Reform dragged into tax row by Richard Tice’s unpaid £100,000 The party’s deputy leader says he will ‘pay what is owed if numbers need rechecking’ after more revelations from The Sunday Times

@gabrielpogrund.bsky.social:

‘Exclusive: Richard Tice failed to pay £100k in tax, benefiting his investment firm — which then gave big sums to Reform

Tice gave contradictory reasons for why four shell companies paid zero tax. @DanNeidle says they flouted "basic" rule, face HMRC probe’

Boris Johnson was blocked from accessing state secrets as foreign secretary because Downing Street believed he was a security risk Theresa May allegedly tried to restrict Boris Johnson's access to secret intelligence when he was foreign secretary.

Seems to be a different level of vetting for MPs (no idea why it should be).

Modern high yield crops on which we depend only produce that yield with several rounds of fertiliser application. A big proportion of that fertiliser can’t get out of the Middle East now. Millions of people are going to starve as a result of Bibi & Trump’s war.

This👇🏼. AOC is the only one stating it clearly and plainly. Do I have any faith that the American people will ever elect a woman president someday? No. I hope I’m proven wrong.

3/3. It’s hard for Trump to end a war when Putin is making so much money from it.

2/3. The biggest example of profiteering is of course the person Trump openly adores — Putin, from oil prices and the lifting of sanctions.

Traders placed over $1bn in perfectly timed bets on the Iran war. What is going on? Suspicious wagers on the US-Israel war in Iran are creating huge windfalls and raising concerns among lawmakers

1/3. And this is one more reason the war goes on in some form — people close to Trump are making money from it.

Thinking Live with Phillips O'Brien on War in Iran and Ukraine A recording from my conversation with Phillips O'Brien

What does the Iran war have to do with sustaining the Russian economy? Lifting sanctions for Russians does nothing for Americans. It just makes it easier for Russia to continue its war in Ukraine. I spoke with @phillipspobrien.bsky.social about Iran and Russia.

AOC is calling for a federal freeze on new AI data centers. No more billionaire "free-riding" at the expense of your electric bill and your water. 📉

Reform would review all asylum claims from the last five years The current Labour government has already announced major crackdowns on immigration, including disrupting gangs.

when there's an enormous backlog of asylum claims, re-litigating all the previous 5 years seems like a really stupid way of slowing things down further.

Quite apart from fact that most 'illegal' arrivals are from most repressive countries and have zero 'legal' routes!

The post reads: “This is what I told Reuters today: The UAE no longer needs America to defend it, as it has proven during the Iranian aggression that it is capable of defending itself with distinction. What the UAE needs is to acquire only the best and latest weapons that America has. Therefore, it is time to think about closing the American bases, as they are a burden and not a strategic asset.” The post is labeled “Translated from Arabic by Grok” and shows a timestamp of 10:21 AM · 4/19/26 with 139K views.

NEW: UAE scholar Abdulkhaleq Abdulla says the UAE no longer needs U.S. protection, calling American bases a “burden, not a strategic asset” and suggesting they should be closed. The United States’ standing in the region has been obliterated.
