Reform just held what they called the "biggest rally in modern political history" - 15,000 seats and many of them empty. Bernie just did 30k - not only is it nowhere near the biggest rally in modern political history - it got well pranked by LbD...:)

Labour MP Clive Efford responds to the Government's benefits cuts announcement by urging ministers to make the "moral case" for taxing wealth. "Whilst we make a moral case for changes to the benefit system, shouldn't we also be making a case for how we tax wealth as opposed to income," he says.

Such staggering fatalism and lack of ambition. And to know it’s been bought and paid for, is the most revolting thing of all. JUST when we got to a place of consensus, these populists popped out to say “don’t worry about floods and fires, just carry on as you were”.
