Covid killed more Americans in less time than WW1 did British soldiers, but there’s a memorial in every British village and this is the first I have seen in America.

Trump keeps the 10-year treasury yield over 4.5% & the 30-year treasury yield over 5%. My guess is that these yields are set to rise substantially, though financial crises often evolve slowly. No developed economy is ruled by such incompetence as the US. www.bloomberg.com/markets/rate...

Really disappointing from Angela Rayner, to suggest that putting families in less poverty isn't a good enough reason because it doesn't eradicate all of their poverty 🤷‍♂️ "When I was growing up, my parents had three children, we had child benefit, it didn't alleviate the poverty that we were in"

If you will only lift children out of poverty if there's a political benefit in it for you, you don't care about child poverty, you only care about your own political career. It makes you a narcissist and a sociopath. www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

Another quote from the MAHA Report that should set off alarm bells all over the U.S.: “Unlike other pharmaceutical products, vaccines are unique in that all 50 states enforce some form of vaccine mandate for public school enrollment”. This is because they PROTECT CHILDREN FROM CONTAGIOUS DISEASE.

Look at those numbers! Labour have super-alienated Reform and Tory voters. But they've also managed to alienate Green, LibDem and Labour voters. That takes a very particular kind of talent.

Nick Watt, "Keir Starmer faced some pretty difficult questions from his own MPs on that 'island of strangers speech' last week" Rightly so. Labour should be ashamed that they've aped the language of Nigel Farage and Enoch Powell instead of standing up to them
