The current annual MP salary is £98,599. How much would you like to bet that changes are made to this just in time for their next payrise, which will put them over the £100k mark.

There is no way of knowing how often Parliament votes against what the public actually wants. Until now. houseofthepeople.com tracks every bill going through Parliament. You vote. We compare it to how your MP voted. The gap speaks for itself.

Imagine if you Tories had not privatised our oil and gas sector, which created BP. Great Britain would be in the same position as Norway with a sovereign wealth of over $2 Trillion. But you did, and you sold off all the leases. Truss shut down all onshore/offshore gas storage.

No idea why these guys don’t like clean air, energy security and a future for the next generations…and…

80k of benefits from the tax payer, and his salary is 100k.

"We will work tirelessly to protect the profits of oil giants."

@TiceRichard @reformparty_uk Richard Tice wants to stop 800MW of clean power that would heat 180,000 homes. Oxford University analysis shows renewables cut bills by up to £441 a year. Maximum North Sea extraction cuts them by £16-£82. Reform is funded by oil and gas donors. The maths isn't a coincidence.

It's one thing to say older devices don't support some new feature or service or operating system. But to make the deliberate choice to brick a device that's working perfectly well, in order to force your customer to buy a new one, is a hostile act of predatory capitalism.

Inflation works one way and one way only. Prices go up and they stay up. These people's greed will never be satisfied and they will never miss a chance to price gouge.

Nepo Babies: The Movie

When Trump pussies out tonight, his message will go something like this: "I am pleased to announce that Iran has agreed to save the lives of its great and wonderful people and make a deal! Therefore, I am postponing the Total and Complete Devastation of their bridges and nuclear powerplants for one week. There is still a chance for Iran to become a respected country, the likes of which the world has never seen, if they do the right thing. We have already won this war, Totally and Completely. Do the right thing! Thank you for your attention to this matter!" What do you think? Did I miss anything? 😏

MAN LOSES EVERYTHING FOR TELLING THE TRUTH. HSBC LOSES NOTHING FOR FRAUD. Nicholas Wilson spotted something wrong in 2003. Simple enough: @HSBC's subsidiary HFC Bank was quietly adding a 16.4% "debt collection charge" to the accounts of people already struggling to pay off store cards at John Lewis, Currys, B&Q, Dixons and PC World. Illegal. Straightforward. He said so. His boss started calling him "Mr Ethical." Not a compliment. He reported it. Got sacked. Reported it again. Got ignored. Regulators sat on it for years. @TheFCA own Complaints Commissioner eventually said it was the worst case of regulatory failure he'd ever dealt with. The FCA responded by appointing someone from John Lewis and someone from HSBC to its board. You genuinely cannot make this up. After 13 years, HSBC quietly agreed to compensate customers. The official figure: 6,700 people. Wilson says the real number is closer to 500,000. He estimates the fraud totalled over £1 billion. HSBC has paid out around £200 million so far, with some victims receiving over £10,000. No fines. No prosecutions. Nobody went to jail. Wilson, meanwhile, has been unemployable ever since. Blacklisted. Living on benefits. Nearly lost his home. The bank that defrauded half a million people kept its licence. The man who exposed it lost everything. Source: @guardian | nicholaswilson_com

Okay so Nate Silver clearly hit a nerve

The NYT published a link to critical original reporting on Iran 45 minutes ago. A good, fair story. They have 53m followers. The engagement metrics you display say they got 94 likes and 33 retweets out of that. Is that accurate? And if so, shouldn't you work on a better algo?

@Breaking911 Why did it not stop before driving into the smoke?

When did it become perfectly OK to be openly racist in the UK?

I can’t do this anymore Costco has increased their water to £6.49 a pack???????? the same water I bought for £3.50 in Jan?
