Wow - those are quite phenomenal headlines given the details of the story.

Totally untrue garbage from @thetimes.com & @dailymail.co.uk today - smear dressed up as journalism. Some facts:
- There is no “£900 desk”
- my constituency office has Ikea desks/chairs
- we significantly underspent the new MPs allowance to set up an office
www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/...
Treasury minister leading budget plans spent £900 on desk
Torsten Bell, who is working with Rachel Reeves to fill a £30 billion hole in finances, also used his parliamentary expenses to claim £600 for three chairs

“The links between Trump, Brexit and Russia aren’t a hoax”

Everyone who cares about democracy in the UK & US should be following Carole and paying attention.
It’s absolutely disgusting how badly the media and institutions have failed us all.
NEW: The cleavage shot no UK tabloid will print.

If you want to understand how truly ignorant and absent the British media is on Russian interference, read on.

A Kremlin spy scandal, a trove of bikini shots....and still nothing but tumbleweed.

They will tell you that the richest 1% pay 29% of tax.

But they won't tell you that they get 48% of the money.

Or that if they paid the same 47% tax as everyone else, they'd be paying 68% of the tax.

But I just have.

Beth Rigby: "Keir Starmer has changed his top team more than I've had hot dinners."

In two years before Starmer we had 3 PMs, 4 Chancellors, 3 Foreign Secretaries, 5 Home Secretaries, 5 Education Secretaries, 5 Cabinet Secretaries, etc. - total 221 ministerial departures.

Maybe Beth is on a diet.

Silenced? Again! NDA and SLAPP … methods of control?
Hats off and solidarity to @danneidle.bsky.social who is facing an enormous libel claim - arguably a SLAPP - for his investigation into a tax avoidance (& potentially criminal evasion) scheme.

He's published the court filings, an important move given how much of this usually happens in darkness:
I’m being sued for £8m for publishing a report on tax avoidance
Barrister Setu Kamal is suing me for £8 million over our Arka Wealth investigation. We’re applying to strike it out as a SLAPP and will not remove the article.

A massive chunk of which we owe to ourselves(QE). The rest “mainly” to pension funds… unless you’re suggesting we don’t have secure investments for pensioners. Ask AI “ who does the uk owe its national debt”
