🇬🇧 Britain doesn't have a 'wealth tax.' And campaigners are demanding one. But it raises an obvious question. Why, then, does the UK raise more revenue from wealth than any other OECD country, including those that have a wealth tax?

@maxtempers I really don't understand this ridiculous argument. I always thought the mantra was "equal pay for equal work". Well, it's not the same work, is it?

The largest supermarket in Britain, that operates on razor-thin margins, is about to be crushed for the crime of paying different jobs different salaries, while our legislature shrugs. How dare they suggest that “so-called market rates” can exist in Soviet Britain.

@owenjonesjourno This is just asinine. No, kicking someone in the head isn't protocol. Of course it isn't. But in the moment, the officers had to subdue the threat. They took the actions they thought were necessary. That should be the end of it.

Hold on - what? If police officers think someone might be carrying explosives, protocol is to kick them in the head repeatedly like this? Is that actual police protocol? If so, how is it a wise police protocol? Can someone explain the reasoning?

This is extraordinary stuff from @BBCNews - thanks to @AlexArmstrong for the edit.

I don’t drink, but I want MPs to drink because it evokes a better time, and perhaps there’s even a causal relationship there. Only caveats are it must be: -men only -spirits only (decanted from special bottle) -afternoon

This is really simple - women don't process words as having meanings "Low-carbon energy" is *good* "Nuclear power" is *bad* Therefore Nuclear power is not low-carbon because bad is not good

@PolitlcsUK @DailyMail So you are telling me that this decision was not made because of a sincere belief that teenagers should be voting, but instead a tactical move to secure more votes? Wow unbelievable.

🚨 NEW: Labour MPs are urging Keir Starmer to shelve his plans to lower the voting age to 16 because it’ll help the Greens One senior MP said “With the way opinion polls are going, it would be total madness to bring this in before 2029” [@DailyMail]

On this day in 1982, Operation Paraquet saw British forces retake South Georgia: “Be pleased to inform Her Majesty that the White Ensign flies alongside the Union Jack.” 🇬🇧

@Kingbingo_ @HistoryBro1 This is now my favourite explanation of photon energy.

@HistoryBro1 You could also think about it as a hot girl in a nightclub. She doesn't have a purse or even pockets, she still gets drinks all night despite having no money. Its just the natural flow of things and couldn't be otherwise.

Soooooo, photons are massless, but carry energy... er... Yeah, no, I don't get it.

@PolitlcsUK I wish I had this level of self-confidence.

🚨 NEW: Keir Starmer says he can win the next general election for Labour "I think we can... it’s likely to be Labour versus Reform. An election where the defining question is, what is it to be British?"

There's winning and then that's Trump winning

The Falkland Islands will always be British. 🇬🇧🇫🇰

🔴 EXCLUSIVE: Attorney General credited Prime Minister with opening floodgates for war crimes claims against British veterans Read how Sir Keir Starmer was a pioneer of “groundbreaking” legal claims that paved the way for the witch hunt against British troops in Iraq, according

@PolitlcsUK And will then undo it 1000x by disincentiving saving at the budget in a tax grab.

@GodLogic_GL His loss would not have hit nearly as hard if it weren't for his constant arrogance during the debate. What a sore loser.

🚨 NEW: No 10 says Keir Starmer will be Prime Minister for years to come “The Prime Minister will continue to lead the Government throughout this Parliament and beyond”

@Kev_OC66 @PolitlcsUK And yet military leaders are still saying there is a £28bn shortfall. Lord Robertson, who the government appointed to do the SDR, is saying the government is dragging their heels on defence. They still haven't published their defence investment plan. Sounds like a struggle to me.

@TCJR135 @PolitlcsUK "Struggling to commit to more defence spending"... literally spent a record amount on Defence & have committed to 2.5% of GDP.

🚨 NEW: No 10 has responded to leaked emails showing the US is considering a review of its stance on the Falkland Islands “We could not be clearer about the UK's position on the Falkland Islands. Its longstanding and unchanged sovereignty rests with the UK and the island's right to self-determination is paramount, and it's been our consistent position and will remain so”
