UK ‘an outlier in Europe’ for letting Farage and other politicians present TV shows. GB News, owned by hedge fund manager, is the propaganda arm of Reform/Farage. Politicians must be scrutinized, and not allowed to present news or current affairs programmes.

Private equity has hollowed-out high streets. Famous names, jobs, supply chains destroyed. Aided by the state: PE gets tax relief on interest payments. No tax on dividends paid to owners holed up in tax havens. No inquiry into serial bankruptcies. It is gangster capitalism. archive.ph/zisBU

When I stood for election, I promised to work with the Labour govt on areas we agree, and push them to be bolder when they don't go far enough. So far I've had to do a lot of the latter! But this Social Care plan looks good to me, I welcome it. Ellie makes some sensible points, though 👇

@nedboulting.bsky.social @adamtranter.bsky.social and I were in the same room for the latest Streets Ahead episode - and it was a delight to record. We hope you enjoy listening! And a big thanks to The Running Channel for hosting us

Boris Johnson’s claims about asking whether Russia interfered in Brexit are misleading. He didn’t ask for any formal assessment and nor did he receive a categorical response. Anyone printing a notorious liar’s disingenuous comments is engaged in deliberate obfuscation.
