Let me get this straight:
> China buys oil from Russia
> India buys oil from Russia
> Germany buys gas from Russia
Yet core NATO allies - Canada and the UK - are actively deepening economic ties with China, while the EU has just concluded a landmark "mother of all deals" free trade agreement with India, slashing tariffs and opening markets on a massive scale.
These same nations demand unwavering American commitment to Article 5 against Russian aggression and billions in military aid while loudly accusing Trump of "demolishing the global order."
All the while, their own economic choices continue to sustain the Russian war machine through its largest customers. The moral posturing about defending Ukraine and upholding the rules-based order rings hollow as their actions so glaringly contradict their words.
The whole thing is a charade.

@Ravisutanjani Make it a official way to connect to government services, pay bills, find tenders, etc...

@Priyaa_Purohit Congress thinks Modi is the PM of the world, no concept of inflation and that commodity prices are not controlled by a single countryb

@mohitlaws Anyone that complains about having to pay Rs 300/month for Internet should learn to use the Internet and see its still the cheapest Internet in the world. Jio is for profit company it is not a government handout
English

Jio and airtel have silently dropped their basic 1GB/day 4G data plans. Now, their basic 4G data plan costs around ₹300 a month.
They've also deliberately slowed down 4G internet speeds just for pushing people to switch to 5G and pay even more.
So poor people have only two choices, either pay ₹300/month for 4G speeds that feel like 3G now, or recharge with even more expensive 5G internet plans.
Even if someone in rural India does not use the internet much, they still have to pay ₹300/month just to make basic calls.
If you don't recharge, you lose incoming calls and messages within a week, and if it continues for a few months, your SIM is deactivated & your mobile number is sold to someone else.
It's alarming considering that 60% of Indians earn less than ₹10,000/month. The Modi government has handed the telecom market to just two companies, giving them unchecked power to decide how much Indians must pay for basic connectivity.

@BGatesIsaPyscho There is "Share Code" system already from home office which is used to check right to work and rent. Absolutely not necessary

@robprogressive If 100 Friends Paid the Restaurant Bill Like UK Taxes
The bill comes to £1000.
45 friends don’t pay anything. Top 10 pay £690
The richest guy pays £290. What happens when the rich guy doesn't turn up? Everyone else pays more
English

The top 1% earners pay 29% of the tax of the TOTAL taxes
Yet 44.7% of the U.K population do not contribute any income tax
The top 10% pay 69% of the total tax revenue
£150,000 earner pays £53,460 in income tax but a £25,000 earner pays £2,486
So no, we should NOT tax the rich more. They are ALREADY taxed more
No wonder all the millionaires are leaving the U.K

@Vivek_Investor India has the cheapest mobile data in the world, even with current prices... this idea that the government should put its finger in everything should go! Very dangerous for the country!
English

Yesterday I asked our gardener how much he pays for a recharge. He said ₹199/- Airtel pack. I told him that the minimum price will be higher from next month.
He said, A few years ago, with a ₹40-50/- recharge, I could easily manage for months. Why doesn't the government help people like us?
People like him don't use any data but forcefully pay for things they don't use, there are millions of people like him, but who'll listen to them? They are not on social media to raise their voice like the rich and powerful dog lovers.

@RupertLowe10 Please explain? All of the smart Brits are looking at how to escape to places like Singapore, Dubai and USA legally so they can thrive instead of being stuck in Britainstan.

@RupertLowe10 You forgot to mention how all those government employees get gold plated pensions while most working in private sector and small business owners worry about their pension.

Starting and running a business in 2025 Britain - let’s walk through it.
You’ve got a good idea, managed to save a few quid to invest and want to give it a go. Let’s say it’s a cafe.
Generate wealth, create jobs and contribute to your local economy. Great idea. You just picked the wrong country to do it in.
Registering the damn thing is complicated enough, and that’s the easy bit. Next up is the bank account? You’re treated like a criminal and it takes week - opening a cafe, not a terrorist cell.
You manage to find a premise, good location. Oh, it costs a fortune. Rent through the roof and you’re forced to pay thousands to the council. For what? The filthy high street? The rapid customer service? Hmm. Yet another rip off. Inspections are a nightmare, it’s never-ending bureaucracy from people who have never created anything in their lives.
But somehow you get it off the ground and things go well. You need to expand, hire someone.
Ouch. PAYE, national insurance, pensions, HR policies, health and safety risk assessments. One wrong step and you’re facing an employment tribunal. Is it even worth the risk?
It’s becoming more and more expensive, and risky, to hire people? Why bother?
Maybe you try and get independent contracted help. Ah. IR35 puts a stop to that. We wouldn’t want any flexibility now, would we? That would make too much sense.
Your accountants already cost an absolute fortune. They’re bleeding you dry just so you comply with the layers and layers of regulations.
But let’s say it’s gone well, and your hard work is paying off. Turnover hits £90k. The dreaded VAT threshold.
That means if you essentially then have to start charging VAT. That means everything gets 20% more expensive for your customers. Or you are forced to absorb the costs. Or you deliberately make less money to stay below the threshold. Just brilliant.
Maybe you want to keep the cafe open later? Serve some alcohol? Have some music on?
More licences. More costs. More inspections. More bureaucracy. Why bother?
Waste collection even costs a fortune. Remind me, why are you already paying the council? You try and ring the council, you’re on hold for 30 minutes. Brilliant. Customers are waiting. You finally speak to someone. They’re rude, and haven’t got a clue what they’re doing. They promise they’ll get back to you, but they only work four days a week and on Thursday they’re working from home. No answer, you have to chase and chase and chase.
Incompetence reigns.
Right. We’ve got through all of that, now you want to pay yourself? Not unreasonable is it? For working 16 hour days to get the business off the ground?
Corporation tax slices your profit down. Maybe there’s some left. Dividend allowance has been cut, so there’s less to take there. Tax rates are up too. Hmm. Okay, well let’s take a small salary and some dividends. Maybe you’ve got student debt too which takes a large chunk?
It is brutal.
Even making money costs money. It costs to deposit, it costs to accept card payments.
No holiday, no protection, no respect. All risk, and you’re treated like dirt by the Government.
You look at it all and just think, why bother? Why not work for the public sector as some irrelevant bureaucrat obstructing everyone else? Get 60k, 35 days holiday and you can literally never be sacked. What’s the point? Why take the risk? Just do that instead.
We desperately need to back British enterprise. Reward those who take all of the risk. And actually, support local businesses where we all can.
We should be slashing corporation tax, doubling the VAT threshold, increasing personal allowances, abolishing business rates for high street small firms, reducing national insurance contributions, cutting tax on salary/dividends, brutalising red tape and PLENTY more.
If you do these things, you will generate MORE tax revenue. It is really not a complicated principle. Does Reeves understand that? No. The woman is clueless. Absolutely clueless. She does NOT understand what she is forcing on business owners. Let’s see if she can run our cafe for a week. Absolutely NO chance.
I’m with the men and women who build businesses, create wealth, and generate opportunities.
They have my full respect. The politicians running our country certainly do not.
My message to our cafe owner? Keep plugging away, it will get better.
Please know that at least one MP is fighting for you in Westminster.

@kelvmackenzie The BBC has been infiltrated by the same people who are part of the rape gangs... it will come out one day

@protestfinboss We don't call Hitler a European, even though it's accurate. Have the courage to call them Pakistani

@ThatAlexWoman They will be paying IHS (Immigration Health Surcharge), which is
£1,035 per year for most adult visa applicants
£776 per year for students and those under 18
So doesn't make sense for them to pay NI on top
English

I love India. I used to live in India. I want to trade with India.
But what should have been a massive 'win' has been marred by the fact that NI exemption for Indian workers, when British employees see the same tax hiked, means it will be far cheaper to hire foreign staff than provide jobs to our own
And that is just plain wrong. In fact, it's a disgrace.

@RupertLowe10 @Lord_Talbot64 Unfortunately police has been used weaponised to protect the rape gangs, squash free speech and target innocent people like yourself time and again... it's time to really look at who controls the police?
English

@Lord_Talbot64 And reporting it to the police the day after I raised reasonable questions about the Reform leadership.
I don't think that police time should be weaponised in this political manner.
