Not sure if Man United owner Jim Ratcliffe will see this being as he literally migrated to Monaco to avoid paying tax in the UK, but we wanted to put this up outside the stadium anyway….

A court has ruled that the government's authoritarian ban on Palestine Action was unlawful.

Time to stop criminalising the people protesting a genocide - and start ending the UK's complicity.

Oh yes, why would anyone be offended by tax exile Jim Ratcliffe commentnts on immigrants — asks tax exile Isabel Oakeshott.

Nothing says “national responsibility” like relocating your tax bill. Either they don’t see the hypocrisy or don’t care But please, lecture us on civic duty from offshore. 👇🤷‍♀️

Ash Sarkar, "Jim Ratcliffe is a stinking hypocrite"

"He became a tax resident of Monaco to save £4 billion that could have gone towards British schools, the British NHS, towards British defence, instead he decided he wanted that money for his own pocket"

Enough with the outrage theatre.
If Reform stands for ordinary working people, why did all their MPs vote against the Workers’ Rights Bill?

You can’t wedge immigration into that one. It’s just the record.

Also, Britain has apparently been “colonised by immigrants”, according to a billionaire who lives in Monaco.

I get why Matt posts this nonsense every day, outrage pays.
None of this is on the current government.
Open borders? Brexit.
Soft-on-crime chaos? Tories.
Highest taxes since the 1940s? Tories.
Shafted pensioners? Tories.
Farmers driven to despair? Brexit.
Hotels for migrants? Brexit + Tory failure.
