When I left school in '81, the income tax rate was 33p in the pound.
It is now only 20p in the pound.
I'm not saying it needs to go back to that level right away, but I can see a case for raising it by about 1p every year for five years, then look again.

For centuries the Baltic States lived under the Russian threat. This must change.

I want to believe that dictatorship is not in the DNA of the Russian people.

We need to support Ukraine’s success, also with 🇪🇺 integration, which can inspire Russian people for change.

The war is Ukraine’s fault because they haven’t shown enough “gratitude” to Donald Trump. This is like watching a Godfather sequel where the Don has advanced dementia.
