hating MEP to Brexit-promoting campaigner to the triumphant bin-defeating statesman of today. It's been a roller-coaster ride for Nigel
- and indeed the viewer - and this remarkable series ends with a poignant and moving climax in a Clacton oyster bar, where the older but no wiser Nigel faces the prospect of being Prime Minister and/or going to jail after criminal proceedings.
EYE VERDICT: "Boring, boring, Boring! Nothing to see here
- put a sock in it, love."
