The 50 wealthiest families own more wealth than the bottom 50% of the population.

How can this Labour Government say this is a "cost of living" budget and refuse to tax the rich?

They care about protecting power and wealth. And cost of living is a buzz phrase for them. Dire.

7/ Why is Trump bothering to intimidate the BBC with the threat of a €1 billion libel suit?

Because the BBC has a very large audience in the US, where it is trusted considerably more than all major US news brands.

Truthful reporting is anathema to autocrats.

Delighted about this result!
I hope it's time the US learns 'democratic socialism' is actually good for the majority. An expanded political spectrum must (surely?!) be good for the US - and the world.

May our own leaders take note... ✌🏼
