@JewishNewsUK @DavidPintoD I have friends children with SEND needs being told there are no state school places. You knew schools would close, so what now for parents? Forced home schooling? It’s a disgrace.

Today @rachelreeves knocked it out of the park. By contrast, @MelJStride had a bit of a ‘mare. The facts: growth forecasts up for next 2 years. Inflation & borrowing down. People set to be £1,000 pa better off. Our plan is working, Mel. Next time, listen before you speak

@BarryBlackNE Why is it common sense for parents who pay for state school places and don’t take them up, adding £8k/ child to the state funding and then pay 20% extra for school fees, introduced mid school year. How is that reasonable?

@srcoooer2024 @kelvmackenzie You have Gordon Brown to thank for that, in scrapping Advance Corporation Tax relief he single handedly scuppered final salary pensions. Got little attention at the time, personally I’m still angry!

@kelvmackenzie The issue is not how good public sector pensions are, but how we've let private company pensions diminish. My Grandfather, when he retired in the early 70's after working 40 years for Chubb retired with an index linked, final salary pension. Why dont we get these pensions today?

Kelvin MacKenzie@kelvmackenzie·
Thanks to analysis by the Times I am horrified to learn public sector workers receive £11 for every £1 they pay in while private sector employees receive just £5.35 for every one of their £s. Official figures show the taxpayer ( you and me ) will fork out £57billion to fund these state worker pensions. Unjustifiable. Somebody at some stage will have to double what these state workers pay in. It won’t be Labour as they are in hock to the public sector unions. Will it be Reform? I’d like to think so.

@RosieHeys @DrJessTaylor Agree and all about conveniencing them and their needs first “I don’t have the money” etc, a potentially controlling red flag

@DrJessTaylor This is a huge red flag "I know what I'm about to suggest is wrong, and likely worrying, even frightening, for you, but I'm going to chance it..." is a genuinely chilling date suggestion. How about cutting the crap, and saying 'get in the van'

Meet somewhere free or low cost for a first date in a public place for safety. Low money should not mean it has to be in a house - or ‘Netflix and chill’ either. Plenty of things you can do to genuinely get to know each other without having to be in a stranger’s house. Similarly, I don’t know why dating became so expensive. The whole ‘dinner and drinks’ thing. Surely there are other activities a new couple can do whilst they chat and get to know each other? Also - as far as I’m concerned - first dates should always be split 50:50. Can’t stand the whole ‘men should pay’ thing.

@LBC @rcolvile @BenKentish I live in Barnet because of the proximity to Greenbelt land. We’ve had years of super intensive building, with none of the infrastructure promised delivered. I’m pro-growth- trees and grass thank you.

'It was one of the most pathetic things I've seen in years.' @BenKentish attended a Barnet Council meeting about a proposed new football stadium on greenbelt land. His verdict? 'Stop self-important NIMBYs vetoing everything this country needs.'

@BarnetCouncil Well….you could start by closing down the crack house that Councillors and Police know about and do nothing, metres from a primary school and my sisters’ house. So they don’t have addicts breaking into their hall or car weekly. Zero action: for a year.

@BarnetLabour Is anyone looking at the systemic problems of sky high bills in the first place, we are paying so much more than the rest of Europe. Our bills shouldn’t need to be subsidised 🤦‍♀️

I get the feeling that some MPs haven't scrutinised the #AssistedDying bill& are voting for this because they feel that Kim Leadbeater is a good egg, which undoubtedly she is. But this is NOT voting 4 your favourite act at Eurovision, this is seismic law change at breakneck speed

@MartinSLewis Yes! My daughter, 7yrs, counsels me against excess spending “Mamma, do we really need more plants”…hard to argue with really. She always wins Monopoly so I think she’s got a good head for money!

Labour is raising a glass to the wartime generation. On the 80th anniversary of VE Day, we’ll keep pubs open for longer, to mark this momentous occasion and honour the legacy of all those who served.

Just a reminder that Musk’s companies have received over $15 billion from the US government — he’s happy to go after USAID but not the agencies that have been feeding him.

I’m sorry but if you word a question to imply that Private schools are exempted from VAT of course people would object. The fact is education is zero rated for VAT. A logical extension of this policy would be to levy VAT on University fees. #EducationTax
