The electorate aren’t goldfish. Our memories are long enough to recall June 2024, when you declared that trans-identified men with penises should be able to use women’s public bathrooms. It took a Supreme Court ruling to force you to uphold women’s rights, and now you pose as our bold champion? Please.
The time for talk has long passed. This government is putting its money where its mouth is when it comes to supporting women and girls. We'll back practical action to confine misogyny to the history books - in public services, workplaces, and online. theguardian.com/society/2026…

BREAKING The OBR suggests that successive increases in the national living wage and the employment rights act will hit jobs It says the employment right act will have a ‘negative economic impact’ and hit businesses through ‘increased uncertainty, lost flexibility and higher Labour related costs’ It says that these will ‘more than offset’ any potential increase in productivity

BREAKING The OBR says the tax raid on landlords - increasing property income tax rates by another 2% - will: 1) Make it less likely that people become landlords, ‘reducing long term rental supply’ and leading to a ‘steady long-term rise in rents’ 2) See landlords simply pass on costs to tenants, increasing rents

EXCL: Civil Service mandarins splashed out £33,000 of taxpayer cash on a staff retreat at a luxury country house. Thirty senior public sector chiefs spent four days at the historic Hartwell House in Buckinghamshire that boasts a swimming pool, spa and tennis courts. But the Cabinet Office tried to insist the public should be grateful the leadership jaunt was not even more expensive! thesun.co.uk/news/40826859/c…

Last month a 14YO boy walked free after stabbing a 14YO girl 10 times in a shop. Last week a 16YO boy was found guilty of attempted murder by stabbing a 15YO girl at school. A 14YO boy goes on trial next month accused of stabbing a 14YO girl to death in Wales. WTF is happening in the UK? 😩
