This deal is a small but encouraging sign that the UK can start undoing some of the damage Brexit has done to our economy and exporters.

A great win, with national implications. At last, councils will have to take into account the cumulative effects of livestock factories on river catchments. It's all about increments of excrement. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Via Politico: "The Scottish government will scrap the two-child benefit limit from March next year, two months before the Holyrood elections. Social Justice Secretary Shirley-Anne Somerville said the move would help keep 20,000 children out of relative poverty."

As much as I despise the tyrannical regime of Ayatollah Khamenei in Iran, who gave Netanyahu the right to run “regime change” operations and decide who should or shouldn’t be in power there in Iran?

I don't give my consent for this and I'd bet the majority of the UK public don't. But even if there was a vote in Parliament our lack of consent won't matter. They'll vote for it with a big majority. I've no idea who the bulk of MPs represent, it's certainly not us.

Undocumented immigrants paid an effective federal income tax rate of 5.27% in 2022. That means they paid a higher effective tax rate than 5 of the richest Americans…and a higher effective tax rate than 55 mega corporations. So let me ask you: who are the real freeloaders?

Excellent piece from @bylinetimes.bsky.social on the fake news of the “exodus” of millionaires. Research re-written to blame Labour for an event that predates Labour and it more likely to be due to Brexit. Nice work @peterstefanovic.bsky.social

Folks if you want to write to BBCITVCh4Sky about the lack of fair coverage across parties, remember Reform got 4m votes atGE & that will be cited as reason for over platforming. So remember to say LD’s have 14x the number of MPs & Greens have 4x what they had plus both have more cllrs than reform

This is great. The Swedish government asked the National Institute of Economic Research to calculate the net economic costs of immigrants... and they came back with the answer that immigrants contribute to the economy, overall, while native-born Swedes are a net cost! #nottheansweryouwerelookingfor

With its latest act of conflict escalation, Israel is quite deliberately trying to prevent any chance of negotiation. Yet even now the UK Government won't acknowledge Israel's government as a threat, but actively trains & resources their military.

Spain is doing well. Booming economy very much aided by immigration Renewables 56% of energy mix, giving Spain some of the cheapest electricity on the continent A measure of how far Spain has come in minds of investors - today its 10-year bonds trade at just 0.6 % point higher yield than Germany

In 2023, Scotland generated 48.7 TWh of electricity from all sources. Of this wind contributed 25.8 TWh and hydro 4.6 TWh. Scotland is a net exporter of electricity, with 15.9 TWh exported in 2023, or 33.8% of its generation. Zonal pricing would mean lower prices for Scots!

"This is continued privatisation by the back door. It undermines Labour’s commitment to a publicly owned railway and keeps the gravy train running for shareholders." @rmtunion.bsky.social's Eddie Dempsey is absolutely spot on. Bring rail fully into public hands. railnews.mobi/news/2025/06...

Anyone know (without looking it up) the chair of the Labour party? How about the chair of the Tories, or Lib Dems? Whose the chair of the SNP or Plaid? They don't get big press introductions covered by all the major networks. So why does Reform's new chair get a whole news cycle?

Gibraltarians are happy. The UK govt is happy. The Spanish govt is happy. The EU is happy. Of course Reform and other Brexiters are very angry, because they value a fight with "Europe" over the well-being of the people of Gibraltar (and the UK & Spain). www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Thousands join anti-austerity march to protest against Labour’s cuts. Must rebuild after 14 years of Tory govt - no austerity, no real wage/benefit cuts; invest in public services; end profiteering; public ownership of essential services. Redistribute income/wealth. Democratise corporations.
