I really hated this moment
BREAKING 🚨 James Acaster has been banished from #TheCelebrityTraitors after outing himself as a Traitor at the roundtable!
Personally in selecting leaders we should focus on ability and belief - but if diversity is a goal, this is not it
I’m proud to have the most talented, hardest-working cabinet in Virginia’s history. They are also the most diverse cabinet Virginia has ever seen.
Every single one of our cabinet secretaries were selected because they’re the best of the best in their respective fields. They also bring invaluable perspectives from across the Commonwealth — from Danville, Hampton Roads, Richmond, NOVA, and more.
I’m grateful to get to work with these incredibly dedicated, hard-working, and talented cabinet officials to serve the Commonwealth of Virginia.

This is crazy. If you have been on the mimimum wage since April 2020 you've had a 50% payrise in just 6 years. Meanwhile a skilled worker would be no where near these levels of pay increases.
There is no point in showing any ambition, get training, studying , promotions.
Plaid is only choosing not to spend the money elsewhere — the UK government gave them money proportionately for the £100 payment in England and they’re announcing they didn’t take it to waste elsewhere
BREAKING NEWS: £100 payment to every household in council tax bands A-D across Wales ✅
As energy bills rise, Plaid Cymru is acting to help families with the cost of living 💚
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The £100 payment for Welsh households follows UK Chancellor John Healey's Budget announcement of the policy for England, with equivalent funding provided to Wales via the Barnett formula; the Plaid Cymru-led Welsh government is passing it on.

How long can we keep increasing minimum wages above the rate of average wage growth? We need a moratorium of minimum wage increases until average wages are sufficiently higher
Constantly paying off people’s energy bills is not sustainable — especially at the cost of our vital industries — we should be investing in lowering bills at the source.
🚨 BREAKING: John Healey has announced the tax surcharge on bank profits will rise from 3% to 6% for 15 months
"This will be time limited to pay for immediate support for energy bills"

Did you know?
Heathrow's third runway could add over 100,000 jobs across the UK.
At least 50,000 locally, plus 5,000 apprenticeships for young people.
BUT it only happens if it gets built.
TODAY, Heathrow's public consultation OPENS. And opponents will be filling it in.
Here's how you can help:
Respond to the consultation. Tell them you SUPPORT expansion and want it built FASTER.
Opens: TODAY
The DEADLINE is the 22nd of December
First proposed in 2003. Earliest opening: 2039.
We can't afford to wait any longer.

Amazing, so instead of choosing any other beautiful building in London that suited, they wanted an overly modern, glass, open plan office. Perfect encapsulation of Starmer
