In the Budget HMRC will be granted powers to seize money directly from the bank accounts of people who fail to pay their taxes. Does this include people like Nadhim Zahawi, Lord Bamford and all the other massive tax avoiders. Or is it just for the little people as usual?

In the last 50 years, pensions have been cut, benefits have been cut, wages have been cut, free milk at school cut, Free University cut, University grants cut, Social Housing cut, Unemployment benefit cut. Everything has been cut and each time it is cut something else needs to be cut. But always Billionaires take more and never get taxed. Cut billionaires, CUT THEM HARD.

Palantir should not have a seat in the house of Lords. Tom Watson shouldn't be allowed to work for Palantir and be a Lord he should be fired ASAP.

I have never seen such a blatant double standard in my life. In 2018, when 12 young Thai football players and their coach were trapped in a cave in Thailand, the world did not say, “They are not our citizens.” Britain sent some of its best cave divers. Australia sent doctors and rescue experts. The United States sent more than 40 military personnel and equipment. Countries came together and worked with the Thai authorities to get those children out. And they did as clear in the video below. They saved all 13 of them. Tonight, in Gaza, people woke up to the screams and cries of children, women, and elderly people after a six-story building known as the “Al-Saada” building collapsed. Nearly 100 people were sheltering inside. Dozens of tents surrounded the building. Many of those trapped under the rubble are children. They are still under the rubble. So where are the international rescue teams? Why aren't neighboring Arab countries sending rescue teams? Why aren't Western countries sending specialized teams to save whoever can still be saved? My heart aches for my people in Gaza :(

Dear @Ofcom Please can you clarify to the nation why this is allowed under your current broadcasting rules? A sitting MP [sometimes] on a TV channel he part owns, delivering a party political broadcast on behalf of Reform UK? Seriously ... WTF?
Nigel Farage exposes how Labour and the Tories hand out government contracts to their donors. Under Reform UK, contracts will benefit the taxpayer - not our donors.

Tesco could pay every worker an extra £10,000 and still make a profit. British Gas could pay every worker an extra £35,000 and still make a profit. Shell could pay every worker an extra £300,000 and still make a profit. It's the billionaires who are ripping you off.

This breaks you're bloody heart this does....poor little soul.....😭😭😭
I'm sorry, little slow loris. It's not your fault. I know you're absolutely terrified, but corporate greed and the endless demand for cheap palm oil are destroying everything you know. Seeing you forced onto power lines to escape the Kalimantan wildfires is what profit over life looks like.

Why can Far Right racist thugs get away with terrorising the RNLI but other people get arrested for holding signs against Genocide because they are 'terrorists'. Sort it out and get the real terrorist locked up.

Imagine having £36,000,000 to give away and choosing a fascist political party rather than a worthy charity .
Ben Dalia just donated £36,000,000 to Reform UK. Politics is for sale.

I’ll be posting this video every time anyone from Reform UK claims they care about the safety of women and girls. This is exactly what happened at the Reform conference, and it’s here as a record.

This is exactly right. It is not AI or climate change that is going to kill us, but billionaires, big corporations and the politicians in their pockets, refusing to address the problems they have created, and trying to carry on with business as usual.
Replying to @ClimateDad77
Exactly. This needs to be rephrased... "Big Tech billionaires might kill everyone." Sam Altman etc. talk about it like their not even tied to it. "Yep, there's a chance AI could end humanity as we know it." Nope. You could! You could end humanity!

My statement on Israel's decision to ban me and 10 other British MPs from entry. "I have visited all parts of Palestine on several occasions, where I have witnessed the horrors of occupation, as well as the resilience and humanity of the Palestinian people. They are the ones who suffer from Israel's apartheid. It is their freedom which is egregiously curtailed, alongside thousands of Palestinian refugees who are denied the right of return. As the world wakes up to the genocide in Gaza, it is shocking that Israel continues to deny entry to UN investigators and international journalists. Israel doesn't want the world to see what it is doing - but we can never give up in our attempts to expose the truth. That is the real scandal. Israel’s genocide cannot go unpunished - and I will keep speaking up for peace, freedom and justice for the Palestinian people."

Old enough to remember Just Stop Oil activists being raided at their homes, arrested & jailed for Talking about blocking traffic.
Kent Police say there were no arrests at this morning’s Dover anti-Immigration protest that caused chaos in the town.
