A six does it www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2025/05... Labour lost to Reform in Runcorn by six votes last night. But there is a much bigger story than that, which is that unless we get electoral reform now, last night made clear that fair elections in much of the UK might be over.

Despite the madness of Trump, the continuing reality of tariffs and an unsurprising fall in US GDP, stock markets have recovered their losses. This makes no sense at all. What is happening? youtu.be/hIyQL98mvh0?...

Labour is handing this country on a silver platter to Reform. People do not vote Labour because they hate immigrants and want Reform-lite. They vote Labour because they want it to make a positive difference to their lives.

The top 1% evade $163 billion in taxes each year. Instead of making them pay it, Trump is going to cut environmental, health research, and education funding to cover it. This is what a corrupt oligarchy looks like.

Friends! We are having Long-Lazy-Sunny-Days. You’ll be pleased to know that Baby Dog and I have been enjoying some time in the Catio with the Kittens. Mum has pulled the soft roof back so the Catio gets some Sun Puddles. I like lying on the shelf in the sun. Baby Dog plays with the Kittens!

The Bank of England is planning to fund teacher training for A-level economics courses. The trouble is that those courses teach a work of fantasy; any sane teacher has rumbled that, and sixth formers don't want to learn something that is a work of fiction. www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2025/05...

(Amanda) I love my cat-flap! I was a bit scared at first but Barbs showed me how to use. It's very clever because it knows me and won't let other cats use it. That's something to do with my 'chip' but I don't understand how that works. Have you got a cat-flap?

Everything Tony Blair has ever said and done is right. He is a superhero. He is the saviour of Mankind. He is the Lord our God. Or so John Rentoul has been telling us for almost 30 years. It turns out you can make a living this way. Journalist? Or courtier?

I had a right old rant about Tony Blair's ignorant, self-interested statement on The Jeremy Vine Show today. I mentioned that he has worked as a lobbyist for PetroSaudi, earning Tony Blair Associates £41,000/month, plus 2% of any deal he brokered. Starts 9 minutes in: www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...
