At a time when we need serious objective journalism we are either being fed endless trivia or pro rw populism. There is nothing giving us the news or any degree of hope.

Just remember the words in the press stating Angela Rayner “has admitted under paying stamp duty” ( how does one do this? - oh sorry HMRC but I’m only sending you a part payment of the stamp duty)- is something she is saying because the press has forced it out.
-
Your second example is not an outrage at all as words are important. However being incarcerated for saying Palestine is bonkers.
-
Those saying Rayner’s misdoings are nowhere near as bad as the last govt are missing the point. It only adds to the narratives they’re all the same. Poor from Labour and they have been since taking office. Freebies incl tickets are so bad.
-
So now we have not just the Tory policies of the last govt we also have the behaviour. Rayner admits to not paying stamp duty on £800k house - how is this done I wonder? Also what would stamp duty on £800k pay for? Appalling
-
I can’t be the only one who says that austerity leads to no growth can I. Surely others among you recognise this. At present the policies of the last Tory govt are being repeated by this one, supported by “Blue Lab” and Maurice Glasman with their nods to Reform’s racist policies.

Kinda like Liam circa 1996

At heart Farage’s Reform and the Tories together with the monarchy are anti state. They despise everything it stands for including taxation. Tax is the thing they abhor so they do everything to undermine it and not pay it. It is why since 1945 they have fought tooth and nail against govts.
-
Nothing is going right for this govt on borrowing, inflation or growth so change the narrative. We have had similar figures for the whole of the last govt including a double dip recession. Austerity does not work. Start spending to produce growth but most of all make most people better off.

So here in southern England we have lost over 3 hrs of light since mid June. 1.5hrs in the morning and same in evening. Thats a lot of light lost. And another month will be worse. Why we don’t put clocks back at end of Sept I’ve no idea. So we have whole of Oct with dark mornings.
