Dounreay nuclear power station last produced electricity 30+ years ago, yet decontamination is expected to last until the 2070s and cost £8Bn, with full decontamination of the site estimated to take more than 300 years. Now Westminster wants to build *more* nuclear power stations in Scotland.

Ending the two-child benefit cap in today's budget is huge, wonderful news for the 500,000 children lifted out of poverty and the 1 million who will face less deep poverty. But the other 4.1m children in poverty deserve the same. This was the right start: now do the rest.

The migration "panic" of 2015 gave us Brexit in 2016. The "panic" of 2023 (which GB News were desperately trying to poke and stoke against the evidence this morning) is supposed to deliver Farage as PM.

A reminder that almost all of the "migration crisis" of the last 18 months is a manufactured one – and probably says more about how much X has poisoned our politics than anything about realities on the ground.
NEW: Net migration falls sharply to 204,000 in the year to June.
That’s a fall from 649,000 in the year to June 2024. It is a drop of nearly 80% from its 2023 peak.

Starmer's government redefines "terrorism" to include for the first time civil disobedience and protest.
Then it declares it's scrapping the ancient right to trial by jury (because juries too often acquit protesters).
In a rigged justice system, injustice is assured.
