@SeddSezz I agree, the sooner a few MP’s and ministers are imprisoned, the sooner we will have a government that is accountable for its actions.

We wasted £10billion on PPE during Covid. Faulty PPE, no less. We spent another £20billion on the NHS app which people used for a week at the most. This level of waste is heinous and obscene. Everyone responsible for handing out these contracts and making these decisions should be in prison.

@ItsJamesHall Tax and wages not keeping up with cost of living. You can’t pay more and more for tax and goods and not feel poorer

If you earn over £72k, you're in the top 10% of UK full-time earners. Yet for many it still doesn't feel like enough. So…is it an income problem, a spending problem, or a tax problem?

@Rugby_Scoop Don’t paint us all with the same brush my friend. Nobody asking you to support Boks but we aren’t all the same and every nation has its idiots.

Everyday, Saffas remind me why I’d never support the Springboks. These comments are ridiculous. 😂😂 Imagine being so entitled to come after someone celebrating one of his own?

@silver_away1 @PhilipProudfoot That’s your opinion, plenty of engagement and I’m open to the opinion of others. Sometimes I learn new things, even at my age!

@gavinmoolman @PhilipProudfoot That ignorant post didn’t go too well for you..

What I don't get about climate change deniers is why they're opposed the green transition. Say they're right and its a hoax. We still end up with a high-tech industrial revolution, more trees in urban centres, cooling systems, public transport, more EVs! Why is that bad?

@Loucrusader77 @PhilipProudfoot Actually, I just don’t want tax funding markets or prices skewed by government intervention.

@gavinmoolman @PhilipProudfoot Just trying to understand the principle here - is it that you want an even playing field, and subsidies suggest favoritism by the government for certain sectors?

@XH_Lee23 And instead of trees, we build unproven carbon capture machines. Reminds me of the story of NASA spending millions to develop a pen that worked in space. The Russians solved the same problem with a 10p pencil!

While the world burns billions on war, China plants trees in deserts. This is what humanity should invest more in, trees, not bombs.

@Jacksonsrule Is it really their job to do that? They create the jobs, the government is supposed to create an environment for growth and assuming all the other apparatus works, like education and the safety nets then there shouldn’t be any poverty

You don't find it weird that not a single billionaire wants to end world poverty? Doesn't it strike you as bizarre that no one with that kind of wealth wants to be the hero who actually solves the world's biggest problems when they literally could? lsn't that suspicious?

@alonso_hoyt @WillKingston Why wouldn’t they become a citizen?

@WillKingston Nope. Somebody who has indefinite/settled status who’s paid tax for 20 or 30 years absolutely should.

If you’re not a citizen of the UK, you shouldn’t be entitled to a penny from the government. I say this as a foreign resident: contribute to the economy and integrate, or bugger off. The ‘benefit’ is being allowed in to a great country, not a cheque from taxpayers.

@kidwhizz2 @WillKingston Become a citizen first, that should be the route.

@WillKingston If you're a foreign resident in this country paying UK Taxes and NI why shouldnt you be able to claim your pension when you retire?

@KathrynPorter26 @neso_energy Recently watched Chernobyl again. It was scary stuff, disaster largely due to cheap/faulty design and the people in charge not being transparent and not sharing vital information. Slightly ironic that modern day Britain is mirroring old Soviet practices.

Today @neso_energy has published this blog about the events of w/c 22 June, no doubt in response to the questions about 23 June It's more of the old nothing to see here nonsense On 23 June the system was outside the "safe operational limit" for extended periods and this was resolved only when "Emergency Assistance" was instructed on the interconnectors to France and the Netherlands The names "safe operational limit" and "Emergency Assistance" are relevant here. They indicate there IS something to see here Craig Dyke claims "no customer demand was disconnected". This is not true. EA on the interconnectors means you cut off interconnector demand ie you're cutting the demand of other countries Industry contacts tell me this has not gone down well in these other countries who think we should use our own reserves before cutting them off Blaming "adverse interconnector flows" is pathetic. Interconnectors flow both ways. Is NESO seriously saying it assumes they will always import to us?? Instead of half truths why not explain... 1. Why was the frequency so low for so long? 2. Was there any reserve left? 3. Why did they cut interconnectors before doing voltage reduction? 4. Why was there no EMN or Notice of High Risk of Demand Control issued that day? 5. Were any transmission constraints violated? 6. Would the grid have been secure if NSL or Viking, the largest infeeds, had tripped? These are simple questions. Let's have some candid answers @Ed_Miliband @ClaireCoutinho @AndrewBowie_MP @griffitha @NJ_Timothy @TiceRichard @DavidGHFrost @mattwridley @cmackinlay @Iromg @AllisonPearson @MerrynSW @EdConwaySky @mattotele @jonathan_leake @afneil @ofgem @energygovuk neso.energy/news/managemen…

@skumWgmi My shares have lost value this last month, can I get compensation? This idea is like taxing people on what they have in the bank, even though the money going in was already taxed on payday!

You can't tax rich people on unrealized gains from stocks because "it's not real money until it's sold." So explain to me why my property taxes keep going up based on the unrealized value of my house? I didn't sell it, didn't cash out and didn't even make a profit. But somehow I'm paying taxes on paper gains every single year. Interesting how "unrealized gains" only become a problem when wealthy folks are involved.

@Running_Flyhalf He has a very bright future ahead.

Gotta love Zach Porten. Young man has game. Stepping up in a big way. Scrums, carries. And close to the line, VERY hard to stop.

@jaredwright17 Crazy to think that for years we were always lean at fly half and now we have this conveyor belt producing one after the other!

Sacha, Ahmed and Moyo. Boy the Springboks' 10 jersey debate is going to be fun post 2027.

@PaulEmbery We aren’t wealthy and we are looking at our options, current direction of travel isn’t great. If it gets any worse then looking elsewhere could be an option if you have a little capital and a skill or two. We have family who moved to Slovenia a few years ago. That’s an option.

Holding the country to ransom.

@miestfy @PhilipProudfoot I’ve been quite clear, I’m against all subsidies being thrown!

@gavinmoolman @PhilipProudfoot As if big oil doesn’t?! Massive taxpayer assistance & funding given

@JESaoradh @PhilipProudfoot I’ve already said that I don’t agree with any subsidies, I can’t be any clearer.

@gavinmoolman @PhilipProudfoot We subsidize dirty and polluting industries to the tune of Hundreds of Billions a year. They already have the infrastructure, and we subsidize them anyway. You don't seem to notice that though, only the PR guy telling you about some Solar or Windmill subsidies.

@patcondell So true, doesn’t matter what rosette they wear, once an MP, they desert the voters and carry on with the globalist agenda.

Can we stop pretending we have a democracy in Britain? Every few years we go into a booth to perform our little ritual. Then we get the opposite of what we vote for. Every single time. Every person in the House of Commons, with very few exceptions, is an imposter and a fraud.

@ZackPolanski The UK has done more and continues to do more yet surprise, surprise, no halting the climate. I think we all know trying to alter the course of the climate is folly. Recently read that life will end in 1.8 billion years, ironically, as we will run out of CO2.

These deaths are on the hands of politicians who failed to act over years. Putting profit over our safety refusing to take action - now failing to protect us from its impact. We need maximum working temperatures. Insulated homes. Cooling in schools, hospitals and care homes.

@andyw8924 @Jenny_1884 Except that their own voter base will one day grow older, but I assume they are expecting to be on full scale benefits right to the end!

@Jenny_1884 For governments, Labour ones in particular, pensioners are an easy target. By definition they are older, so have previously seen the disastrous effects of socialism. As such, pensioners are not really their voter base, so they couldn't give a stuff.

So apparently Andy Burnham is likely to scrap the Triple Lock for pensioners because it’s becoming unaffordable but this Government can find plenty of money for illegal migrants who rock up on our shores who have paid NOTHING into our economy. This government puts foreigners before their own people. How this is even legal beggars belief. If they can find the money to house illegals then they can find the money to pay pensioners the paltry amount they receive.

@Jenny_1884 It is their money to do with as they please. I’m more interested to see who they will actually pay all this money to.

Has anyone ever heard such nonsense? The Church of England have said they have to give away £100million in “slavery reparations” because it is a moral imperative as a Christian investor to do so. This is absolutely outrageous
