Trump officials cut $2.3bn in Harvard funds after university defies demands to cut diversity programmes, end free speech, muzzle academics and human rights. Dictators always target universities to impose their brand of thought. US Congress missing from resistance.

Rejoining the EU would enhance Britain’s sovereignty. We’d get our seat back at the table where key decisions are taken & have a say on the single market rules that so many UK companies have to follow anyway (as it’s the world’s largest market, where we sell most of our exports).

Fed up of the media, of all types chasing clicks and pageview, but ignoring honesty, truth and accuracy? We have had someone at the Guardian recently confirm they chase the metrics and ignore stories they deem won't get them. This is not OK. We need to improve how we regulate all our media.

Amazon, Meta, Alphabet, Netflix, Apple, Microsoft dodged $278bn US corporation taxes over 10 years. Paid 18.8%, compared with 29.7% US average. Profits shifted to low/no tax jurisdictions. Same companies operate in the UK, dodge taxes, create social squalor. Force companies to publish tax returns.

British Steel crisis shows folly of privatisation and foreign ownership. Lack of investment. Jingye, closely linked with Chinese govt, planned to end UK steel making; process Chinese steel; make UK reliant on Chinese imports. So much UK infrastructure is foreign owned and vulnerable.

It is worth reminding people that the UK Labour government have repeatedly told us that any trade deal with the US would NOT see a lowering of UK food standards. So I don't know why we keep seeing people suggesting it would. We had the business secretary say it this last weekend: 1/4

Six out of every seven children in the UK's most deprived areas living in poverty. Result of political choices - low wages, austerity, unchecked profiteering, benefit cuts, inequitable distribution of wealth. Future blighted. Govts listen to donors/rich, ignore the rest.

Out of 55.2m UK adults 17.8m have annual income of less than £12,570. 1% have more wealth than 70% of the population combined. FOUR Britons have more than 20m people combined. Failure of economic/political policy. Govts still squeeze the poor. Good society can't be built on economic injustice.

America. Your president doesn't understand how tariffs work. Until he does, can I suggest you take away any power that he has. This will all end in tears otherwise.
