For the retired people in the comments claiming "I paid more than my fair share". Actually, most of you didn't. You're being subsidised by me, my peers, and the children we won't be able to have.

Reform supporting Boomers after their triple lock is secured, sitting on houses they bought for £24k now worth £950k, final salary pensions, free uni, cheap energy, no cost of living crisis, no major war, no AI threats Meanwhile their grandson: – paying £1.5k rent for a mouldy box room – facing the highest inflation in 50 years – energy bills that look like phone numbers – petrol prices flirting with “sell a kidney” territory – competing with AI for entry-level jobs – told to “just save harder” while avocado toast costs £6

Boomer pensioners have taken £1.20 out of the welfare state for ever £1 they've paid in.

Since Trump was elected Sergey Brin became $89 billion richer. Under a 5% wealth tax, he’d pay $11.5 billion more in taxes, 3 million people in California wouldn’t lose health care & Brin would still be $77.5 billion richer than he was on November 5, 2024. 3 words: Tax the rich

One in four pensioners is a millionaire.

@bbcquestiontime Is he the first convicted criminal to feature on BBCQT?

“People should be able to… enjoy a pint of beer, take their kids to the football, but they can’t” Businessman and TV personality Tom Skinner says people have “no money” despite working “every hour”, and Labour are “smacking” businesses when they need “more support” #bbcqt

Tesco can fuck off with their little tokens to vote for which local good cause will be funded. You made several billions of profit last year, just give all three the money you bastards.

CEO OF OREO: “I would advise that everyone eat 50 Oreos a day. Maybe even 100.”

Tesco are making £4bn a year in profit. About 50% of their staff are on Universal Credit. Why don't we crackdown on this unneeded benefit for billionaires?

This is sad. I know as a politician these companies are going to spend a billion dollars against me for saying it but 🤷🏽‍♀️ Pervasive gambling is not good for society. It turns life into a casino, traps people in addiction & debt, surges domestic violence, and fosters manipulation.

@EricLDaugh You’re a bellend

🚨 BREAKING: President Trump just ENDED UK PM Keir Starmer's whole career in the Oval Office *Turns around*: "I'm DISAPPOINTED. You see that man right there? Know who that is? The late, great WINSTON CHURCHILL." "Unfortunately, Keir Starmer is NOT Winston Churchill." 🔥🔥

@AdamCrafton_ Isn’t that the point of these documentaries, to force you into asking these questions of the people you know who do support it?

That Louis Theroux documentary: v watchable and jolting but a bit too much ‘look at the dangerous weirdos’ and not enough ‘why are there so many dangerous weirdos and what’s the path out of the dangerous weirdos’ imo.

@NinaDSchick Let’s have it right, it’s not their current leaders. It’s the Tory governments that privatised and sold everything off

The UK is utterly f*** on energy, and its leaders are to blame. This vulnerability was a choice. 1/ Britain and Norway were dealt the same hand when they struck oil in the North Sea. The UK treated its reserves as a fleeting windfall to be consumed. Oslo leveraged them for long-term security and prosperity: a “sliding doors” moment for British sovereignty. 2/ Despite the basin’s maturity, Norway never stopped drilling, averaging forty-five exploration wells annually. In 2025, Norwegian production surged to its highest level since 2009 — the lucrative result of a record $24.68 billion investment that returned roughly $90 billion in exports. Today, the sector serves as the bedrock for 20% of Norway’s GDP and sustains 200,000 people. 3/ Norway runs 98 percent of its domestic grid on renewables, capitalizing on the geographic windfall of hydroelectric power. But Oslo paired this with a rational calculation on its sovereignty: decarbonize at home while extracting maximum value from its resources to endow its future. 3/ Norway’s sovereign wealth fund is now worth over $2.2 trillion — the biggest in the world. Propelled by heavy exposure to US tech and AI, it posted historic returns of 15% last year. Every Norwegian has roughly $385,000 invested in their name; every British citizen carries roughly $55,000 in national debt. 4/ The payoff for Oslo is as much geopolitical as it is financial. When the invasion of Ukraine shattered European gas supplies, Norway stepped into the breach. It now provides 30% of the Continent’s gas imports. Britain is a captive customer, sourcing 76% of its gas from Norway — up from 58% just two years ago. 5/ Britain still has its own reserves. The collapse of British exploration is a policy-driven crisis, not a geological one. By suffocating North Sea producers with a 78% effective tax rate via the Energy Profits Levy, Britain rendered long-term capital investment impossible.

@Ankaman616 Sergio Romero

Idle question for the #MUFC hivemind. In your opinion, what sort of traits are important for a backup goalkeeper at Manchester United?

My mate sent me a picture of the Ibrox trouble yesterday but he didn’t tell me he took it off his TV and I thought Rangers had installed a chandelier in the away end

@WayneSBarton It’s honestly the most bizarre way to have framed him scoring that number of goals

@elonmusk So are you

Yes

@AndyMitten Had planned Brentford for 6th game this season from Scotland. No chance I can take my son out of school to go there. Memberships become a waste of money when club don’t advocate for fans to get to games

More Monday night football for MUFC. Both April home league games switched. Zero - absolutely zero - consideration given to what match going fans think or want.

@TRobinsonNewEra Like you did you racist cunt

You could always fuck of somewhere else then

@elonmusk Pay yours

Grok can help with your taxes
