Labour is guided by the interests of Britain and the British people. And we are clear: those interests require close partnership with our allies.

It's so offensive how he tries to piggyback on gay rights by talking about 'coming out'. You're a straight cross-dresser, Eddie, you've not come out of anything. Do us all a favour and come out of the women's toilets.

Dear Editor As a baptised English Christian I could forgive King Charles for not broadcasting an Easter message to his subjects if he habitually kept a still tongue in his head concerning all other religious events. For those who know the differences between Islam and the Christian faith, his behaviour suggests to me only the following alternatives: 1. Charles is ignorant concerning Islam and Islamic teachings concerning Christianity; 2. Charles is a Muslim; 3. Charles is doing what he is told by a political leader who is reliant on the Muslim vote. There is nothing to be proud of in any of the above. I think his mother  would be turning in her grave.

@nicholadrummond You were doing so well until you went into full on remoaner mode. The UK economy has benefitted from Brexit not least by the trade deals we have done that would have been totally impossible whilst trapoed in yhe EU.

You and David Cameron share much of the blame for the sorry state of Britain’s armed forces today. You cut the defence budget by a third. You delayed renewal by a decade. And the question posed in your tweet shows that you had no idea what you were doing. Worse still, the money you thought you were saving was a drop in the ocean compared to the billions the Conservatives Party was later forced to spend to offset Covid. Your political legacy is a country unable to deter or counter the threats it now faces. This is what you will be remembered for, as well as for almost losing Scotland, and for the Brexit vote, which has undoubtedly given us a worse deal than the one we had before, including making it more difficult and expensive to buy military hardware from our European neighbours.

How does Britain actually fight a war? Who selects the targets? Where does the intel come from? Does the PM sit above it all or do they get involved in the detail of operations? Find out from those who were inside the room during the Libya conflict @polcurrency

@jonburkeUK They pay huge amounts of tax and support thousands of well paid jobs The oil and gas sector produces products that are vital for modern life. Not just in energy where we overwhelmingly still rely on hydrocarbons but technology, agriculture and medicine

Fixing broken economies is tough – but necessary and, ultimately, unavoidable. There will always be groups of grant-seeking, approval-hunting economists who object. Just like the 108 who attacked Milei, there were famously 364 economists who wrote to The Times in March 1981, objecting to Margaret Thatcher’s plans to rescue the UK from economic penury by reining in government spending. They, too, were proved wrong by Britain’s subsequent recovery. 🧵7/7 telegraph.co.uk/business/2026/…

Trump moves heaven and earth to rescue one downed American pilot. Starmer moves heaven and earth to prosecute British veterans. That is all you need to know about our Prime Minister.

@GeoffreyLean @fionaharvey The UK is only responsible for 0.8% of global emissions. Does @fionaharvey think that means we shouldn't bother with net zero? Because it's essentially the same argument

Tom Gallagher NEW book Portugal & Western Turmoil
Ian Acheson: 'After the Southport murders, where three young girls were stabbed to death at a Taylor Swift‑themed dance class, I attended a reflective conference of professionals and NGOs convened to discuss what had gone wrong. The language in the room was all about trauma, safeguarding and unmet capacity. At one point, a speaker referred to the killer, Axel Rudakubana, as “a child with needs”. The three dead girls were hardly mentioned. In that moment, I realised I was hearing the same old story, just told in a different accent: a system that instinctively circles the wagons, centres perpetrators and processes, puts reputation management before ethics and quietly edges victims, harm and accountability off the stage. The state and its agents have been reacting to lethal risk failures in this way for years.' telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/04/0…

One of the most economic principles to get into your head: The government has no money of its own. It can only take money by force (taxing), take money from the unborn (borrowing), or make money out of thin air (printing).
Documenting Saylor@saylordocs

Milton Friedman: “The government doesn’t have any money. Only people have money. The government only gets money by putting its hand in your pocket and taking it out.”

Tu viens de résumer la théorie de la valeur-travail de Marx. Je vais t’expliquer pourquoi elle a été réfutée il y a 130 ans, sans méchanceté. L’idée que la valeur vient du travail a un problème fondamental. Si je passe 400 heures à construire une chaise moche que personne veut acheter, elle vaut pas plus qu’une chaise construite en 2 heures que tout le monde s’arrache. La valeur ne vient pas du temps passé. Elle vient de ce que quelqu’un est prêt à payer. C’est la révolution marginaliste de 1871 (Menger, Jevons, Walras), confirmée par Böhm-Bawerk en 1896 qui a formellement démoli la théorie valeur-travail. C’est pas un débat ouvert. C’est réglé depuis plus d’un siècle dans la littérature économique. Maintenant “le propriétaire extorque la plus-value”. Extorquer implique une contrainte. Or un contrat de travail est volontaire. Personne te force à signer. Tu peux partir demain. Tu peux monter ta propre boîte. Tu peux devenir freelance. Et surtout, le propriétaire ne “prend” rien. Il prend un risque. Il avance le capital. Il paie les salaires AVANT que le produit soit vendu. Si la boîte fait faillite, le salarié touche son chômage. Le propriétaire perd tout. Ses économies, son temps, parfois sa maison. La “plus-value” que tu décris, c’est la rémunération de ce risque. Sans quelqu’un pour avancer le capital et organiser la production, le travailleur produit rien du tout. Demande à n’importe quel freelance : le plus dur c’est pas de faire le travail, c’est de trouver le client et de structurer l’offre. Dernier point. Si le travail seul produisait la richesse, les pays avec le plus de travailleurs seraient les plus riches. L’Inde et le Bangladesh auraient un PIB par habitant supérieur à la Suisse. C’est évidemment pas le cas. Ce qui fait la différence c’est le capital, l’innovation, l’organisation, et les institutions. Je te dis ça sans animosité. La théorie valeur-travail est séduisante parce qu’elle est simple et qu’elle a un héros (le travailleur) et un méchant (le patron). Mais la réalité économique est plus nuancée que ça.

@BrivaelFr Ce qui produit de la richesse c'est le travail. Quand il est privé il est juste plus cher vu que un propriétaire extorque de la plus value.

“Victory to Iran!” Cheers for the regime's terrorists in Yemen and Lebanon. "Wipe Israel off the map!" Curses for the “parasites” of the City of London. "Epstein class!" Ranjeet Brar raging outside the US embassy yesterday. He is an NHS consultant at King’s College Hospital.
