Holding govts to ransom.
Billionaire owner of Betfred says if UK govts raises tax it will close gambling shops.
Wants someone else to bear social cost of gambling.
Less tax on gambling means more for shareholders, execs.
Any big business not holding govt to ransom?

Sir Keir Starmer.
Our PM.
He's hard working with proven experience of getting things done.
Hated by the hard left as he's not Corbyn.
Hated by the far right as he solve the issues they are exploiting.
Hated by the media just because he's Labour.
All lie about him.
So let's show him some love!

Or people complain it is not quick enough or not exactly to the precise standards they want.
Governments don't have to be perfect. They just need to be moving everything and everyone along in the right direction.
Which is starting to happen after years of being static at best or going backwards!

That £900k house in Frinton. Has anyone mentioned how it was paid for yet? Any laws broken, or all above board?
Anyone investigating? Media grown a conscience? Any journalist working for the British people? Anyone?
Half way through another week of silence then.
