Finding it very hard to feel sympathy for these parents complaining about the Labour plan to change VAT rules for private schools.

@ianRobinson I can understand the whole “how will we find them a state school place if there are no places in our area” part, which obviously needs to be addressed, but the rest of that video just reinforces the need to curtail private schools

@pilky I’ve no issues with the schools. They should just pay VAT on the service like other businesses.

Plus we should fund the state sector more.

Donald Trump Stopped Legal Team Pursuing 'Winning' Strategy: Attorney.
Former federal prosecutor Renato Mariotti suggested on CNN that the former president would not permit his legal team to pursue a "winning" strategy in his falsifying business records case, which may have harmed his hopes of the jury returning a not guilty verdict.

Trois listes écologiques, dans les années 80 je pouvais comprendre. Mais de nos jours l'écologie devrait faire parti des programmes, comme l'éducation.
Écologie du centre ça veut dire quoi ?

That national service idea is a dead cat on the table.

Spend a week talking about that rather than how shit the Conservatives have been in Government.

Interesting perspective on Merrick Garland.

tldr: He was working on the Jan 6 investigation from the day he got there but was roadblocked by trump lackeys in the DOJ and FBI and had to overcome all of it to get things moving.

The legacy media continues to undermine democracy by giving voice to random #terrorists who promote #trump with cute slogans voiced on CNN this morning.

"Anyone better than #Biden"

Get ready for the Unified Reich. The legacy media has decided to promote click bait profits over #Democracy.

John Redwood isn’t standing for reelection either. Happy days. He was one of the worst ones. One of the Bastards referred to by John Major I think.

77 conservative MPs are not standing for reelection.
