Did You Know ? Tesco CEO Ken Murphy’s pay stands at nearly £10m a year = £27,400 a day and doesn’t pay a penny in tax to the UK He earns 430 x the average Tesco employees who pays tax That doesn’t seem fair to me

My Prime Minister didn’t insult her with some tasteless Pearl Harbor joke. Instead he impressed her with his ability to speak Japanese.

Britain has paid Norway over £100 billion for gas since 2021. For gas they’re drilling in the North Sea, the same sea Ed Miliband has banned new drilling in on the British side. Madness.

The UK is considering an American style global tax regime. If you move to zero tax havens like Dubai, you will still be forced to pay British income tax for the privilege of holding a UK passport and getting embassy protection. The tax loopholes might finally close.

@EricTrump You fucking idiot. At Pearl Harbour, Japan was an enemy. Now it is a friend. You treat enemies and friends differently. Don’t you?

🤣🤣 One of the great responses to a reporter in history! JAPANESE REPORTER: Why didn't you tell Japan before the Iran war? PRESIDENT TRUMP: "Why didn't you tell ME about PEARL HARBOR?!" "You believe in surprise much more-so than US!"

@Asm1944 @steve220459 An XC Train Manager told me “they” changed the rule from a member of staff in each portion (so Train Manager in 1, buffet car staff in the other) to a Train Manager in each one Hence shortage of staff, packed 4 coaches and the other locked and empty being dragged around

I have made it a personal rule not to criticise the railway on this means. They have a hard enough job as it is. But for Pete’s sake, who at the DfT imposed 4 car units on Cross Country Trains? Still, great camaraderie in my corridor connection amongst my fellow sufferers 😁

@DevonJ58 @CatHobbs I doubt it - I haven’t seen Labour coming forward with any electrification projects since renationalisation In fact they’ve just cancelled MML!

Huge missed opportunity that these new trains will not be owned by ScotRail They are being leased by Beacon Rail which is owned by JP Morgan Asset Management Rolling stock is the most profitable bit of the railway Scotland should own its own trains! bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

@Leonard73714140 Hey America, when you INVADED Afghanistan and Iraq in the early 2000s you invoked Article 5, becoming the only nation in NATO history to do so. We lost 400 soldiers in a war that was just as shambolically planned as this one only to be told we did fuck all precisely 1 month prior

@BillHud53119972 @CatHobbs They certainly made every £1 count. If they had been showered with the £bns that have gone into the railway since privatisation, I wonder what sort of railway we would now have? Certainly one with more electrified lines

@Gmcswineyyy @TomBluderson3rd @afneil And? The Americans demanded payment in advance, we shipped gold over there They also demanded our technology was sent over there too. Totally mercenary Churchill wrote in his memoirs that when he heard the Japanese had attacked Pearl Harbour he slept well that night

You have a weak and tendentious grasp of history. We were never a few months away from ‘being a German colony’ after the Battle of Britain (which did not involve America). Churchill made clear his endgame from the start: Total Victory. Germany declared War in USA. That’s what brought USA into the European theatre of war. FDR agreed with Churchill’s endgame.
M🌪@22blanco22

People harping on end game make me boil. You guys were few months away from all being a German colony if not for the American. And they’ve kept the peace through the NATO alliance an even having boots on ground in almost every country. Churchill and penning weren’t talking about endgame when they were begging FDR for help and if not for the japanese actions at pearl harbour, Americans won’t be joining the war.

@TomBluderson3rd @afneil They insisted on payment in gold for the materiel they supplied and if Japan hadn’t caught them all asleep in Pearl Harbour they probably wouldn’t have joined us in fighting the Germans But they happily took our Empire reserve funds and technology. Special relationship? My *rse

America provided the high octane fuel used in the Battle of Britain. We also provided a small contingent of pilots. After the UK ran out of money (because of the costs around the Battle of Britain), the US switched to Lend-Lease in order to keep supplying the UK with food, weapons, fuel, etc...

It's a good job Richard Tice wasn't badly advised on the sale of a house before he became an MP, because he'd be in for two weeks of hostile Daily Mail front pages then

@GazTheJourno Perhaps they were advised by Donald Trump? He filed for bankruptcy on several casinos he owned apparently. That’s about the same level of financial incompetence surely?

NCP, one of the country's largest car park companies, has crashed into administration. PWC, the administrator, says "a sale of all or part of the business will be explored as one of the options to secure the best outcome for creditors". Employs 682 people at 340 car parks.
