@DesmondSwayne There are plenty of other places to look to save money. Benefit Street, Foreign Aid, etc. This year pensioners got around £500 rise, whist 650 of you useless cunts got £3300.

If, like me, you were born in 1956, you’ll receive almost £300,000 more in benefits than you’ll pay in taxes in your lifetime
State Pensions make up a huge chunk of that
Long term, we simply can’t afford to sustain the Triple Lock’s generosity

@RachelReevesMP Last week your policies lost the country a £31 billion deal. We have the highest energy costs in the west, all because you lot are fucking useless.

For too long, our country has been exposed to global shocks - and households and businesses have paid the price.
We will learn the lessons of the past, and build a Britain that is stronger and more resilient.

Starmer declines to join USA's Hormuz blockade with the Royal Navy.

“We continue to support freedom of navigation and the opening of the Strait of Hormuz, which is urgently needed to support the global economy and the cost of living back home.
The Strait of Hormuz must not be subject to tolling.
We are urgently working with France and other partners to put together a wide coalition to protect freedom of navigation.”

@RupertLowe10 @Lucie_Fur99 Well done on getting your degree on the road to becoming a mentally ill fuckwit.

@Lucie_Fur99 You describe yourself as a 'Trans-Inclusive Feminist', so I'm going to go ahead and ignore your opinion.

Fucking magic. How the fuck are professionals who have a responsibility to keep people safe (medical professionals, social workers, police etc) supposed to work with non-English speakers? Rupert Lowe is a cunt.

Perhaps the UK should charge a toll of £1m per ship passing through the English Channel? That would generate £288bn per year.

We certainly don’t know if additional tax paid by Mr Tice and his offshore trust made up for his company’s failure to pay tax.
Where’s the evidence?
Richard Tice MP 🇬🇧@TiceRichard
Desperate still to smear me & Reform, Sunday Times has again spent weeks pouring over my company accounts with Labour-supporting tax accountant All that effort has revealed overall HMRC received the correct amount of tax due Journo now effectively complaining I paid too much tax rather than company pay some tax on my behalf! All due to complex tax technicality around dividends to certain shareholder classes in REITs But S Times refuses to investigate serious accounting irregularities & possible multi million pound electoral law breaches by Labour Party Properties Ltd, that I exposed Meanwhile, I’ll get on with representing the people of Boston &Skegness & campaigning to kick out this dreadful government
English
@Gabriel_Pogrund Pointless newspaper cunt making accusations he admits he can't justify.
English
Tice says our story relates to a “technicality” and HMRC “overall” received tax it should have
In fact it relates to his firm breaking law by failing to pay tax it, not anyone else, owed
We can’t know how much he/his trust later paid - hence why law exists as it does x.com/ticerichard/st…
Gabriel Pogrund@Gabriel_Pogrund
Exclusive: Richard Tice’s company broke the law by failing to pay tens of thousands of pounds in tax on dividends that were paid to him and his offshore trust. He received at least £91,000 in excess payments as a result of the failure. thetimes.com/uk/politics/ar…

@YvetteCooperMP Maybe you should be looking at getting the Iranians over here to shut the Channel. That would end the daily clusterfuck of illegal migrants you have no fucking idea how to control.

In my Mansion House speech, I made clear: the Strait of Hormuz must be fully reopened, without restrictions or tolls.
The blocking of this vital waterway is hitting trade around the world and prices here at home.
Freedom of navigation means navigation must be free.

The war on Iran has laid bare our overreliance on fossil fuels, but North Sea drilling is not the answer – clean energy is.
Drilling in the North Sea won’t make energy cheaper, despite what Badenoch or Farage say, because the price of gas is set by international markets.
Expanding our clean energy supplies, on the other hand, would reduce our dependence on expensive fossil fuels and therefore lower bills.
A Labour government must hold firm on our climate commitments and double down on renewables.

Nobody has a “RIGHT” to a state pension.
It is a benefit paid for by the tax payers at the time you receive the benefit and it is subject to the same checks, balances and affordability criteria as every other benefit provided by the state.
Whoever told you national insurance was invested in a personal pension pot for you, lied. It’s a tax, like income tax, VAT et al.
Neil Clark@NeilClark66
These very nasty attacks on the state pension are unrelenting, particularly from this former Tory MP and @GBNEWS presenter. These people want it either scrapped altogether or only available to the very poorest. But all who have made the requisite National Insurance contributions have a RIGHT to a decent state pension. It’s a moral issue too. The elderly deserve a decent life in their remaining years. Indeed, looking after the elderly properly is the hallmark of a humane and civilised society. The anti-state pension activists are truly despicable.

@annaroseridgway The ones that have been lied to are the likes of you and your generation and you have taken it all in like a sponge. Who/ what the fuck are students for liberty? Go and get a real job, in the real world.

Britain likes to think of itself as compassionate. Fine. Then let’s protect poor pensioners, not hand universal handouts to rich ones. Multi-millionaire households don’t need government subsidies. The triple lock is no longer anti-poverty policy; it’s a politically protected transfer to the most powerful voting bloc.
And before you say you have “paid in”. I am sorry but you have been lied to. NI is just a tax like any other, it is not a savings pot with your name on it.
The triple lock is causing the state pension to become unaffordable, and no political party has the balls to honestly admit this to its voters.
