Tice ‘happy to put things right’ after ‘he failed to pay £100k in corporation tax’ Mr Tice said last year Angela Rayner would resign if she had “any moral decency” after admitting to underpaying stamp duty

Richard Tice deputy leader of Reform ran four shell companies which did not pay any tax on profits between 2020 and 2022.

He's now offering to "put things right".

Go on then Richard - resign.

DOJ demanded voter files from all 50 states.

DOJ sued 31 states for refusing their demand.

My law firm intervened to protect voters in those cases.

DOJ is now 0-5.

My firm is 5-0.

Lesson: When we fight we win.

One man put us in this deadly quagmire. One man is wrecking our economy. One man’s immigration agents have terrorized our communities. One man has ridden roughshod over our system of government.

We said "No Kings" 250 years ago. Congress must say "No Kings" today.

If not, they must be replaced.

At pre-election rallies in #Hungary, the crowd began chanting: #Russians — go home! The historic slogan "Ruszkik haza" emerged during the Hungarian Revolution of 1956 and was directed against the #Soviet occupation 👍

No doubt Iran will start charging for passage through the Strait of Hormuz too. Putting them in a far stronger position than before the war.

Congress gave money for global HIV work. The Trump administration isn't spending it U.S. work combatting HIV/AIDS has saved millions of lives globally. Under the Trump administration, funding has been slow in coming and unpredictable, wreaking havoc on people trying to do the work.

“Despite the money being available, people inside and outside the government say the State Department is deliberately withholding some of the funds. As a result, key HIV efforts — that even the Trump administration deemed "lifesaving" — are on the brink of shutting down.“

Reminder that as a corporate lobbyist, Pam Bondi represented scores of clients facing federal regulatory scrutiny — including Amazon, Uber, and GM.

She also represented the government of Qatar and ICE contractor GEO Group.

She was a walking, talking conflict of interest at the DOJ.

Also a great rebuttal to the "net zero is impossible" defeatists. It's very possible, and we've made huge strides there already. And there have been huge benefits to doing so along the way (cleaner air for one)

Ed Miliband to give green light to first major North Sea gasfield project in decade | LBC The energy secretary is expected to approve Jackdaw drilling as the Iran war puts pressure on the government over energy security fears

A huge betrayal.

Won't lower bills. Won't give us more energy security. Won't insulate from price shocks.

And sends a clear message to the world that we are backing new oil and gas drilling.

Pete Hegseth’s broker reportedly tried to make a multimillion-dollar investment in a fund of weapons stocks just weeks before Trump launched his war on Iran.

Remember when even the appearance of corruption was enough to trigger a resignation?

We must not become numb to this.

Ed Davey, "I'm afraid, we shouldn't be rewarding Donald Trump with this state visit"

"Truth is, Trump has insulted our country, insulted our troops, undermined our economy with tariffs, and this illegal war with Iran which is putting up people's petrol prices, energy bills and mortgage costs"

Kids can be subjected to harmful 'conversion therapy,’ U.S. Supreme Court rules It's a stunning setback for LGBTQ+ young people who are put at significant risk for harm by this decision.

SCOTUS stands on the side of harm and torture. Conversation therapy is ineffective and harmful.

‘The tide is turning’, Green party leader tells crowd at march against far right – as it happened Organisers claim half a million people are marching through central London, protesting against the rise of the far right

How can the BBC justify how much coverage they give other marches which are significantly smaller in size?

The bias is so obviously blatant.

Reaching net zero by 2050 ‘cheaper for UK than one fossil fuel crisis’ Climate change committee finds move to renewable energy would also bring health, economic and security benefits

Our dependency on fossil fuels makes us vulnerable. Wars across the world are pushing up prices for households in the UK.

Why keep waiting for the next crisis? We need to transition to clean power as fast as we can to protect people and our economy.

I’m Keir for you: The PM is visiting a community center in London to discuss the impact. Expect a pooled interview with broadcasters mid-morning. There’s one quote on rising bills in his words trailed overnight that warrants chasing up: “I will always be guided by what is best for the British public. And no matter the headwinds, supporting working people and their families with the cost of living is always top of my mind.”

I mean, this just isn't true, is it? If Starmer was focused on the cost of living crisis he wouldn't insist on no customs union and no single market? Nor would he embrace the negative economic consequences of his anti-migrant policy?

Like everything else about Starmer, this is empty rhetoric.

Great quick read from Robert Reich. The one thing we must all do, is that after tRump is gone, we have to get rid of every sycophant that enabled him. That is every MAGA Congressperson and staff member from every department. They all must go
