Surely you understand the two things are completely different. Opening an ISA is what Parliament intended. Wriggling through loopholes using offshore trusts is not.

In a healthy democracy we would have journalists doing this kind of thing. But in the days of “Give Nigel a free pass” media MPs have to do it instead. Ps the open financial greed and grift is very much part of the “Trump’s man in London” Farage strategy

GM Mayor Andy Burnham confirms order for new electric buses on visit to Northern Ireland-based manufacturer trib.al/FKKRqkr

@AboutMcr @AndyBurnhamGM This is a brilliant appointment not just because Gavin will be excellent, but also because as a Conservative he’s been appointed with full support from the Lib Dem Council Leader Cllr Mark Roberts and the Labour Mayor of GM @AndyBurnhamGM That’s how it’s done the Manchester way.

Merz: We discussed Russian oil and gas deliveries with the US President in the G7 this week. Six members clearly said this sends the wrong signal. This morning we learned the US government apparently decided otherwise. We think this is wrong — there’s a price issue, not a supply shortage. I’d like to know what other motives are behind this temporary decision.

This would be Witkoff's 9th visit to Moscow. Witkoff has made 0 visits to Kyiv. It's kind of hard to succeed as mediator in #Russia-#Ukraine war if one only wants to talk to one side.

Trump’s little ambassadors. All day long. Standing up for the draft dodger who said our forces avoided the front line. Campaigning on grooming gangs while ignoring the rape claims against Trump. Taking top dollar to slag off the UK at every turn. If that is patriotism I’d love to know what treason looks like.

Delete “humiliated,” insert “sought to humiliate.” 1. The right wing rags will push Farage and Badenoch to echo the Orange Man Boy and think this is a great blow to Starmer. 2. It’s not. It’s not good for the US UK relationship pro team for sure. But it is hopefully liberating for UK to pursue a sensible legal policy, and time to understand under Trump the US not a reliable ally in the way we have generally assumed.

Brilliant initiative and one needed across all regions.

Tomorrow we lift the 9.30am restriction on bus passes, letting older and disabled people travel whenever they want. It was good to thank the GM Older and Disabled People’s Panels for pushing for it. A positive change powered by the people - exactly how politics should work! 🙌🏻

Today @McrLabour passed our budget to make Manchester even better. More cash for support, cost of living, parks, cleaning the streets, cctv to catch flytippers, high streets, free swimming and gym, cash for community groups and much more. The difference Manchester Labour makes
