Government needs to be fining or taxing companies making harmful plastics.

Every person on the planet has countless numbers of microplastic particles in their body and we have no idea how much damage this will do over a lifetime. Yet plastic production is still increasing.

The plastic inside us: how microplastics may be reshaping our bodies and minds

The particles are in our blood, brains and guts – and scientists are only beginning to learn what they do

So as our country’s key businesses are ‘cyber’ attacked by Russia and China. We have Reform and the Tories attacking everything the Labour government does. Along with their pals in the media. This is not normal. This is dangerous.

Things to do in the future:

1. Putting them all on trial for crimes against humanity at the Hague

2. Totally reforming entire government to root out corruption and abuse of power so this bullshit never happens again

3. At some point you’d imagine, brunch

The Portland Frog army has now infiltrated Tulsa, OK and they’ve made an unlikely alliance with the T-Rex infantry and Sharks on Hoverboards mercenary forces.

This is truly terrifying.

I guess talking about Brexit damage is a start. But insisting we make this shitshow ‘work’ and forcing taxpayers to pay for some of the inevitable and ongoing loss feels like a wildly illogical response to the problem.

Photos of Wes Streeting above article and Farage below…

Text: It comes after The Independent revealed in March that Brexit had cost UK business £37bn a year as the result of a 5 per cent drop in trade with the EU.

There’s been an active cover-up since the mid-2000s to conceal the Epstein Files.

The damning info from the DOJ’s Office of Professional Responsibility’s investigation & report into allegations of professional misconduct by the federal prosecutors, including Alex Acosta.

On the centenary of Thatcher's birth, there have been predictable calls for a memorial to her memory. But Britain's 2300 food banks serve that purpose already.

Garcia: It’s really shocking for him to essentially lean into this possibility of a pardon. And we know why that’s the case, right? He wants to control what she says. He wants her—someone who has a ton of information on what actually happened—to perhaps… omit memories she might have of the president

Crazy that we hear about Train Drivers who get £60,000 a year for driving a train.

But we never hear about the boss of Tesco who gets £30,000 a day and doesn't even pay tax in the UK.

Or the £250m a day that the likes of Amazon, Vodafone, BP and Shell don't pay in tax.
