He tanks the stock market, and he and his rich buddies buy low… Then he pauses the tariffs, and stocks rise… He and his rich buddies sell high. Rinse and Repeat…over, and over again. It isn’t Rocket Science… It’s actually criminal.

Scientists are asking the question, is Donald Trump the first person to have a negative IQ.

Yep

Why doesn't Labour tax the billionaires?

The fight for democracy is now #Musk #Tesla

I don't think Man United'll need a hunnerd thou capacity in League One.

The government is cracking down on benefit fraud by spying on claimants' bank accounts. But tax fraud is much bigger. Prof Richard Murphy shows how to crack down on tax dodgers, saving billions. [4-min read] @eastangliabylines.co.uk

When Rishi Sunak made the Vaccine deal with Moderna as Chancellor, he had up to £530m invested in Moderna. Now Michelle Mone is desperately bringing it up. Like if you want Mone on trial. RT if you want them both facing the music.

All around the world Electricity prices are going down, but in the UK they are going up, and the Water bills too. We live on scam island.

This is terrifying - it suggests that there is a much bigger picture at play here - where the vision is to overthrow democracy and replace it with corporate, for profit technological entities where algorithms set the rules. It contends even Trump isn’t aware - he’s just a useful idiot in effect.

Ofgem’s epic cock-up hands the energy fat cats £3.9bn to swim in Scrooge McDuck style, while grandma’s left shivering and wondering if Mr Fluffy’s ‘poultry feast in jelly’ will be more edible with a spoonful of Bisto added to it. Cheers, regulators, you utter dicks.

The Glasgow 49ers: Strip five titles. The other one belongs to Sevco.

Scrap austerity – tax the super-rich instead Britain can’t rebuild with more cuts – a wealth tax on the richest is the fair alternative to funding public services and growth yorkshirebylines.co.uk/business/eco...

Any normal country would put all of Thames Water's management in jail, repossess the lot, and not pay a penny.

I've not shared this on BlueSky yet. Fun Game, I stay away quite a bit with work, lots of hotels for a single night. Every single room in stay in I put a child lock on GBNews. Petty, yes! Public service, maybe? Satisfying knowing there'll be red faced gammons starved of their fuel for hatred.

Thames Water, which is over £16 BILLION in debt, has just been granted a £3 billion rescue loan. Last December it was still paying fat dividends to bosses and shareholders. This corporate greed and entitlement needs to be stopped. As I’ve said before: It’s fucking WATER.

Elon Musk is requesting all the IRS data so he can see all the taxes everybody has paid. One of the first things the Nazis did was go through Social Security data and find everybody who had never worked. They then murdered every disabled person who hadn't.

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024. You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right? Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year. You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

Imagine a world where X Money becomes the government’s payment platform Amazing insight from Asha Rangappa and the FreedomAcademy open.substack.com/pub/asharang...

2019-2024: £44bn lost to fraud in UK Govt depts under the Tories - often run by members now in Badenoch's Shadow Cabinet. Contracts for cronies, PPE procurement, COVID loans & furlough scheme, Eat Out to Help Out, R&D tax credits. Ministers ignored concerns. Who is called to account?

Thames Water prices will be hiked by £19 a month from April. Sewage will be dumped in rivers, leaks will go unplugged, dividends will be paid, cost of servicing,£17bn debt passed to customers, execs will be rewarded for fleecing people. Predatory capitalism. www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...

Are Spurs gonna Arsenal it, or are Arsenal gonna Spurs it? Hmm... 🤔

People need to wake up and realise that Capitalism is about charging people as much as possible to NOT provide things. US Health Insurance and Insurance in general being the best examples. Without a Government who stop them, you will be paying everything to get nothing.

80 years ago Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini wanted a complete merger of business and politics to create a single entity that controlled everything. We are now very close to their dream being fulfilled.

“All donations that originate from abroad, no matter who is the final donor, should be banned. Only UK citizens should be allowed to donate to British political organisations. This would, by necessity mean no donations from private companies; PLCs, LTDs..” eastangliabylines.co.uk/politics/fig...

This is a failure of democracy. 82% of the public want water back into public ownership, but we weren’t part of the decision. Now we’re stuck bailing water companies out for decades of recklessness. We need a new water system where everyone has a say. www.theguardian.com/money/2024/d...

The Brexit Curse: Brexit cost UK £27bn in lost trade in first two years. British exports fell by 6.4%, imports by 3.1%. OBR forecast a 15% slump in trade, leading to a 4% reduction in national income, over the longer term. Self-inflicted harm. Rejoin the EU. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Labour keep trotting out the excuse that a lack of money forces them to do it when announcing controversial policies. By far the single biggest factor hurting GDP is Brexit, yet Labour are taking a teaspoons-of-water-on-a-forest-fire approach to it. No Brexit honesty = absolutely zero credibility.

Norway 🇳🇴 ❤️ We need other teams to follow their lead!

This makes no sense. Jail her

New Christmas lights just went up in Clacton. (Farage is still the MP who makes most money from second jobs. By a long way.)

"Office of..." quangos are a scam designed to protect the corporations instead of the punters.

Enough of this coffee in bed malarkey: I'm racing at 8am. A wee warm up in Poland on stage forty something of Around The World methinks.

In 1970 the UK and Norway were roughly equal, almost no debt, and owned all their Public Services. Now the UK owns nothing and has £3tn of debt. While Norway still owns everything and has the equivilant per person of £10tn. That's how privatisation 'works'.

Recently discovered the significance of Heart Rate Variability (HRV). Turns out that a really effective way of fucking up your HRV is drinking alcohol in the evening. Who knew?

A car park operator has dropped its £1,906 court claim against a woman who took more than five minutes to pay for parking! It’s now time for the Government to intervene & investigate the Car Parking Wild West, which I now controlled by a bunch of cowboys! www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
