Exclusive from @MaxKendix
Rachel Reeves is expected to limit an energy bill bailout to people on benefits after warning that giving support to every household because of the Iran war would be irresponsible and unaffordable
The Times has been told that the planned support will be directed instead at about six million people who claim benefits such as universal credit and pension credit
While Reeves has asked about a potential “income threshold” to support lower-earning households, officials have said they are unlikely to be able to develop the system in time. Treasury sources emphasised that several options were being looked at but that no decisions had been taken
Officials have identified several barriers, including the fact that HM Revenue & Customs records the income of individuals, while an energy bailout would have to focus on households. A project to link up the information started in January and was due to take more than a year
Reeves will therefore have little choice but to give support to people claiming benefits, using the warm home discount, which reduces electricity bills for poorer households by £150, as the model for the scheme
“The methods of targeting are imperfect,” one government source said. But another said there was “a lot of defeatism” about what systems could realistically be introduced in time.

Every day before the Commons sits MPs pray in the chamber. Today it’s at 2.30pm. Someone let @NJ_Timothy know so he doesn’t cr*p himself. I know he has a fear of people praying.

@JustReliq @IpswichTown I'm sure they're really upset about some ugly self-spunk-fest flaggulating twat.

Following Monday’s visit by the Reform party and its leader, Nigel Farage, the club would like to issue the following statement:
Ipswich Town Football Club has, over several years, hosted representatives from a range of political parties. The club remains apolitical and does not support or endorse any individual or party.
The club will continue to engage with representatives from across the political spectrum as part of its role within the community.
Ipswich Town is proud to be an inclusive, diverse, and welcoming organisation that supports all members of the local and wider community. This commitment remains unchanged.

@thelefttake @IpswichTown Shut up wet cunt. The irony is clearly lost on you.

@IpswichTown A normal club would simply decline to host fascists, you degenerates.

@OhCrappy @Telegraph Boss of massive energy company wants to pressure the government to do a thing that would boost his company's profits. Big shocker.
Do you take everyone at their word and only have a surface level understanding of their intentions?

The head of British Gas has called on the Government to drop its ban on exploiting untapped oil and gas fields in the North Sea, saying the move would help ease spiralling energy costs ⤵️

@Kaetror @Telegraph Random knows more than boss of massive energy company. Okay bud 👌
English

@Telegraph No it won't.
We sell our gas on the open market, which means we buy it back at whatever price it's at.
The solution to our energy cost is to sever the link between gas prices and electricity cost per kWh. Energy prices would tumble without the artificial inflation caused by gas

Listen, let’s put the party political stuff to one side. Everyone should be concerned about the Iran–US/Israel situation right now. I fully support the Iranian people in their struggle against the mullahs, and that doesn’t change.
What is dawning on me, though, is that Trump may have gone into this without a coherent plan or military strategy. I’m hearing some genuinely alarming things, and I’m properly spooked. This is coming from people I trust, people who are far SMARTER than me.

-Get stopped for illegal car
-Make death threat to (very patient) police man
-Complain that its not fair because "Tony Blair wasn't arrested for war crimes"
-It's is just possible this country has some integration problems we need to address

A man with illegally tinted windows is stopped by police. The tint can be peeled off & asks the police to do it. They threaten to seize his car & replies "I'll seize your life". "I belong to my God, I don't belong to your system." Highly integrated, diversity is our strength.
