A pleasure and an honour to welcome @ZelenskyyUa back to London today - and to recognise the strength and determination of his leadership.
We stand with him and we stand with Ukraine.🇺🇦 🇬🇧

@TerraOrBust We would need far more data centres to do that, which requires cheap energy. It is never going to happen, we will just fall further and further behind. It's the kids I feel sorry for.

For the UK to be the best place in the world for quantum and AI companies to start, it *HAS* to be outside of the EU.
Ask quite literally *any* company working in quantum or AI.
Rachel here is bragging about Brexit freedoms, hours before giving a speech about more EU alignment.

This government will make the UK the best place in the world for quantum and AI companies to start, scale and stay. In a changing world, our economic plan is the right one. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

You’re not well. Go lie down in a dark room. If you really think Brexit has cost 8% GDP I have a bridge to sell you. But I won’t. It would be taking advantage of the afflicted.

@afneil AN, oblivious to Brexit = £100 billion loss in trade & 8% drop in gdp Brexit was a Westminster colonialst driven agenda for unfettered power to rob the country, promoted by the colonialist media. They’re still trying to justify the destruction.

@TerraOrBust @b_judah There are a lot of people who give all that up, just to rejoin. It's a cult.

"with all associated duties"
No cherry picking. The UK would be welcomed with open arms if it accepted all the rules, which would mean accepting the Euro, Schengen, Migration Pact, no vetoes, no rebate, etc etc
A complete non-starter
You did notice that didn't you @b_judah
Ben Judah@b_judah
This is actually a very important intervention from the French Foreign Minster. That the UK would be welcomed back into the Single Market with “open arms.” A strange myth exists in Westminster France would want to veto a game changer reset like this. Just not true at all.

@dave43law Have you ever voluntarily paid more tax than you needed to?

@LBC @RobertJenrick So… we already have laws, unless the govt scraps the 183-day rule (which would be chaos & see nobody paying tax), returnees pay UK tax if they stay that long. Seems straightforward.

@GBPolitcs Basically, what they are saying is you will never get a state pension, even though you played by all the rules, paid all your dues, worked all your life, took nothing, and were prudent in planning your retirement based on known rules.
English
🚨NEW: The state pension age could be raised to 75 due to UK's birth rate decline

But is that any reason to resign? No laws have been broken. When it comes to any politician, they’re all pretty much unethical people… I mean, when compared to taking WFA away from pensioners, knowing people would die, and reducing your tax bill within the law, there is no real comparison.
English
Just to be clear, tax dodging is the common term for tax avoidance (legal but unethical) as opposed to tax evasion (illegal and unethical).
Avoiding tax is not a good look from someone who wants to run our country.
Using rare and complex methods unavailable to normal people - takes away this lame attempt to re frame the issue as not paying more than you need to.
Dale Vince@DaleVince
.@TiceRichard makes a desperate attempt here to ‘clear himself’ - by trying to gaslight us all. Not unlike Reform at all..:) He claims, falsely, that this article and the media more generally are saying we should all pay as much tax as possible, more than we are legally required to - nobody says that. He specifically refers to income tax, but this story is about corporation tax, for his group of companies that operate ‘rare and complex arrangements’ and from a tax haven - this is a million miles away from being told he should pay more income tax than the rules say - as he desperately tries to claim. Do we want ’tax dodgers’ running Britain? theguardian.com/uk-news/2026/m…

You do realise this will not work. If you want to defeat Reform, you will have to prove that you have changed, through policy and reasoned debate. Unfortunately, you can’t be trusted in government. Every time I hear Farage speak, it sounds like common sense, even though I don’t even like him.

That’s the problem.
For Nigel it is a trip, a one-off to Clacton.

@Femi_sorry Have you ever voluntarily paid more tax than you need to?
English
@PolitlcsUK @PolitlcsGlobal Of course we will fund it. I thought we had no money. The left and right should be united by now on how this government and previous governments waste our money, instead of point-scoring against someone like Tice who works within their rules.
