In 1968 Finland banned for profit education, the few private schools that exist in Finland have to reinvest any profit they make or pay it back to parents. It has been in the Top 3 in education for the last 20 years. There should be no profit in education or healthcare.

I agree with Michael

And no subsequent government has initialised a fraud investigation, merely an investigation into bad decisions This is probably the biggest financial crime in 🇬🇧 history apart from the colonisation of the empire, the plundering of the colonies & abuse of their populations

UK energy bill payers to hand £2bn a year in subsidies to EDF, owned by the French govt, for building two nuclear power stations. That will come handy in keeping energy prices down in France, improving govt finances. Dividends won't be taxed in the UK. All because UK govts oppose public ownership

In 2022 the Tories had the power to Break The Link but they didn’t do it…..

Minister defends 'pragmatic' U-turn on workers' rights. It was a manifesto pledge Why no 'pragmatic' U-turn' on nationalising water, energy, rail rolling stock companies and freight; ending privatisation of the NHS and social care; taxing the super rich?

As good a time as any to be reminded of this www.theguardian.com/politics/201...

“Speaking outside his chateau in France…” I kid you not. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I see that the Hong King authorities have arrested people in connection with the tower block fires. Has anyone been arrested for Grenfell tower?

It’s high time that those in power are held to account.

We’ve mapped the mansion tax. You can see who's paying - which constituency, which postcode - and how many "mansions" are near you. Full interactive map here 👇

🚨Whatever you have planned this weekend make sure you take a couple of minutes to sign and share this petition and if you have already signed, share this post. Let’s get it to the 100,000 needed to secure a Parliamentary debate before Monday.

If you want to read the Budget, the Spectator uploaded the copy that was accidentally leaked... It reminds us that the OBR believe that Brexit reduced UK trade by 15%. www.spectator.co.uk/wp-content/u...

'There is no peace process. This is not negotiations over peace: it is the transmission of surrender demands from Russia with the active facilitation of the United States.' Read @keirgiles.bsky.social analysis on the Trump administration's proposed 28-point peace plan for Ukraine⤵️

If - as Starmer has often said - “what matters is what works” then undoing the worst of Brexit should be a major talking point & a top priority. With every step not taken, the economy sinks further & Farage grows stronger. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Brexit has cost each and every one of us £3,700 a year. But instead of solving the problem, Labour are using Brexit as an excuse to raise your taxes. My message ahead of the Budget: Stop blaming Brexit and start fixing it!

I’m a past winner of the Orwell Prize & won partly because I exposed Vote Leave’s unlawful activities. Michael Gove was its co-convener & refused to answer a single q. He’s now a judge of the prize & our world is truly one that Orwell would recognise bylinetimes.com/2025/11/25/m...

Carole Cadwalladr asks why the Labour gov are choosing not to investigate Russian interference in British elections and referendums

Left: CBI's Rain Newton-Smith, "It feels like its less like we're on the move and more like we're stuck in groundhog day" Right: The Brexit elephant in the room making us poorer

Who remembers that Brexit campaign slogan from 2016? 🤔

It would be good to see these figures on the BBC or other main stream TV outlets, though I doubt that will happen. Farage and his Lies have damaged this country beyond belief. Russia must be loving it.

This petition calling for a public inquiry into Russian influence on UK politics & democracy already has over 30,000 signatures. Let’s get it to 100,000 this week. Please sign and share 🙏 petition.parliament.uk/petitions/74...

“Brexit is costing the UK up to £90bn a year in lost tax revenues, a new analysis shows…The average Briton is also thousands of pounds worse off, leading to calls for ministers to “fix our broken relationship with Europe”. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

🔥 Rachel Reeves says there’s a “hole” in the public finances. A new decade-long Brexit study quantifies it: A 6–8% hit to GDP That's £180bn-£240bn a year It means less tax revenue and so less money for everything. Brexit made Britain MUCH poorer.

Russian influence and those who acted on Russias behalf need to be investigated. Please help.

Rachel Reeves says there’s a “hole” in the public finances. A new decade-long Brexit study explains it: a 6–8% hit to GDP – that's £180bn-£240bn a year – means less tax, less investment and less money for everything else. Brexit made Britain poorer. Much poorer.

Up to 7m extra working-age people could be denied minimum standard of living in retirement if UK state pension triple lock is ditched. Neoliberals squeeze wages and call for real cuts to pension. Thousands will die prematurely. State pension must not be less than the minimum wage archive.ph/UaHIw

“Did Nathan Gill ever say anything you disagree with in return for his bribes from a Kremlin stooge?” “Did you, in your roles as his boss, friend, mentor & party leader, ever question his full-throated support for an enemy of the UK and if not, why not?” You can have those for nothing, lads.

The same people who convinced the British public to back a catastrophic Boris Johnson premiership are now pulling the same trick again with Nigel Farage www.adambienkov.co.uk/p/the-confid...

Farage can now be easily boxed in to a corner where his only ‘defence’ becomes: “Yes I spouted Kremlin propaganda & Putin worship but, unlike Nathan Gill, I didn’t need bribes to do it.” It is, once again, a question of whether interviewers have the temerity to shut down his whining obfuscations.

I should like to see several former Tory government ministers in prison. Not for incompetence, because that isn't a crime, but for misconduct in public office associated with turning the pandemic into an enrichment opportunity and for gross negligence manslaughter.

Russia's ambassador to the UK, Yakovenko, boasted about Brexit to another diplomat: “We have crushed the British to the ground. They are on their knees and will not rise for a very long time” Today, Farage’s close ally, leader of Reform in Wales, was sentenced to 10yrs for taking bribes from Russia.

Suddenly dead silence over criminal Gill, sentenced to 10.5 years for taking bribes from butcher of innocent Ukrainians, Putin, now in Reform UK.👇 #ukpolitics politicsintheuk.substack.com/p/suddenly-d...

From mobiles to insurance and subscriptions, firms exploit customers. Profiteering is rife and inflation is baked in the system. Rip-off practices in water, energy, insurance, internet, banking, insurance, elsewhere. There is lack of competition; poor regulation and toothless regulators.

🔴 The Pro-Trump Bias of the ‘Neutral’ Sources in the Leaked BBC ‘Prescott Dossier’ Byline Times’ analysis of key sources in the memo about the BBC’s alleged ‘progressive bias’ shows it relied on highly partisan, Trump-aligned organisations. @nafeez.bsky.social bylinetimes.com/2025/11/11/p...
